i got the perfect plan..

khan vs barrera for vacant wbo title!!

peterson vs funeka for the vacant ibf title!!

winners face each other for undisputed lightweight champ!

the winner then fights the wiiner of marquez an diaz to become..ring champion, wbo champion and ibf champion of the world!

Sounds beautiful! you are one hell of a matchmaker! But...

Assuming JMM beats Diaz he would never fight Funeka.

I dont think frank warren will let khan fight funeka... it will be like facing breidis prescott 2.0

im not so sure.. i think warren has let him off the leash, the biggest shock was letting him fight barrera..him fighting funeka wouldnt be as big a thing.

all the other lightweights are shaking in their boots... funeka will probably have to settle for grabbing the ibf belt

khan fighting mab is not shocking... mab is past his prime

lol i know.. but surely jmm once a champ will have to defend his belts.. i cant see him trying to move up to light welter as hes simply not big enough. paqman wont fight him so other then the daiz whol he have already fought and casamayor and campbell gone up the big names are running out..

yes he is past his prime but that doesnt mean hes still not good enough to wipe the floor with most of the light weights out there let alone khan.. people are judging him not being prime on 2 fights!! i.e- paqman and jmm and if im not mistaken that is the 2 best pound for pounders on the planet.. even then i dont think jmm beat him.

Rematch should be first priority, and if Nate has any balls the way he talks like he does, he'll grant him that rematch.
