Amir Khan can exercise a rematch clause but has hinted he could retire.

The Sheffield star, 35, stopped Khan in the sixth round in front of 21,000 fans at a packed AO Arena to bring an end a 10-year war of words between the pair of former world champions.

But that might not be the end of it, should Bolton brawler Khan fancy another dust-up.

And the pair certainly left British fight fans wanting more as they produced a thrilling slugfest in their pay-per-view showdown.

However, promoter Ben Shalom does not expect it to be exercised.

Speaking before the bout, he revealed: “There is a rematch clause as a precaution should anything go wrong.

“But I can’t see it going to a rematch. This could end in a knockout and I don’t think the other fighter will want a rematch after this.

“Whoever wins on Saturday night will be the winner and it will be left at that.”

And a disappointed Khan hinted that he may not have any fight left after being outclassed by his old foe.

The world unified world light-welterweight champion said:”I need to sit down with my family.

“That love for the sport is not there anymore like it was before.

“I felt quite flat, I think that’s maybe a sign I should be calling it a day, but let’s see.”
