    I don't know how Khan deserves a shot at a belt, but I'd favor him over Alexander..

      I'm actually not mad at amir. He wants these belts and he has the backing to run his damn mouth and have people pay attention. There are other boxers who could talk their way into fights, but they are largely quiet and usually go stretches without fighting. Whether I believehe'll win is another question but I like the gumption

        It's probably the best possible title fight for AK to take. Style wise I think it matches up nicely.

          If they fight I got Devon by late stoppage, Khan just seems like he's getting weaker and weaker. I would love to see Khan and Judah again because I'm pretty sure Judah knows now after watching Diaz and Danny Khan's weaknesses and he has the speed and power to take him out, it would be the sweetest revenge ever.

            It is a voluntary defence by Alexander so money talks.
            They should put Khan with Ruslan Provodnikov or Randall Bayley then if he wins he deserves a title shot.

              After the Diaz, it's obvious anyone with some kind of power can hurt and stagger Khan. Devon is not a big puncher, but it doesn't matter; Khan's chin is that bad.

              He should go after Paulie again if he wins, probably the only guy in 147 that can't hurt him.

                Khan has not gotten weaker, the opposition is just better. He's not all that he's been built up to be. I don't like Devon much but I do see him sparking Khan. His chin couldn't hold up at 40, it's going to be worse at 47.

                  Well Khan clearly understands styles make fights...

                  Destroyed Judah by going left using the jab avoiding the left uppercut and left hand..

                  He'd do the same with Alexander.

                  But Alexander does have more height and reach..

                  boring 12 round fight. Atleast Alexander won't be given much of an opportunity to hug.

                    Alexander by KO. With a left hook from his southpaw stance.

                      Khan has done nothing at welterweight to go ahead of all other legitimate contenders - come on Devon tell Khan to fight Kell BROOK and the winner then gets a shot - Khan can fight Brook in Sheffield in late Oct/November that is a big money spinner and then Alexander in January 2014, we will see if Khan is then the best Welter weight in UK but I see Brook winning by KO between 5- 8 rounds. Brook should be over his injury by then and Ramadan is done by end of August so I think Khan needs to prove at welterweight and Brook needs a warm up fight before fighting Alexander because his been inactive due to cancellations and injuries - please folks share your thoughts on this.
