Khan vs. Garcia
Khan: All my opponents must agree to drug testing or I won’t fight them
Angel Garcia: Khan is overrated, he’s a nobody
By William Mackay: Angel Garcia, the father of WBC light welterweight champion Danny Garcia (23-0, 14 KO’s), doesn’t see former IBF/WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan (26-2, 18 KO’s) being a problem at all for his son Danny. Khan and the 24-year-old Garcia will be fighting on July 14th at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Khan motivated by Froch’s win over Bute
By William Mackay: Former IBF/WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan was in attendance to witness Carl Froch’s win over IBF super middleweight champion Lucian Bute last Saturday night in Nottingham. The victory really helped to motivate the 25-year-old Khan for his July 14th clash against WBC light welterweight champion Danny Garcia at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Garcia can wear Khan down with pressure just like Peterson did
By William Mackay: Amir Khan (26-2, 18 KO’s) may be sorry that he chose to fight WBC light welterweight champion Danny Garcia (23-0, 14 KO’s) on July 14th instead of a different type of fighter because Khan is in a way going back in a time machine to face a similar fighter to the one that beat him last December in Khan’s loss to Lamont Peterson.
Khan: I want to move up to 147 and face the big names – Ortiz, Mayweather, Pacquiao
Khan: I’ll shut the mouths of the fans who doubted me
By William Mackay: Amir Khan is fighting for a title in his next bout against WBC light welterweight champion Danny Garcia on July 14th at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. Khan will possibly have his lost IBF and WBA 140 pound titles either given to him or up for grabs for the fight if the two sanctioning bodies strip Lamont Peterson of them like khan is hoping they will.
