The winner of Garcia vs Guerrero will have to face Amir Khan

On January 23, the newly promoted welterweight and undefeated Danny García will face Robert Guerrero, who carries the penance in his name. This pair will compete for the welterweight belt of the World Boxing Council, a belt that was left vacant after Floyd Mayweather's retirement.

The World Boxing Council determined that Guerrero and García could contend for that belt, regardless of the fact that Amir Khan has been the number one challenger for some time now. However, different situations, such as Mayweather's refusal to fight him and the crossing of Ramadan (a religious celebration of Muslims), has not been able to validate his option to fight for the welterweight title and thus aspire to achieving a new championship in a different weight category.

The new welterweight champion will come out of this key

To correct this small defect, the president of the World Boxing Council, Mauricio Sulaimán, assured that the winner of this fight, who becomes the champion, must face Khan to fulfill the rule that the champion faces the best of the ranking.

On the other hand, Khan has a tentative return date to the ring in March, so both the winner of the Guerrero and García fight and Amir would be available for the fall, after Ramadan ends.

Perhaps the fight that Khan awaits is the one that gives him the rematch against Danny García, who defeated him in 2012 by knockout, so it would be a unique opportunity to return the favor.
