    Why does everyone want to fight Khan if he doesnt have a belt? Crawford, Brook, Danny Garcia, Manny Pacquiao, Broner wanted him at one time. Why doesnt anyone call out Thurman, Porter, obviously Spence is avoided.

    I would like him to rematch Danny Garcia.

    Good name to have on your record, decent money. Likely KO

    Khan was considered a top fighter before he started picking up losses, his hand speed is amazing and I think this impressed fans back in the day who can`t get through their heads now that he has been exposed as a flawed talent, people stay stuck in the past for some reason, first impressions last.

    The answer is extremely simple.

    He's a big payday and an easy win.

    He is a bigger draw than Wilder and Fury

    Decent payday, recognisable name, guaranteed a highlight reel KO even if you're not that big a puncher.

    Good money and looks great in the highlights reel. People know they have great chance of knocking khan out.

    Khan is an easy sell and a KO waiting to happen. Crawford wanted to fight Garcia but Haymon and daddy won't let him. Looking at the non-Haymon options at welter, Khan is probably the biggest name.

    He has an irresistible risk/reward ratio.

    This. Despite Khan being on the downside of his career he’s more of an established name than Thurman, Porter, or Spence as far as the public is concerned.
