How Close Are We To Mayweather Vs Khan?


For months now we’ve all been debating on whom Floyd Mayweather’s next opponent will be. There have been many big names that have been linked with the undisputed pound for pound number one fighter including Devon Alexander, Gennady Golovkin, Danny Garcia, Amir Khan and Marcos Maidana. However within the last fortnight Mayweather narrowed down his next opponent to just two in the form two former foes of Amir Khan and Marcos Maidana. Then Mayweather took another step in choosing his next opponent by getting his twitter fans to decide whom he should fight in a poll. In the end it was Khan who finished first with a reported 60% of the final vote.  So with Khan winning the vote it seems that he will be Mayweather’s next opponent and with a rumoured May date in Las Vegas for the fight we haven’t got that long to wait. All that’s surely left to do is finalise the paperwork, but as we all know anything can happen in boxing so I wouldn’t book your tickets to Vegas just yet.
