Boxing: Khan to fight Judah on July 23

LONDON: WBA champion Amir Khan is set to face Zab Judah in a light-welterweight unification contest in Las Vegas on July 23. Khan (25-1, 17KO) will go to the fight on the back of a controversial victory over Paul McCloskey, which he won by technical knockout after the Irishman sustained a cut above his eyes. After failing to persuade Timothy Bradley into the ring, the Khan will now take on former welterweight champion Judah in a contest that will unify their titles.
