Based off Khan's Twitter activity, he is in Dubai today. With 7 weeks or so left till the fight, I don't see it being Khan unless he does a 6 week camp or something!
It's the only other belt in the divison and puts him in line for the Mayweather-Pacquaio winner
Oh and it would make him a 2 weight champion.
Oh and it's the biggest pay day of his career.
No thanks, Algeri please for way less money and no belt and huge backlash. Sounds logical.
As a (fading) Khan fan I am stumped at the choice but is there the possibility of Haymon playing a part here? Khan is with him isn't he?
What is Arum's problem with having the Khan fight in May or June? It's not like Khan is an undefeated great fighter or anything, even though it's more interesting than a Jeff Horn fight.
Ramadan (the Muslim month of Fasting) starts around 25th May and ends towards the end of June so Khan wouldn't be fighting then.
