Amir Khan’s promoter Eddie Hearn believes his fighter has “half a dozen” options for his next opponent following his first-round demolition of Phil Lo Greco on Saturday night.

Khan, back in the ring for the first time since losing to Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez in May 2016, stunned Lo Greco with a first-round knockout in just 39 seconds.

Having signed a three-fight deal with Matchroom, Khan is expected to return to the ring in late August.

Here Press Association Sport assesses who the 31-year-old could potentially meet now.

Kell Brook

Adrien Broner

Trash-talking Broner was someone Khan suggested he was interested in. The 28-year-old American has fought numerous times at the 147 limit Khan feels most comfortable at and their schedules would fit given Broner was also in action on Saturday, when he had a majority draw against Jessie Vargas. Broner has only won three of his last six fights and may therefore be attracted by a big payday in Britain, though there would no world title to make it even more appealing to Khan.

Errol Spence Jr

Manny Pacquiao

This one, between two of trainer Freddie Roach’s former fighters, came close to happening in the past. In February 2017 the two men announced on Twitter that they had agreed terms on a date in April, yet in March Pacquiao’s promoter Bob Arum stated it would not go ahead. Pacquiao, who recently split from Roach, would then fight in Australia against Jeff Horn, to whom he lost his WBO welterweight title. Pacquiao  turns 40 this year so time is running out to sort out a deal with Khan.

Danny Garcia

When Khan was brutally knocked out by Alvarez, he dismissed talk of retirement and stated his wish to avenge his defeat to Garcia in 2012. Khan was stopped in the fourth round by Garcia in Las Vegas to suffer his second successive loss and he split from Roach shortly after. In a Twitter question-and-answer session in December, Khan said the Garcia loss was the toughest of his career and that he “wasn’t focused”.

Keith Thurman

Another unbeaten welterweight world champion, another attractive proposition to Khan. Thurman has a 28-0 record, with 22 knockouts, and his last victory came over Garcia in March 2017. Thurman himself said he was “highly interested” in facing Khan back in 2015, though he has never fought outside of North America so may be reluctant to cross the Atlantic.
