So is he getting the Garcia fight or not? Has that idea been scrapped for the more interesting Garcia-Thurman fight? Once he gives the WBC "the green light" he will get a shot at Garcia. How does that even make sense? Either he's the mandatory and wants it or not. It's amazing that two fighters who have not beaten anyone significant at 147 (I'm not sure how I feel about the Porter win) get this much discussion, especially Khan's ass. Since Maidana, this cat hasn't beaten anyone of relevance (and that's going all the way back to 140)... Is it obvious that I don't like Khan? LOLComment

Good money for both guys,they should take it!!Comment

Khan v Brook at 157 would be a fun watch but I'd prefer Khan to fight Garcia and get the WBC belt.
It's pretty obvious the Garcia fight wont happen because Mayweather is getting ready to fight him.Comment

F U Khan . Your a piece of **** .Comment

Khan won't be fighting Brook anywhere above 147. He can make it easily, Brook can barely make it so Khan will cling on to that advantage as a deal breaker.Comment

Amir Khan, still a world champion but headed for hospital, mumbled through the bruises and cuts that dressed a face rearranged only moments before by Marcos Maidana: "I proved tonight I've got a chin."
What an understatement. The 4,632 fans scattered around an arena that holds twice that number in the bowels of the Mandalay Bay last night were brought to their feet in a frenzy in round 10 as the Argentinian challenger – who came to the fight with an 87% stoppage record – belted Khan from one side of the ring to the other.
He landed blows, unanswered, that would have destroyed any other fighter of comparable size in the world, including Khan's friend and stablemate, Manny Pacquiao. Yet, drawing on his phenomenal fitness, the boy from Bolton somehow remained upright to retain his WBA light-welterweight title.

April 27, 2013:
Amir Khan survived an early knockdown and a late onslaught to eke out an unconvincing points win over supposedly damaged goods in Julio Díaz, yet he was told within minutes of the decision that his next fight would be for a world title.
On his return to the UK after an absence of two years, the judges gave it to him 114-113, 115-113 and 115-112, but again Khan's lack of one-punch power allowed his opponent to force him into uncomfortable situations. He had the heart but not the hammer.
I had it a draw, but with the sixth and the 12th even, and two 10-8 rounds to the Mexican, so there was little in it either way. However, the loser will feel aggrieved on two counts: first, that he started too cautiously and second, that he did not receive full dividend for his domination of the second half of the contest.
