♦ Gomez next up for Amir

I save my best for the big occasion. I went to Scotland to fight Alex Arthur, who had a virtually identical record to Amir, and I blew him away in the fifth round. I'm going to do the same thing to Khan. Michael Gomez will get the chance to put an end to Amir Khan's unbeaten record after it was announced the pair will do battle on June 21.
