    He has till July 3rd to make a decision about who he is fighting when it comes to the WBO. The WBO has declared Mayweather their Champion. He will be stripped if he doesn't decide what he will do by July 3rd.

    I think he announces on July 2nd that his opponent will be Kell Brook and all titles will be on the line.

          Sadly, I still think Khan probably gets the fight.

            He hasn't vacated any titles and it's been almost 2 months since the fight. Plus he said he still wants the WBO belt (which has yet to be sent to him.) The only belts he has to vacate are his 154 WBC/WBA belts.

              So what is the excuse for dodging a title shot against Brook?

                That sounds like Floyd's most appealing option if he fights in September.

                  I don't think Khan will get the fight. For the Simple reason that he is a f*g, according to Floyd Sr.

                    He will fight for the IBF to be undisputed...and he has not vacated anything and is fighting to keep the WBO that it a tell tell sign

                      What the B.S part is is the WBO plan on stripping Floyd, so it doesn't seem he has a chance to hold all four at once.... ****** B.S politics
