Which fight would you prefer to see and why? What would be your number one choice of opponent for Khan's very next bout?
There's also Juan Urango, Kendell Holt, Lamont Peterson, Joel Casamayor, Demetrius Hopkins etc..
My mistake, I meant lightweight.. At lw I think Marquez still beats Khan (assuming he hasn't got old overnight) but at lww, Khan's division of choice now, he might have a more realistic chance. I think Marquez would still have a good chance himself though. Might turn out to be a close SD like the last Pac fight at this stage.
i cant see khan boiling himself down too LW again if im honest
at 140 id pick him too make marquez look as old as he is,i think the mayweather fight and the weight could have taken alot out of him
marquez has never fought at LWW,the 2 fights you mentioned were at LW
id rather see him face a young guy too be honest,but marquez is a big name and i think at this point it could be the right fight for amir

I mean Marquez did KO two boxers who had never been KO'd before just before he fought Mayweather - Joel Casamayor and Juan Diaz at light welter, in late 08 and early 09, and he lost a close SD to Pacquiao a fight before that.. I wonder if the Mayweather fight was a little deceptive in that Marquez just didn't have enough time to adjust to the weight? I think he proved himself pretty convincingly at light welterweight though..

for his sake i hope its not kendall...
Me too. I want Khan to fight good opposition, but Holt is just a bad motherfucker - Bradley won their fight, but he gave him hell at various points.
Hence, since I think I've said before that Holt beats Maidana, it should be the latter who Khan faces next. Jumping in with Holt now would be insane.
JJM. Marquez isnt the fighter at 140+ Im sure Khan would have a big size and speed advantage.
I see Khan being too big and quick for marquez and outpointing him or maybe even picking up a late stoppage!
Its a risky fight. Can see him fighting the winner of Malignaggi Diaz.
I wouldn't put it past marquez, he is obviously a A+ fighter, but like i said before i believe he isn't the fighter he was. Reminds me of the Khan vs Barrera. big risk but well worth it.

Zab, he WANTS the fight and he has nothing to lose in this fight and every thing to gain. If we will ever see the best Zab Judah it will be in this fight.
I can't imagine Zab travelling well.
he fought Witter there.....plus I think Amir beats Zab and that could really boost his confidence.....wins over a few vets for young star could do wonders!!
The thing with Hatton is that he gets knocked out well.
I mean he literally goes out on his back.
It's my favourite thing about him. You could almost sense that the thought that ran through his head when he threw that leaping left hook against PBF was: Ah, fook it.
ROCKSTAR energy drinks. Party like a ROCKSTAR!
I'd like to see Khan send Hatton into retirement.
