WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman talked with Sky Sports about Amir Khan and his shot at Danny Garcia.
Sulaiman told Sky Sports: “Unfortunately, Amir Khan has an injury in his hand that required surgery so he’ll be out for the rest of the year. Khan is the mandatory for the division so we will wait until he’s healed and ready to fight. Absolutely [Garcia will fight in the meantime]. He’s a champion and can’t wait for challengers to heal so Garcia will be active. I believe Garcia will be defending in October and then we’ll see when Khan is ready for it.”
