    Khan: No Brook or Broner, will announce more 'creditable' opponent soon. Who?




    So it's not Broner or Brook apparently. Broner is going down to 140 in all likelihood - and Khan really needs a good good fight.

    However, who's really available?

    The Porter fight would have to be fought before mid April, so probably not going to happen.

    Could it be Guerrero, Alexander or possibly even Thurman?

    Who do you think his next opponent will be?

    Probably Guerrero or Alexander. It seems like Porter - Mallinaggi, Broner - Molina, Thurman - Somebody who would build his name up.

      It's Guerrero

      Sucks that Broner ducked Khan.

          Must have missed something.

          So Broner's officially off the table now I'm going to guess? Since when?

            Apparently Broner doesn't want to fight at Welterweight

              I don't think Showtime would allow two of their assets coming off losses or shaky fights to fight each other.

              It wouldn't really make much sense. And it wouldn't make any sense to make such a big fight on an undercard.

              Khan wrote on Twitter that he had contacted Broner's team but they said 'no thanks moving to 140' or something like that.

              I think Guerrero will probably be the choice. Maybe Alexander as an outsider.

              Would be great if he could get them to the UK, but I doubt it.

                The fight could be made on its own merit. I don't think Khan wants to fight on Mayweather's undercard anyway.

                  That's silly.

                  Shame if it doesn't happen because both the fight and build up would be great.

                    Don't think so either.

                    The fight would probably be PPV in the UK as well, if it was fought here. Or at least could be, if Khan wasn't tied to Boxnation for two more fights.
