What next for Khan? Where does he go from here?

[HitmanHattonAY]

how about a fight with Kell Brook in the UK. This fight makes sense !

None of Garcia's punches were on the chin - any head shots and his legs turned to jelly -not for the first time either-with absolutely no coordination. This could be the beginning of brain damage. Carl Froch is right, Khan should retire and his dad should be telling him that! All the other hangers-on, of course, will say box like you did in the first 2 rounds and you're a world beater! You've made plenty of money Amir, retire and get the benefit of it.

AK can stay with B graders. He is now in the gate-keeper class.

I watched the dec. lose to Peterson and I thought he lost because he simply didn't do enough! This fight he couldn't recover from a looping punch that caught his jaw point and his skull behind the ear. He was hurt and lost equilibrium and couldn't recover in time to move on. He tried hard in both bouts but he's lost as he's moved up in competition against young men who come to fight and win. Its not the end of the world to loose to ranked fighters but the stoppage is concerning. I would have him go for a complete physical exam to evaluate his concussive situations and would want a completely positive nod to move ahead in the sport.
I was jesting that he could box Paulie Mags. because neither of them could punch hard and their boxers that do try to win. Might be entertaining. If I were his manager and got the ok to continue I'd go on a very thorough investigation for proper opponents and look to show case his talents without stepping on egos and getting this kid Ko'ed! Losses are not the end it all for a fighter but it is important to evaluate how you lost and the effects it has on a fighter physically & mentally. Ray.

Its difficult to see whats coming next for him. One thing Khan has got is heart.. im sure given the chance he would get straight back in the ring with Garcia, but thats not a good idea just yet. Another heavy KO would be terrible for him.

Maybe a change of trainer isn't such a crazy idea. Roach has done some great things with Khan since the Prescott fight. He's got some good tools in his locker and if he could get in a trainer who could help him defensively that that would do him the world of good. He needs to take in some ring savvy aswell, in regards to clinching when hurt and fighting inside.
From his own side of things, i think he needs to focus abit more. You get the sense he has started to look past opponents that he doesn't think he needs to worry about. Another worry is he seems to always want to look exciting in the ring as opposed to just concentrating on the game plan and getting the win.

Reading this back its does seem im being alittle picky, as i do think Khan is good enough to come back strong and i believe he will.
Needs to take things a little slower though at the minute and maybe have a few fights back in England.
Its hard to pick a possible opponent for his next few fights, as he is a good fighter..so there is opponents he will dominate and blow away fairly easily, but step up to far and there is a chance of another heavy defeat.

Kell Brook would be a huge fight in the UK and one that will be talked up now. Imagine if Khan took tha fight and lost though..would be a massive blow to his career reputation-wise.

Khan has beat some good fighters to be fair in Maidana, Malignaggi, Judah but he's lost to b class fighters in Presscot, Peterson and Garcia. If he wants to become the p4p best fighter he might as well retire

Change of trainer spot on- his guard and pocket work need serious attention, we all know he can box and run to a smooth victory but as he showed in the sparring vids he said Ļits boringĻ
I know fighters are fighters but if he had genuine 1 punch ko power at LWW then it wouldnt be so bad- but he doesnt and combine with that not the best chin, poor defence and the inability to stick to what hes good at (sticking and moving using the jab) and executing your trainers gameplan! = a long way to comeback
- i can see a possible fight at WW with paulie being made or maybe he will fight some of the older guys in the LWW division? its hard to see the following- who can he fight that is credible not too dangerous or punishing but still keep him in the mix/limelight?
the suggestion of him fighting Brook is too big a risk for both - Brook had the hardest night of his life last time out and khan got blown away neither can afford to lose there next fights and/or perform badly.....
he will probably just end up fighting the likes of- Corley, Soto, Campbell, Holt as a comeback ;;;;but then again maybe he could fight alexander? i honestly dont know its gonna take some doing the guy needs to concentrate on his flaws and arrogance -in turn his boxing will improve and so will his fan base.

Kell brook big risk Richard Schaefer said thyre myt be a fight with ortize and khan will get smashed maybe Devon Alexander but its really hard to say now and there's no point fighting Prescott lastly a rematch with Garcia it was funny at post fight conference he's like khan gve me an so I'd give him one then his dad butted in and was lyk there's no point and it's true Garcia has nothing to prove as he stopped khan in outstanding fashion

[Pad83]

As long as he stays away from anyone with a punch he's OK....
