He's mentioned the European champion , him that beat Thaxton , the Frenchman . I just read they wanted Nate Campbell but can't go for him now because he failed to make the weight and lost his belts . I think he'd have got beat off Campbell anyway . He wants a world title shot by the end of the year at the Reebok stadium in Bolton . Probably a European title fight or a top 10 lightweight .
If (or should I say when) Khan rematches Prescott and wins via KO or UD (if he does)
Then this would be a big boost, he is only 22 years old.. facing someone like a world champion would be pretty dangerous at this stage since a loss would just knock him back to stage 1 again.
yeah! but that was the only punch the old washed out timer landed.
theres two ways that khan career will go now, either:
A) WARREN still believes that khan has the potential to be a multi weight divisional champ, a legend or the UK in the boxing realm. if this is the case then we can expect warren to secure fights against opposition that are good, game but limited and beatable for the youngster.
B) warren realizes that khan for all his attributes is just too damn chinny and decides the hell with it - decides to make the biggest match-ups he can. dont discount this as a possibility remeber warren has the 3 olympians in his ranks now, and he may see them as being the next big thing. he may think to himself i might as well make some sort of money out of khan now and make the big fights with big names before khan loses all credibility by getting KTFO by a nobody.
i personally think khan will be spoon fed the same sort of fighter he was pre-prescott, i.e. slightly blown up, light hitting, good chinned and capablely skilled - step forward anthony mezzache.
the guy is the euro title holder and has a weak KO percentage so it makes him the perfect candidate.
