Devon Alexander or Erik Morales possibilities for Amir Khan on July 7th

By William Mackay: Amir Khan's promoter Richard Schaefer reportedly is having situations assembling a battle among Khan and WBC light welterweight champion Danny Garcia for July 7th at the Honda Focus in Anaheim, California. Thusly, Schaefer is now turning his careful consideration regarding 35-year-old Erik Spirits and Devon Alexander (23-1, 13 KO’s) for Khan to face.

Admitting that the Spirits could be the much preferred alternative for Khan, for the reason that Spirits is abate and really played out, its an extended shot on account of Spirits is almost always eyed by Juan Manuel Marquez for a huge coin battle on July 14th at the Ranchers Stadium in Arlington, Texas. It's determined to be following to inconceivable to get Spirits to fail that battle, which will have the WBO light welterweight between time title on the line, to face the title-less Khan and serve as a walking stone for him.

Khan will imaginable need to settle for Alexander, and there's a true blue threat there for Khan resulting from the fact that Alexander looks a part stronger now that he's climbed to 147 and is no longer needing to take off weight so as to make 140 for light welterweight. Alexander newly effectively beat Marcos Maidana by a disproportionate 10 adjust unanimous determination final February.

Khan is falling off a misfortune to Lamont Peterson from final December, and he was supposed to be battling a rematch in opposition to Peterson but the battle went into disrepair when Peterson's positive sedate test for synthetic testosterone. It is extremely unlikely they can battle now, which is why Schaefer has been attempting to set up a battle in opposition to Garcia. In any case, Garcia has a compulsory resistance unpaid for his WBC required challenger Ajose Olusequn, and that appears such as a less demanding choice than needing to bargain with Khan running around the ring lasting throughout the night.

I can’t see Khan encountering Alexander since he's looking great at this time and could put forth maybe too solid a test for Khan. Golden Kid Advertisements would like to match Khan up in opposition to Floyd Mayweather Jr. following year, and if they put Khan in with Alexander, they would be able to see that battle vanish with a misfortune for Khan.
