By Marcus Richardson: Amir Khan’s comeback opponent for his April 21st fight will be announced this Tuesday in a press conference in Liverpool, UK. This will be Khan’s first fight in 2 years since his knockout loss to Saul Canelo Alvarez in May 2016. Khan (31-4, 19 KOs) probably could have comeback in 2017, but he chose to take it easy last year and do nothing.
By Tim Royner: Junior middleweight Phil Lo Greco (28-3, 15 KOs) says he’s been offered the Amir Khan (31-4, 19 KOs) fight for April 21, but they want him to boil down to 147 for him to get it. Lo Greco, 33, says he doesn’t like the idea of him having to go all the way down to 147 to fight Khan, as it’ll be difficult for him to make the weight, and it’ll give a wrong impression of the British fighter.
