sorry if there is another thread covering this but it seams that the previouse opponent has pulled out though there is nothing in the press about it, so just wondering if anyone knows what the fight is going to be?

One assumes its not Thaxton but I wonder how hard the fight would be to make.

Its in the news of the world saying his opponents pulled out.

The Dane has a serious case of the pundelfarts.

Yes, I think that is Danish Speak for Carlos Wiganitis.

PFs are the worst - Hitman Hatton1 has them all the time!

Friday. Before anyone else. Great spot from Boxrec's Wales.

Give us a visit, josh, as we often have bits the others don't.

Apparently he'll be fighting a former world champion - anyone know who it is?

These days that narrows it down to a group of about 800.

Lol. There are quite a few to choose from that is for sure.

Stevie Johnston, former world champ, decent record, light puncher and shot to pieces, anyone else reckon it could be him?

I was thinking Manuel Medina?

Could be "interesting" to see who they can get at under three weeks notice.

I'm sure someone decent enough will take the fight, but it is almost certainly going to be someone whom Khan should cruise past.

Scott Harrison???

we all know he could get Thaxton if he wanted but he doesn't seem to want to do so

Robbie Pedan? ,

He will be smaller than Khan, but St Clair is a good boxer with ambition still, and has a very good chin. This is no walk in the park for Khan

He is down to box on the 1st Feb else where

Decent opponent. He's mixed in top company, never been stopped and held a major belt. He's a super-feather, but has fought at 135. Good test for Khan. Definitely a step in the right direction.

In Australia! Won't he be extremely jet lagged, or is something funny going on?

Another fighter from a lower weight division got good credentials wasnt he due to fight Featherweight Scott Harrison a couple of years ago ????

Should be a good one, yeah- Looking at his record, he lost his title, then lost a follow up and has won a 6 rounder sinse. A real opportunity, if he can take it.

I can see Khan winning this, by a wide enough margin, on points.

now that is the kind of fight that would be a resonable title eliminator in my oppinion. No complaints good fight IMHO and probably got him at the right point in his carrer.

I assume the fight on the 1st will be cancled but it does mean the fellow is in training already

I wouldn't say a 32 year old super featherweight moving up in weight, who has lost 2 of his last 3 is worthy of a world title eliminator.

Good choice from Warren though on short notice, he ticks all the right boxes. Big name, past his peak, not a big puncher, loses every time he faces someone decent. Should stretch Khan and maybe take it the distance.

I'd think so.

Although the quality of his opponent for that fight was very very limited, it was hardly going to be a competative/meaningful fight.

In the context of the other fight which was to have been a world title eliminator I'd say this fight was more worthy yes, I don't think its ideal but for the WBO borbal then it's better than the previouse fight.
