    What can he do???

    Khans not gonna be in with Marquez next and the other 2 belts are vacant and being fought four in the next fe mounths, fighting for a European title or Alex Arthur, will not be enough to get decent numbers.

    He is going to need another big fight on any PPV card and the only ones i can think of our a Prescott rematch or a top opponent like Katsidis or Diaz. Warren does not have Macceranelli or Cook to buffer hes undercards and probably only Kevin Mitchell is close to chalenging for a World Title.

    the whole reason we saw Khan vs Barrera was because the presscott and ***an fights did **** numbers on PPV, so Khan will be in with someone good next.

    Katsidis or david diaz would be good, but very beatable opponents imho.

    i thought he would go for the european. maybe they'll have it on the same night as a big US card to validate the ppv.

    fight Marquez......

    I'd give khan a 40% chance to win as well......

    Marquez ain't overrated but is definitely not unbeatable for khans style, khans speed could nick the fight

    David Diaz is the best possible opponent to make Khan look good. He's not a huge puncher (well...enough to hurt Khan, but Khan could likely survive the few shots he has to take, as last night)

    But he's so ****ing SLOW. I can see Khan doing the same as Pac did.

    Prescott rematch.

    I'd still favour Prescott to get Khan out of there.

    Even though Prescott looks average at best.

    Didn't Sky Sports say he was world class last night?

    There is no sense in JMM wanting to fight Khan. He's after Pac, FMJ, Hatton etc - do we really think he'll drop down a level and fight Khan. Gimme a break. JMM would rather vacate than fight Khan. Khan wont go for European. The WBO belt will be his to go for in the summer. Interestingly Katsidis is no.2 wbo contender. If wins in this l-w tourney that might set it up. That's a winnable fight for Khan if he stays outta range coz Katsidis ain't got a plan b.

    He'll be pushed into fighting for the WBO title or a proper eliminator. The money men wont see the sense in him fighting Mezzache after fighting Barrera.

    Arthur's in the WBO top 10.

    Mezaache - Hennessy has options on him for Thaxton rematch.

    Arthur will have a couple of testers at lightweight before making the plunge. But a ranking of 9 is a good start for him.

    Warren should put him in with Juan Diaz. Diaz has proven himself to be a capable but vastly over rated fighter and after two bad losses it would be great for Khan to pick up the pieces and make a real statement to America. Khan can go onto be a great unified champion but he needs one or two more tests before he takes a world title plunge. I would be ok with an AA fight but can not see it happening.
