Loeffler is putting unnecessary pressure on the Khan camp, lying to the media that if Khan wins, he will have to face Golovkin next or vacate. The only agreement that Loeffler has is that Canelo must face Golovkin at the 160lb limit after his voluntary defence, which in this case is Amir Khan.
If Khan wins, he can choose to:
1) Have a voluntary defence at 155lbs, and then fight Golovkin at 160lbs ..or
2) Take a voluntary defence at 155lbs, then unify with either Billy Joe Saunders or Danny Jacobs (or whoever holds their titles at that moment in time) at any weight both parties agree to, and then fight Golovkin at the 160lb limit.
So Khan can easily push the Golovkin fight into mid to late 2017, if he is to beat Canelo. Also, Khan can even even make Golovkin come over to the UK, and fight on British soil with British judges.
