Former world champion Amir Khan could be facing WBO Welterweight champion Terence Crawford on March 23rd as part of an HBO Pay-Per-View card in New York’s Madison Square Garden, according to Dan Rafael of espn.com
“There have been discussions with Team Khan as well as an offer made and hopefully the fight can be put together,” Top Rank vice president Carl Moretti told ESPN on Monday.
“We made a proposal to Amir Khan and we will wait to hear back,” Arum said. “I would love to do the fight.”
“Fighting for a pound-for-pound title would be amazing,” Khan told the Daily Mail. “To win it would be even better, so I think I’m in a position where I can get that fight with the pound-for-pound champion at the moment. The Brook fight is always going to be there. It’s for no title, whereas I’m getting offered a world title and the pound-for-pound title. So why not?”
