    Amir Khan does an awful lot of talking for a guy who was bullied of a non puncher in Peterson and KTFO off Danny Garcia.

    Also for an alleged top fighter who's best win since 2011 was over a shopworn recovering alcoholic in Collazo.

    Why doesn't Khan call out the names of the Porters and Thurmans of this world? Or even Maidana?

    Pac would KO Khan within a round.
    Amir is a B-grader, if Pac can't KO him early - he best hang em up.

    Fastest guy at 147 based on fighting Collazo and Diaz?, no offense but I think you're the one that's high.

    Collazo did hurt Khan and had him rocked and holding on from single punches. Khan also looked like he was tiring late against Collazo and his new grappling tactic, which is a smart addition by Hunter, helped him fight through it.

    Arum is the one that makes decisions not Roach, even if Roach did he would gladly allow it considering Pacquiao's obvious lack of opponent and Khan being an easy target for Pacquiao's style. It's Al Haymon and Golden Boy that won't allow it and would rather save Khan for a Mayweather payday. Khan is only talking smack to look relevant as usual, he knows that his team won't make this fight.

    Sadly, past it Pacquiao won't knock Khan out in one round. Pacquiao will be slow early till he eventually starts to open up from round 3 on-wards. Expect Khan to kiss the canvas and eventually get knocked out within 6 rounds at most.

    Because Pacquiao is ranked higher than them and would earn him more money and fame if he won. Any boxer would rather fight Pacquiao than those guys.

    This is a decent match-up so I wouldn't mind seeing it happen. Much better than Pacquiao vs Rios.

    'Team' Khan have been cherry picking since they realised he's no where as good as they originally thought after Garcia showed him up.

    The only reason they're looking at Pacquaio is due to him slowing down significantly over the last few years. Do you think they'd of been calling for a fight 2 years ago?

    Are we talking about the same PAC that took a dirt nap not to long ago?

    Could be.

    But I think that's the same bloke who just beat the number 3/4 P4P fighter in Bradley.

    Khan does not have the chin to beat Pac.

    Khans faster than pac, he moves a lot and has a good jab. I can see khan keeping pac away and winning on pts with the chance of him being stopped although pac doesn't seem to hit as hard and khan has become a lot better defensively and holds.

    Pacquiao is still a top fighter in the division and P4P and is still probably better than Porter, Thurman and Maidana.

    Yes, he's been calling out Floyd who is even better than Pacquiao. Khan would still be calling Pacquiao out now even if Manny was prime. Khan wants the money. He doesn't mind risking getting KO'd if he has the chance of glory and a big payday.

    Would be a frustrating fight to watch if khan just holds and runs when he feels the ropes.
