Khan hoping comeback is a splash hit

LONDON - Amir Khan threw water over Phil Lo Greco after being taunted by the Canadian at a Tuesday news conference to promote the British boxer's return to the ring after almost two years away.

Khan's comeback, which comes after his marital difficulties hogged tabloid headlines and a spell on a British reality TV show, will see him face Lo Greco in Liverpool on April 21.

Lo Greco, who has notched 15 knockouts in winning 28 of his 31 fights, mocked Khan (31-4, 19 KOs) by insisting he had been on a "losing streak" in and out of the ring since losing his last fight against Canelo Alvarez in May 2016.
