During his recent trip to Las Vegas to watch Nonito Donaire destroy Fernando Montiel isn two rounds, WBO/WBC junior welterweight champion Timothy Bradley (27-0, 11KOs) sent a message to his WBA rival, Amir Khan (24-1, 17KOs). Bradley wants to fight him next and a date of July 23 has been set aside. The Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas is on hold for the potential fight. Khan has a scheduled title defense on April 16 against Paul McCloskey at the MEN Arena in Manchester, England.

"You will probably see me in the ring on July 23, and don't miss it. Hopefully I can get Khan in the ring with me, so Khan stop running [because] it's time to get it on baby...just stop running. Stop running out there Khan," Bradley said.
