By Robbie Bannatyne – The strange and wacky wheel of the boxing world has taken another turn for the bizarre with the announcement that Amir Khan will face Chris Algieri on May 30th. When I awoke to the news I was confused and thought it must still be April Fools Days. Now it is clear that ‘King Khan’ is the only fool left in April.
I mean what the hell is Khan playing at? He could bank of millions of pounds by facing Kell Brook in the biggest British fight of the year, yet he elects to box Chris Algieri in a fight that will struggle to find a broadcaster!
Rob Blakeman : Amir “King?” Khan has stated on a Sky Sports Toe to Toe broadcast that he will not fight World Champion Kell Brook-even though having a World title would make him much more of a legitimate challenge to the winner of Mayweather v Pacquiao-the big money that Khan craves. He says Brook needs to fight some real contenders (So beating Shawn Porter in his own backyard doesn’t count!) and make his way to the top like Khan thinks he has. Khan has lost 3 times. He’s been knocked out twice and so clearly thinks the risk of being beaten by Brook is too big now he believes he is close to the fight he wants with ‘Money”. He says that Brook is trying to ‘cash-out’ on his (Khan’s) name as it would be his last fight-as if Khan is trying to do anything different with a Mayweather fight!
By Scott Gilfoid: Showtime has decided to pass on televising the May 30th fight between Amir Khan (30-3, 19 KOs) and former WBO light welterweight champion Chris Algieri (20-1, 8 KOs) in New York. Dan Rafael is reporting that Showtime chose not to televise the Khan-Algieri fight. 
Eddie Hearn, the promoter for IBF welterweight champion Kell Brook, says he’s hearing that former WBO light welterweight champion Chris Algieri (20-1, 8 KOs) is a name that is being mentioned for Amir Khan (30-3, 19 KOs) for his next fight.
