    Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Hopes April 20th Return Lands in The UK

    Amir Khan wants to fight back in United Kingdom for the first time in two years. The 26-year-old has fought his last five opponents in America since beating Paul McCloskey in Manchester, back in April 2011.

    Khan is getting married in the summer so wants to be back in action in the spring, probably on April 20.

    If it's in the UK the best we're going to get is Senchenko.

    He should fight in the U.S and fight Lopez.

      Smart move Khan. No top contender will be willing to go over to England, maybe Josesito Lopez would, and Khan obviously cant hold up against the top contenders here. He can make more money fighting scrubs in England. Khan doesnt have the type of fanbase like Hatton that will bring 11,000 to the states. Khan showed a lot of heart coming over here fighting in other fighters home towns but in the long run that wasnt very smart.

        I think Lopez would go to the UK - but wouldn't be the smartest move by both IMO. I hope they have someone other than Senchenkho - a Prescott rematch would get everyone excited - but then again if they want to fight Garcia this year they Need good warm up fights.

            I think it's fair enough, Khan hasn't fought at home in 2 years.

            All the robbery comments, is just the usual anti-khan nonsense

            Lately hes fought Judah, petersen, molina and paulie all in their hometowns, and Maidana and Garcia on neutral ground.

            Also Khan has never benefitted from a robbery in his entire career, in fact arguably getting shafted by a roided lamont petersen in his hometown.

            It's not like he's Devon Alexander or some ****, so pipe down, haters.

                  I would really like to see Khan/Ortiz. Hope that one gets made.

                    He can't "make" him do anything.

                    He can offer him a payday for a fight at 140, the bloke can always say no.

                    I imagine it'll be at 147 though.
