Amir Khan to fight for WBA and WBC belts when he takes on Danny Garcia The light-welterweight re-match between former IBF and WBA champion Khan and Lamont Peterson, who won their first match with a split-decision in December, was slated for May 19 but has been cancelled after Peterson tested positive for testosterone, a banned substance. Schaefer said Golden Boy Promotions sent letters to the WBA, IBF and the D.C. Commission requesting that the organisations "rule the fight a no-contest," and asking "the IBF and the WBA to re-instate Amir Khan as their champion." Last night, Schaefer told RingTV.com in the United States that the WBA notified him that it will sanction Khan's bout with Garcia (23-0, 14 KOs). "I've got verbal confirmation that the WBA is going to have Amir fight for the WBA title, so that's that," said Schaefer. As it relates to the WBC, we already know that the fight is also going to be for the WBC title [owned by Garcia,] so their fight will definitely be for two belts.
