    Suggestions, apparently Lamont tested positive for both A and B samples, and VADA have dropped him from their client list. Question arises, if he tested postive in March for A sample and in April for B sample, why did it take so long for this to be made public knowledge? GBP have apparently contacted Carson Jones about facing Khan on May 19th, but his team said no chance - he's facing Brook on July 7th. Anyway, who could step in against Khan at such short notice? suggestions?

    Imagine if Khan said "**** it" and fought someone like Matthysse, he would instantly win back almost all of the respect he lost.

    How about Theophane, he's ranked 11 by IBF - all others I don't think had realistic, date wise, Theophane is scheduled to fight on 19th May anyway in England.

    Probably the worst candidate, but just for the money he takes it.

    And you'd like to see Broner go up two weightclasses to LWW I presume in that case? :blood

    True, but Theopjane is tarining for a May 19th fight in Engalnd to defend his British title - he last a split decision to Danny Garcia and has been on ESPN few times, but vegas worthy, me thinks not - stranger things have happened - plus Amir's mate Ricky promotes Theophane.
