    Clearly the Mayweather fight wont happen now and i dont see the Brook fight happening any time soon, so who be the best opponent for Khan to face next ????

    Fight Thurman Brook Bradley or Porter and overshadow the joke that is Mayweather Berto.

    I'd guess Thurman or Porter

    Or he fails to fight anyone of note in preparation to jump ship to Top Rank for fights with Timothy & Pacquiao next year. Going to be hard for him to get them fights without signing his soul to Arum though.

    He has plenty of options he just needs to stop with his delusions

    Khan needs to fight Thurman for anyone to take him seriously. Stop handpicking opponents with 30% to 40% KO rates and prove that you have 'improved' with Hunter as the trainer. Because fighting the line of guys he has fought under Hunter doesn't show that.

    He will seek out the lightest possible puncher with the best record to try to continue the illusion....and he will still struggle.

    His options are

    Brook
    Thurman
    Porter
    Bradley
    Garcia
    Pacquio
    He has a ton he just needs to get in the ring already

    Cesar Cuenca then? (debut WW)



    lol if Khan does that i'm no longer a fan...supported him all the way but that would be the final straw. Won't happen though.

    Brook would be the best fight for fans. due to the beef between them it would be entertaining to see the run up etc.
    i dont think khan beats porter, porter lands a couple of khan and he may be on jelly legs. Porters style is not the best for khan.
    i'd also like to see khan fight bradley. Both fighters never give in

    By the end of the year I see 2 fights in a mix and match between Thurman-Khan-Garcia and Khan

    Khan Brook will happen next year for sure if both of them fight decent opponents and stay unbeaten till summer next year.

    June/July 2016 book it. AJ on the undercard along with lots of british titlists and top prospects and still much cheaper than a shoddy Mayweather PPV!

    I see Khan putting a boxing lesson on thurman.

    Then next May/June he will put a boxing lesson on brook.

    Then after that, no one ever will doubt the king
