    He won't, now there's no Floyd fight; Khan doesn't have to carefully pick opponents and can do what he's done most of his career and fight the best. Rumours are he's leaving Haymon.

      Khan vs anyone who can punch please. I want to see Amir have to perform at his best, he's awful to watch against featherfisted guys
      He's actually at his best against feather-fisted, stand-off boxers like Alexander. Algieri had success by walking him down.

      Maybe Cesar Rene Cuenca?

      Khan still believes he can fight Mayweather for his 50th fight. He'll probably believe the fight can still happen until Mayweather dies.

            Only the Alexander fight was under Haymon and since he got wrecked by Garcia. Plus he was absolutely tailor made for Khan.

              Hahahahahahahahaa Brookturds don't acknowledge that fight as a comparison which was scored 8-4 but Khan wins 12-0 and it doesn't count. lmfao

              Khan's last 3 fights have been better than Thurman and Brook, only Floyd and Maidana have had a better run of late/

                Khan's last 2 fights have come against former world titlists, one of whom is a top 10 welterweight...how is he protected? The fact that Khan has fought the best guys in and around his division(s) tells me that one of these fights: Brook, Porter, Thurman or Garcia II will happen at some stage in the next few months.

                In fact, Khan v Brook is essentially set up for next summer in the UK, so we'll probably get a half decent opponent in between then and now.

                  There's always Leonard Bundu or Chris Van Heerden.
                  I think a draw was as close as you could see it I had Khan up quite easily, the only thing that surprised me was Algieri's performance.

                  I'd rather see Khan in against Brook, Thurman, Porter, Bradley etc.

                    For another 6 months.

                    Khan will fight somebody the public doesn't care about in december.

                    it won't be thurman
                    It won't be danny
                    It won't be brook
                    He may fight porter, but Brook already beat him so why fight porter instead of brook.

                    2016 is the year khan gets his reality check once and for all.

                      How the hell is fighting the 9th ranked welterweight fighting the best in his division ?

                      alexander was 2 fights removed from losing his title at 147.

                      Algieri never even fought at 147 prior too the khan fight.
                      and he got dropped 6 times in his prior fight at 144.

                      those wins are impressive too you?

                      meanwhile brook and thurman are undefeated fighters at his weight and he isn't fighting them any time soon.
