Schaefer wants Khan to fight Juan Manuel Marquez – News

[Chuggerboom1]

Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer wants World Boxing Association light welterweight champion Amir Khan to fight 36-year-old Juan Manuel Marquez . In an article by Ron Lewis at Timesonline.co.uk, Schaefer says “We could do a split bill for television with Amir fighting in the UK and then go across to Marquez-Juan Diaz at Mandalay Bay. That would be some double header. I would then like to see the winner of Marquez-Diaz fight face Amir. He has the style Americans love and he can be a big star in the U.S.” Schaefer wants to match the 23-year-old Khan against WBO lightweight interim champion Michael Katsidis on the same night that Marquez fights Diaz. This, in effect, would force Marquez’s hand in having to fight Khan if Amir fights for Katsidis’ WBO interim title and doesn’t force the Australian to come up in weight to fight him.

Thoughts anyone?

Sounds good to me... if it's vs Prescott/Kastidas i would think about buying it.. it's a joke ppv without..

But erm no **** Marquez or Diaz vs Khan... Khan would eat them both up to fast, to big

I like it,Marquez has the power to take khan out imo.
Make it happen.

[Carpe Diem]

It would be a very good technical fight, i would pay to see it..

[wazaa.]

Amir has a very good chance in beating JMM.

It's a mismatch Marquez is a small 135 pounder. Marquez vs Katsidis much happen a fight that is clearly 50/50 for both fighters. Fight 140 pounders! Leave small 135 pounders the hell alone!

[Hi-Dro]

khan needs to fight maidana and the top 140 fighters and stop ****ing around

[War Dinamita]

Khan, JMM, and Casamayor on the same PPV?

Before the *****s start rushing in remember one important fact:

MAIDANA IS INJURED
