Woah. Slow down folks. Warren wants this to be an eliminator because he assumes Marquez will be moving up to fight the winner of Pacquiao-Hatton or will simply vacate the belt because a fight with Khan would do little for his resume. There is not a chance that Warren would put Khan in with Marquez. He wants Khan to win a vacated title, defend it against nobodies for a while and then maybe up the quality level once he thinks it's safe, if ever.Comment

You mean Warren wants to pull a Calzaghe?Woah. Slow down folks.

Yes, although I wouldn't call it pulling a Calzaghe, because Warren tries to do it with all his fighters. The irritating thing is that in both Calzaghe and Khan, he had/has highly ambitious fighters who he will waste. If I were a young, talented fighter in Britain and Warren wanted to sign me, I'd only sign a contract for the first developmental part of my career because to be fair, he can provide the money and decent progression in the early stages. I'd be out of there once I was at World level though.
Notice how three of Warren's biggest ever fighters (Calzaghe, Hatton and Hamed) all left him at one point. Eventually Khan will realise that he'll have to leave Warren to further his career, if it's even possible with a chin like he has.Comment
