After his knockout loss to Canelo Alvarez on May 7 in Las Vegas, it remains unclear what is the next step for former WBA Light Welterweight and IBF light-welterweight champion Amir Khan (31-4-0). However, a series of contradicting tweets and interviews have made boxing fans unsure of what to expect from the former champion.
The Bolton born boxer took to twitter to express his eagerness to fight 3 times in 2017. This would be contrary to 2015 and 2016 when Khan only fought once a year.
Want to be back in the ring around January. Big fights next year. Who do you think? il be ready. #147lbs January May December #3Fights #2017
