Khan says this at the same time as he declares he's going up to 147 and looking for a fight with Alexander . . . . if he wants Matthysse just stay at 140 and fight him after Garcia.
Didn't Khan just say that he feels too weak at 140 and 147 suits him better? So it's probably just talk or he forgot that he would be fighting Lucas while feeling weak. Either way, it's a joke!
This man has taken too many punches and has lost touch with reality. He should be careful because Golden Boy seems to have soured on Khan and I imagine they will have no problems setting up a sacrificial lamb for Matthysse to devour. Khan should just keep pretending his hand speed is otherworldly and stay on course for Mayweather so he can cash out of boxing. Don't get me wrong Mayweather will embarrass Khan pretty badly, but Matthysse will end Khans career before a career payday. Amir Khans next few fights should be in the UK as to not risk a decision loss to lesser known opponents, but after the Julio Diaz fight, even facing washed up fighters can be a problem for Khan. Bottom Line: If you want to keep in the Mayweather hunt stay away from Matthysse or anyone with a punch.
Atleast he is willing to step up to anyone......he proved it against Maidana, and is willing to prove it against Lucas. Props
Maidana had to take legal action to force his mandatory rights. Khan was given the choice of fighting Maidana or giving up his titles and this was after a long convoluted deal where Maidana waived his mandatory rights for a year or 3 fights which ever took longer and should he lose one of those fights the Khan fight would be off. When you take this into account Khan's willingness to fight Maidana has to be brought into question along with the willingness to step up to anyone. Even Peterson had to take legal action to get his fight with Khan taking legal action to go to purse bids.

this isn't confidence from Khan, its delusion... Khan's defense is not good enough to stay away from those bombs for 12 rounds .. hell, Diaz was landing on him... Khan doesn't live in reality
Khan so full of sh.it, his KO losses were just as bad if not worst than what happened to PEDerson
