This would be more appealing to Khan imo, it would give him the chance to become a 2 division champ aswell as rios, 138 catchweight for the wba 135 and 140 title....A legit match-up or a farce?

No announcement yet.
Would it be a farce it Khan-Rios was made at 138lb Catch-weight for both titles?

legit matchup imo. i think rios should just move up though. guerrero and soto moved to 140. jmm isn't fighting at lw atm. so this is really his best option, no real challenges left for rios at 135 imo. perhaps khan faces the guerrero/maidana winner and rios takes a tuneup for the winner of that fight at 140. if only man...

he also said that if he is on Nov's card (which he is) and JMM loses he will offer up his belt for JMM to come down to 135 for one last there at that weight. He considers JMM the best (after him) and wants to fight the best before moving up

6-9 months ago now way he was ready in my eyes
now? I honestly think he beats JMM but I have huge bias because he and I are real close
while people crap on him for the lack of maturity outside of the ring (which in a lot of ways is overstated but you have to know him to get it) inside the ring especially against Acosta he showed composure to go along with a skillset he will never get credit for (an amazing inside game). His footwork has improved tons because even though he is slow he manages to stay in front of his opponent with constant pressure
