Khan in Negotiations for Epic Showdown on Cross-Genre Misfits Card.

Sources close to BBC Sport reveal that Amir Khan, the former light-welterweight world champion, is currently in discussions to feature on an upcoming Misfits card.

In an unexpected turn of events, 37-year-old British boxing sensation Amir Khan is rumored to be considering a showdown against none other than KSI, the famous YouTuber who transitioned into the boxing ring. This potential matchup is generating immense buzz within the sports entertainment world.

The Misfits organization, co-founded by KSI and in collaboration with Wasserman Boxing, prides itself on blending sports with entertainment, creating a unique and captivating experience for fans worldwide.

Adding to the intrigue is Khan's recent return to the spotlight after serving a two-year doping ban following his bout against Kell Brook in February 2022. With his ban now expired, Khan seems eager to make a splash in the boxing scene once again.

In a social media post that set tongues wagging, Khan hinted at negotiations with KSI and expressed his openness to facing YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in the future. 

"Be cautious what you desire," Khan cryptically advised Paul and KSI, teasing a potential clash that could redefine the boundaries between traditional boxing and the digital era.
