    Khan knows another loss leaves Him totally irrelevant to pac and floyd so he is going all out for that payday. You cant really blame the guy id be doing the same thing. $$$$

      But as Dirk said, it doesn't start before the 17th.

      June 13th, Wembley is already booked. Assuming he doesn't get May/Pac in May, I don't see the point in him fighting someone like Diego Chaves in May.

          Not totally irrelevant, he just wouldn't be in the mix for Pacquiao-Mayweather.

            On another note, Khan was turning his nose up at the Brook fight when he had a better shot at landing someone else, but now the pickings are slimming down "I'll fight Brook." Tsk Tsk. Brook should make him wait awhile. He needs to start pulling the trigger on fights while they're right in front of him.
            Brook had a mandatory for summer. That fight will always be there regardless of how much Brook pretends it doesn't matter. Even if Khan loses his next bout.

              No one. But honestly, who else is left?

              Guerrero/thurman/Garcia taken. Mayweather and Pacquiao are not happening, he's not fighting Maidana or Porter, just fought Devon - That leaves Bradley who'll probably fight Cotto or Marquez who is a good fight for Brook if Khan doesn't happen.

              Basically, he's running out of possible opponents.

                If Khan loses his next fight, the fight isn't there for at least another year and it won't be as big.

                  But according to Khan (and his fans) Manny and Floyd are the only fighters at 147 who are great enough to share a ring with King Khan?

                  That deadline thing....

                    Khan is a damn good boxer with skills to test the best but he talks like he deserves, on what he's actually achieved, equal say with the likes of Floyd Mayweather. Where would Floyd be in this conversation if HE had been annihilated in under a minute by a fringe guy, sent across the ring on his back by Danny Garcia prior to being rescued in the fourth and had to go tooth and nail to a photo finish with Lamont Peterson? Khan might get there in the end but right now he's just another guy in the queue. And he'll always have the same chin.

                      Another blow for the people who say Khan is scared or ducking Brook

                      If you think Khan fears Brook, u guys are delusional, this guy will fight anyone.

                      He just wanted to fight Floyd and Pac first, but he'll settle for Brook

                      If Brook is offered the fight in December, he better take it.
