What are your thoughts on this one? I personally dont like the match up, i'd much rather see him face Devon or Guerrero IF he is indeed going to fight Mayweather Jr in May, wich at this point it's unknown. We still waiting to see what Floyd's big surprise is.
if he fights lopez he has no right to ***** about not getting mayweather again. not that i expect that to stop him, but still. i like lopez but come on..
You got to understand none of Floyd's potential opponents will be in a tough fight in 2014. Haymon has them all mismatching. As far as the mismatching goes Lopez is actually a good opponent for Khan.
Lopez is a terrible opponent for Khan, Im a huge Amir Khan fan and he used to be willing to fight anybody but after Molina then Diaz (I thought Collazo was an ok fight) he has to step it up again. It seems to me like he lost confidence in himself or maybe he sees everybody else making boat loads of money fighting lesser opposition so he wants to do it too, who knows, but all hes doing now is wasting time if you ask me, Nobody will be screaming for Khan/Lopez so why bother?
Im through watching these terrible matchups and as much as I like Khan if he doesn't fight somebody worthy ill skip his next one too, theres too many top tier fighters taking on lesser fighters instead of each other and fans let it slide as long as its their favorite fighter that's doing it and even try to defend it.
Pacquiao/Algieri is another bad fight people are trying to defend because its Pacquiao doing it but Just because Algieri beat Provodnikov at 140 doesn't put him in line for Pacquiao at 147 and anybody trying to say its an interesting fight is full of ****, its ****ing terrible.
Lopez still living off that ortiz win i see. Id like to see him win this but he wont. Not very good honestly. So sick of this Al Haymen crap. Im more of a Paul Heymen guy.
Got no problem with this fight since i don't think it will lead to a Floyd fight, honestly i don't think Floyd will ever fight Khan, plus depending how Khan fights, Lopez has a chance to hurt Khan bad.
its been over two years since Garcia KO's him. No more tune up fights. There are a lot of good fights at 147. Should be Guerrero or perhaps a Peterson rematch at 147.
I just can't see Khan beating Guerrero. Perhaps he should go for Alexander. I think that's winnable.

Sorry but no. Josesito is exciting and all but not a fight to set khan up for floyd. Khan should be fighting someone in top 5 or 10 at ww someone like thurman, porter,Guerrero, alexander, bradley, marquez or pac but those last 3 won't be made.

He needs to fight the winner of this coming saturdays fight.
Lopez has been getting battered (Canelo, Maidana etc) since beating Ortiz and I worry for his health. Amir isn't a power puncher hopefully Josesito has something left.
The winner of Brooks Porter is not going to fight Khan this year. If it's Brook theres no way in hell it could be this year. They will obviously build that for next year during spring or summer. And knowing Brooks he will definitely want at least one easy defense, if not a couple before fighting Khan.
Alexander already said he does not want to fight Khan. So thats gone.
This is a good fight for Khan. I imagine has given up on the Floyd fight, as he should. Floyd is too smart to fight Khan at this point. Floyd already said he's not looking to fight the young guns, and I think Khans mobility and speed is exactly the thing Floyd doesn't want to bother with.
In anycase, if Floyd is not going to fight him, why should Khan fight someone for him? Funny how when Maidana fought Lopez it was cool. Khan will probably give Lopez a beating.
