It didn’t exceed expectations. Depending on whether one went into Saturday’s Jr. Welterweight unification as pessimist or optimist, it may have failed to meet them.

Former junior welterweight champion Junior Witter (37-3, 22KOs), who lost two of his last three bouts and inactive since August 2009, has been approached for a possible shot at WBA 140-pound champion Amir Khan, according to Amir's father Shah Khan. Team Khan has been having a lot of trouble attempting to secure an opponent for Khan's next fight which takes place on April 16 at the MEN Arena in Manchester, England.

Micky Ward had more than his fair share of wars during his 51-fight career (38-13 with 27 KOs), the former WBU light-middleweight title-holder signed out of the sport with 30 rounds of gritty boxing against the warrior's warrior, Arturo Gatti. Both men gave it their all during this trilogy, especially in their first meeting, won by Ward via majority-decision, a fight in which Ward added to a reputation built on pulsating fights against Shea Neary and Emanuel Augustus.

Amir Khan told Sky Sports that he has put the split with conditioning coach Alex Ariza behind him as he moves forward with the next defence of his WBA light-welterweight title. Ariza, however, has decided to renew hostilities with Team Khan. Ariza told The Daily Telegraph that Khan owes him money, Alex also had a blast at Amir's father, Shan Khan.

Brendon Smith, the manager of lightweight contender Michael Katsidis (27-3, 22KOs), wonders if WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan (24-1, 17KOs) is serious about a fight. Khan told Sky Sports over the weekend that he planned to contact the Katsidis camp to discuss a potential fight in England on April 16. Both Smith and Katsidis are very interested in the fight. But Smith would not be surprised if Khan is just name-dropping Katsidis in order to close a deal with one of the other boxers in the running, like John Murray or Lamont Peterson.

Timothy Bradley is targeting a showdown with Britain's Amir Khan after adding the WBC light-welterweight title to his WBO crown with a technical decision victory over Devon Alexander in Detroit on Saturday night.

BoxingScene.com caught up with former 140-pound champion Kendall "Rated R" after his first round destruction of Lenin Arroyo at the Silverdome in Pontiac, Michigan. The fight took place on the Devon Alexander-Timothy Bradley unification undercard.

If everything goes as planned, we could very well see two big summer showdowns in the junior welterweight division. WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan could face WBO/WBC champion Timothy Bradley on July 30. The other possibly fight would pit former champion Devon Alexander (21-1, 13KOs) against Marcos Maidana (29-2, 27KOs). Golden Boy Promotions, who promoted Khan and Maidana, are very interested in putting together both fights.

Manny Pacquiao fight shotcaller Bob Arum took a long look at Tim Bradley as the Californian retained his undefeated status against previously unbeaten Devon Alexander and liked what he saw with one glaring exception.

WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan has given his opinion on Saturday's unification between 140-pound champions Devon Alexander and Timothy Bradley. The fight ended in the tenth round after Alexander was unable to see from his right eye and the fight was stopped. Bradley would win a ten round technical decision and unify the WBO/WBC titles.
