Promoter Don King told WBA junior welterweight champion to stop hiding from real competition. King promotes WBC champion Devon Alexander. He tried to make a fight between Alexander and Khan. He tells Steve Bunce of The Mirror that Khan ran away from the fight.
"I told Amir that he has to come out of hiding and fight one of the champions," King said. "I had a fight with my world champion Devon Alexander lined up but Amir ran away from his promoter Frank Warren and ran away from the deal."
"Amir is a nice young man but he needs to come out of hiding and get on the bus to the big time. There are bigger and better and far more beautiful fights out there for a gifted boxer like Amir. He needs to look at all the other champions at his weight and make a decision - does he want to be a secret or be a British hero?"
