Think the ring walk is scheduled for 4am! Might set an alarm myself rather than stay up

Recording, days of getting up or staying up are behind me. Looking forward to it though, no idea which way it will go. HopinG Amir will win as the possibility of the mayweather fight would be awesome. 👍

Yep, give me something to watch after Man Utd do Liverpool. Red:devil:s

Looks a good card for tonight.

Have to remember not to look at my Sky Sports updates in the morning on my phone. :greengrin

Good fight from khan, didnt really expect that from him, so controlled. Hopefully he gets a huge fight now as there isnt really that many out there that can trouble him now

Just watched it. Khan looks a much more composed and rounded fighter since switching to Virgil Hunter.

Next fight is tricky for him. Floyd has said he wants to fight Pacquaio on May 2nd but this has been heard a million times before from both sides so who knows. If it isn't Mayweather next for Khan then the obvious choice is a fight at Wembley or in Manchester against Kell Brook but he doesn't seem to fancy that at all.

I cant remember Khan fighting this well before, he really was in control from the first bell to the last. Very impressive from the Lancashire lad. :greengrin :top marks

If you were him would you fight kell brook? Brook IMO isnt in the same class as these guys and would get a hiding from khan, especially based on this fight

It's a big money fight that he'd likely win for a world title.

Looking at the rankings around 140 or 147lbs I don't see a lot for him. Pacquaio or Mayweather but everyone wants to fight them. He won't go near a ring with Garcia or Maidana again. Tim Bradley? Juan Manuel Marquez? A banger like Guerrero? Shawn Porter? I'm not sure any of them are bigger fights than an all British fight with Brook.

He's not a huge draw. He took less than 300 fans to Vegas last night and early PPV figures are poor. Ultimately that's what will decide who fights Mayweather or Pacquiao next.
