Khan is ready to get back into the ring, only six weeks after his devastating loss to Terence Crawford, Amir Khan announced his next fight! Khan has one of the best gifts in boxing, however it doesn’t always help him when he’s in the ring. He has some of the fastest punches in the Welterweight division. Terence Crawford managed to escape his clutches and win the fight, after a controversial decision. The fight has been announced and Khan will be fighting against a man by the name of Neeraj Goyat!
This fight will be taking place on the 12th July at the King Abdullah Sports City in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Neeraj Goyat has been boxing since 2011 and hasn’t made much of an impact to the boxing world like he would have wanted. He’s been in 16 fights and lost 3 of them and drew 2, meaning he has won 11! He now has a chance that could bring him to the top of the Welterweight division… only if he manages to beat former junior welterweight champion Amir “king” Khan! He could have a chance to fighting some of the best in the business-like Crawford if he manages to pull off a victory against Khan on the 12th July 2019!
Amir Khan will hope for an easy win against Goyat, but it may not be as easy as he might want it to be, Goyat has been in 16 fights, all but two have been won or loss via points, meaning Goyat will be use to going the distance with any fighter and will be able to do the same against Khan in the later rounds, however Khan only has one weakness… his chin. No matter the power of the punch, if Khan gets hit there… he goes down to the floor. So, Goyat could get his third KO victory over Khan, if that’s what he wants to do! Even though this could just be an exhibition, this could be a great opportunity for Goyat to show the world what he can do.
