    If Warren is so sure Khan has "come of age" and is the real deal he should put him in against Prescott. Any fighter who loses and who genuinely believes it was a one off, that he made a "mistake" will want a re-match. If that doesn't happen we will all know why.

    none of the above.

    i think he'll fight for the ebu. the guy who beat thaxton looks quite beatable.

    afterwards, for his US debut, he'll fight katsidis or david diaz. risky fights but winnable.

    Doing some research on the ratings, came across this guy

    Antonio DeMarco 20-1-1 (14KO)
    #5 by the WBC
    #3 by the WBO

    Looking at some videos of him he seems quite beatable.

    If not; Meezache or Prescott

    DeMarco was on the Vic-Arce undercard, tough kid. I'm sure there was a thread on here afterwards asking how well he'd get on with Khan. Lemme try and find it.....

    I'd like to see him fight Presscot or Katsidis.

    Giving that FW has so few names left in his stable, I doubt Amir will be going up agaisnt anyone to dangerous any time soon though.

    Katsidis is a favourite of mine. Would like to see Khan fight him but is he not part of the LW tourney?

    What! no option for jon murray or thaxton. Funny that, it seems like theve dissappeared together with the best british lightweight debtate from the forums.

    the poll is for next likely opponent not who he should fight.

    we won't see khan in with opponents currently operating at the british domestic level.

    Make the European title fight. He could beat the guy that beat Thaxton. Then he could face Murray and he could beat him as well! Those are the sort of fights and belts he needs while he improves more because he still isn't ready for what JMM, Diaz etc can bring.
