Amir Khan Eager To Return: I'm Going To Fight in March...

[Ruthless-RKO]

He's already at 147 fighting weight right now.

I see an easier route would be 154. But I just don't see it.

I do think it will be on a W@rren card.

[keirw]

He will most likely have his comeback in the states, at welterweight.

[Oiky]

Be at welter I reckon....

God knows who against

[wesshaw1985]

I cant see a route for him at Welter which is why I can see him coming back at Light-Middle around the same time as Brook to keep the chatter going.
Thurman and Spence are lining each other up and Horn has Crawford.
Maybe Horn can avoid Crawford, Khan could face Skeete and then jump in with Horn.
Depends if Uncle Fr@nk can pull a few strings with his old pals over at the WBO...

Khan staying at welter would still keep the Brook chatter alive.

Brook would force himself to make welter again for a Khan fight.

In fact, that would probably be a smart move from Khan, as a weight drained Brook would be easier to beat.

“I walked out of the jungle at 145 lbs so I want to get back up to like 160 before I get back down to 147 lbs before I come back down to fight. 147 lbs is the division I’m in. Walking out of the jungle kind of surprised me at 145 lbs, walking around at the weight. So I want to put more weight on because my training is so intense you lose weight anyway.”

He continued that his trainer and manager are still the same:

“I was on the phone to Al (Haymon). We have talks of doing a big fight next year. But again, a tune up first. Yeah Virgil (Hunter) is still my trainer so I’m going to be flying out there in the next week or two.”

We've heard it all before

[sweetscience]

i think he is done, has some kind of injury that hasn't been made public

* so straight into a big fight.. biggest payday possible.... lambs to slaughter

[stujones]

He was hinting at injuries when he was a pundit for the super series.

[sweetscience]

Freddie roach said years ago there was something up with him

think he said eye (maybe hand)

Exactly this.

Whenever Khan talks about a comeback you should just ignore him until anything is officially announced.

He was saying December last summer, he is saying March now.

He will be saying he will fight in the summer in a few weeks.

Oh and no way he will fight at Light Middle. He will stay at Welterweight to use as an excuse for why the Brook fight won't happen.

[tennessee]

How bout a shot at bjs title.

[Stuarty]

Khan can feck off til he has something concrete! He's getting as bad as Haye with the attention seeking!

Was thinking this myself , and after the jungle shite he actually seems like a decent lad .

Scared shitless of anything that creeped or crawled tho !

[northern]

It'll be at welterweight, as his last fight against Alvarez proved, he's just too small a boxer to compete at super-welter/light-middle weight. and I've honestly never rated him at welterweight either to tell the truth.

who he fight's I wouldn't even hazard a guess, as it's even more staggering if he actually manages to arrange a fight. I've seen people talking up a match with Bradley Skeete on one of Warren's shows and honestly I think that would be the best fight available to him now but more then likely Skeete will get someone who's been active.

Honestly though, he'll chase someone well above his standing due to his... lets call it showmanship (Arrogant and/or egotistical is more accurate but let's be nice) so he'll probably never get a fight made or be cannon fodder to a big name like Thurman or Errol Spence jr. who want a warm up defence before they go after bigger names.

His glass chin can't handle 154. Some of the divisions punchers like Hurd would make short work of Khan.

Apparently he was 10.5 stone coming out of the jungle so he can't be far off that weight now. All roads lead to Welterweight.

Maybe he'll get that fight with Pacquiao after all.

Re-read that and draw your own conclusions.

Muzzles getting offended by a tree and declaring Jihad on Khan I didn't think they were so easily offended either Morons!

[Tom Moore]

March what year?

[KiwiRider]

He is at that age where 2 years can be 5 to a boxer. Speed got him to where he was, without that he is a skilled boxer with a weak chin. Or without the fast hands, a KO waiting to happen, more likely.
I'd like to see him fight again, he has the contacts to make it happen. But any reduction in his speed means it's over IMO.

F*ck my life, who evens reads the sun... what a hateful, sh1t-stirring rag. How the elite pump out hate to the ill-informed to divide and conquer. I die a bit each time when people lap up the bile within that scummy paper.
