This story even got onto the front page of the Yahoo UK home site earlier and obviously it only has a positive impact on Khan in that his opponents are seen as resorting to these types of methods.
Khan can now tout himself as the man that's feared so much they have to juice up to face him.
First Peterson. Then Bradley ran away and conveniently took a fight with Pac, where neither of them go through the random testing.
I hope that before Mayweather-Khan is made Mayweather doesn't pull some 'vacation' ***** again where he takes his stuff well in advance to bypass the tests.
Khan's the only man at the moment that's truly Klean. Subjecting himself to random testing AND doesn't go on suspicious lengthy 'vacations' to juice up.
EVERYONE SHOULD SUPPORT KHAN FOR HIS CONDUCT!
Who did JMM fight at 147 to prove himself for Floyd? Just sayin'
Juan Manuel Marquez is Juan Manuel Marquez, he doesn't need to prove anything he's already done that his whole career.
I think they could get it for £75, tbh. Limond hasn't done enough to deserve such a high purse...
the other £25 is from sponsorship... god, you don't know **** bout boxin ;)
and then theres obviously the £5.27 tv money and the £2.12 from burger and drink sells, thats career high earning right there!
Well if he fought both of them on the same Night at the same time that would be legit and would pave the way for a shot at Money May IMO. they could probaby make that fight for about £100 as well. :boxing:

Limonds not been on form, he's 1-2 in his last 3 fights, else he'd be legit as fuck. As for Prescott, I dunno. It would be, and it wouldn't be at the same time, if you get what I mean.
He's been beaten by Alvarado and McCloskey (:rofl:) recently, so it wouldn't be the best fight for Khan, but at the same time, it would be good for him to avenge that loss. I'd love to see it just because I'd be hoping Khan got flattened again :rofl:

Khan-Prescott 2 would be aight, as would Khan-Limond 2.

That would probably be a lot better than pulling in some out of shape, last minute replacement. Although, a lot of people would be pissed off after having spent money on tickets, flights etc :lol1:
Khan-Prescott 2 would be aight, as would Khan-Limond 2.
If Peterson is off, they should just scrap May 19th, scrap Broner-Sykes as well, and just bring Khan back in July before Ramadan starts, against Brook or Alexander.

The Pacquiao fight could happen very soon to be fair, Pac has to beat Bradley then they're clear to fight if they stop *****ing. I think Mayweather would get more credit for Sergio Martinez at 154 than he would for beating Khan at 147. Martinez hasn't lost a fight at 154, if memory serves me correctly, where Khan hasn't even fought at 147.
If he isn't fighting Pacquiao or Martinez... then there isn't much out there for him. Canelo and Khan are the best out there for him, and neither of those match-ups is fantastic.
Pacquiao will only fight Floyd as his last fight as Arum want's to screw as much money out of Pac as he possibly can So that's out for at least another year or two.
Martinez or Canelo are solid fights but I think the weight will be an Issue, he would probably fight canelo at 154 but he hasn't beaten anyone of note to deserve a Floyd fight either.
as for Martinez yeah that's a fight that would work, but I don't see Mayweather taking it at 160 and at anything less than 160
he won't get any credit if he wins.
Martinez at 154 and Khan at 147 are pretty much the same to me.
If Peterson is off, they should just scrap May 19th, scrap Broner-Sykes as well, and just bring Khan back in July before Ramadan starts, against Brook or Alexander.
Than, he could return in November or December, and fight someone like Berto-Ortiz II winner or Guerrero, or something.
If Khan were to beat 2 Top 10 WW, it'd be a legit fight. Khan has still beaten Kotelnyk (WBA JWW champ/#3 JWW), Malingaggi (Top 10 WW), Maidana (Top 10 JWW), McCloskey (Top 10 JWW), Judah (IBF JWW champ/Top 10 JWW). And he should have had the win over Peterson in the first fight as well, he won that fight.
Their first fight was close as hell, I think it really could have gone either way to be honest.
I dunno, he'd have to get a couple of very good wins for the fight to be considered legit, imo. It's better than not fighting though, I guess.
hmm maybe your right about Alexander but It would look good if he dominated him while Bradley couldn't, I think Khan would lose against Floyd but it could look a bit like Floyd- Judah for 6 or so rounds so It could be interesting.
Floyd won't get credit for the martinez fight unless he fights at Martinez's weight which he won't and I'm pretty sure the Pacquiao fight isn't happening (at least for another 2 years)
So there's not really a lot about for Floyd IMO.

Alexander is a Light-Welterweight with one fight at 147, wouldn't really improve Khans stock as a Welterweight at all.
To be fair, no matter who Khan beats, a lot of people won't credit the win for Mayweather. Khan hasn't really proven himself to be that good, so it would be a pretty weak fight. There are only a few fights out there that will really improve Floyds legacy, Pacquiao and Martinez. Although, I doubt Martinez will happen because of the weight difference.

Floyd always said he wanted to fight in England at least once and Khan- Mayweather would make serious Bank.
but there's not really a lot about for Floyd IMO.
still has a long way to go and a lot to prove before Mayweather even considers him
He need some IMPRESSIVE WINS over TOP FIGHTERS at 147, right now I don't think he is on Mayweather's Radar, Canelo will probably get a shot at Mayweather before Khan
