Potential Rematch on the Horizon
KSI may revisit negotiations with British boxing icon Amir Khan after a proposed fight fell through. Khan, who retired in 2022 at the age of 38 after a loss to Kell Brook, had engaged in discussions with KSI in the past.
Previous Talks and Obstacles
Amir Khan faced a setback with a two-year ban for testing positive for ostarine, a substance linked to muscle mass and stamina enhancement. However, an independent tribunal accepted Khan's explanation that he unknowingly took the substance, clearing him of intentional misconduct.
Manager's Insights and Future Prospects
KSI's manager, Mams Taylor, expressed optimism about the potential match, citing positive interactions with Khan despite challenges during previous negotiations. The public's interest in the fight is high, and both parties are eager to reach an agreement in the future.
Upcoming Opponents and Current Status
Following a defeat to Tommy Fury in 2023, KSI has been eyeing a return to the ring. Plans to face Anthony Taylor and Slim Albaher in a unique two-on-one bout were derailed by a hand injury. Talks are now underway for a potential showdown with former sparring partner and 9-2 boxer Harley Benn, son of Nigel Benn and brother of Conor Benn.
