By William Mackay: Former IBF/WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan (26-3, 18 KO’s) says he’ll be looking to get a quick rematch against his recent conqueror WBA/WBC light welterweight champion Danny Garcia (25-0, 16 KO’s) next year once Khan gets past his Golden Boy chosen opponent lightweight Carlos Molina (17-0, 7 KO’s) on December 15th at the Sports Arena, in Los Angeles, California, USA.

Khan told Radio Raheem at Maxboxing.com “I asked for the rematch [with Danny Garcia] but they didn’t want one. Hopefully Golden Boy can get me that rematch next year after the Molina fight.”

Khan went onto say that he felt he would have knocked Garcia out had he chosen to box him instead of slugging it out with him in their fight last July. Khan thinks the sole reason he was knocked out was because he got made at Garcia and his father Angel Garcia for some of the things that they had said about him during their press conferences.

It’s going to be interesting to see if Golden Boy will actually attempt to get the rematch for Khan with Danny Garcia because this seems a little out of their nature given some of the softer opposition they’ve put Khan in with during his time with them. It’s hard to believe that Golden Boy will risk having their golden goose Khan plucked clean by Garcia in a rematch. Khan really doesn’t match up well at all with the hard hitting Garcia, and I can’t imagine them letting Khan take that risk again.

Golden Boy will likely steer Khan away from Garcia permanently, as well as Lucas Matthysse and focus more on trying to put Khan in with lightweights or faded or weak punching light welterweights like Zab Judah. Khan already beat Judah once before but I can see him getting matched up with Judah again just so that Golden Boy can have Khan facing and beating a fighter with a name.
