But they updated his record after the Algieri fight.

I remember reading an article a couple of months back where Oscar said he still had a contract with Amir. I wouldn't be surprised to see a legal battle arise out of this.

Here's an article about Khan:

Amir Khan Stands Firm That Golden Boy Pact is Over

Earlier this year, Golden Boy Promotions and manager/adviser Al Haymon reached an undisclosed agreement to go their separate ways. Haymon walked away with an army of his fighters. But, a very small number of Haymon's fighters remained contractually obligated to Golden Boy. However, there was a contractual clause in those remaining contracts which allow Haymon to fully purchase them. One fighter who many believed was still contractually obligated to Golden Boy was Amir Khan (30-3, 19KOs).

And De La Hoya:

De La Hoya Keeping Mum on Status of Khan/Golden Boy

In the separation agreement between Golden Boy Promotions and adviser/manager Al Haymon that was consummated at the beginning of the year, Amir Khan was among a select few fighters that was under contract with Haymon that would remain with Golden Boy. But you wonder just how tenable that situation is. Earlier this year, after his January 17th bout against Jesus Ruiz, Leo Santa Cruz, who also fell under this arrangement, soon had his promotional contract with Golden Boy bought out by Haymon. There was a clause in the separation agreement which allowed Haymon to activate a complete contract buyout.

Very ambiguous.

Khan has been with them for a long time. What I want to know is if Khan is ever going to fight a top world rated welterweight who can punch hard. He only seems to fight about once a year against an average fighter who can't break an egg. How does Khan think he deserves Mayweather or Pacquiao when he no longer fights any tough guys? The last dangerous fighter Khan fought was Garcia over 3 years ago. Time to step up the competition, King Khan.
