KHAN CAN REJOIN ELITE

AMIR KHAN has been told he will be back in the big time if he beats Samuel Vargas.

Khan (right), 31, faces Vargas at Arena Birmingham on Saturday in his first fight at welterweight in over three years. And promoter Eddie Hearn claims he will have his pick of big fights after this. Hearn is already in talks with Manny Pacquiao about a possible December date, while a clash with bitter rival Kell Brook remains on the table. “He has the option to do whatever he wants, whether he wants the big pay-per-view fight in December or February, or if he wants to go out to America instead,” said Hearn.
