after rumours he'd be fighting jono thaxton or romanov in his next fight, khans opponent has been revealed as Kristjansen. The Dane is ranked Number 2 by the WBO, and the fight will be for the vacant wbo intercontinental trinket.
also, i believe warren is trying to get the wbo to sanction this as an official eliminator (as khan is already ranker number 4, and number 1 katsidis is already fighting diaz next year).
kristjansen has a record of 19 wins, 1 loss and 3 draws (eh?) with 5 of his wins coming by way of brutal knockout
)
looks to me like warrens plans to manouver khan to a future vacant wbo title shot are progressing nicely.
well disappointed he isn't fighting thaxton or romanov though...
