At this point, British superstar Amir Khan (30-3, 19 KOs) wants a big name, any big name, for a planned return in the month of May.
Khan is willing to face any of the top available names at welterweight and even called out WBC middleweight champion Miguel Cotto for a catch-weight fight at 155-pounds. In recent months, Khan has actively pursued welterweight title fights with both Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao. There are ongoing negotiations for a May fight between Mayweather and Pacquiao, with Khan universally viewed as a 'Plan B' option for both boxers.
Khan added two more names to his wanted list. He's willing to get in the ring with former champions Juan Manuel Marquez and Timothy Bradley - who are both currently sitting back without scheduled fights.
“Mayweather, Pacquiao, Cotto, Bradley, Marquez all available to fight around May.. I’m ready and want to fight the best #LetsMakeItHappen,” Khan wrote to his social network followers.
Several years ago, there were serious negotiations for Khan to get in the ring with Bradley, but nothing ever happened. The same goes for Marquez. Golden Boy Promotions attempted to make Khan-Marquez a few years ago. At the time, the Mexican veteran rejected the fight.
