    It seems Bob Arum has been giving Manny low pays, taking lots of money for himself and choosing his opponents without even talking with him.

    Pacquiao didn't even know who Jeff Horn was, and somehow Bob Arum has CONFIRMED that he is his next opponent.
    Pacquiao is also asking who do the public want to see him fight next, and has now just put a poll on twitter. I don't see Pacquiao sticking with Bob anymore after his devious doings.

    Don't be quick to call pac man a cherry picker when obviously on his side the opponent isn't picked yet.

    You know he will bend the knee to Arum, he always does. Arum tells him when to urinate ffs. Without Arum's permission, that man can't even go take a crap

    Agreed and it would be a much more exciting fight. Khan (might) outbox Pac for a few rounds than KHAN-BOOM, another pilgrimage on his back.

    Pacquiao is fading. With each fight, he is throwing less punches. And Khan can take a few before succumbing.
    Khans speed and brilliant straight punching, he will get to Pacquiao. Khan has always looked brilliant vs southpaws. Paquiao with his diminishing output and the fact that he has not a had a KO in nearly 8 years - i thinks a recipe for a great fight.

    Didn't Roach claim that he paid Khan out cold multiple times in sparring?

    I also remember him saying Khan had insane cardio in comparison to Manny. Something to do with being able to run up something double the amount of times Pac could.

    And how many years ago was that? Pacquiaos power has definitely faded now. My point was that i think Khan can now take it, and it would make for a good fight since i´m damn sure that Pacquiao is gonna beat him up.
    Funny to think that someone could have so much more stamina than Pacquiao.

    Pacquiao can still ko Khan. Them training together benefits Pac much more than it does Khan in a potential fight as Pacquiao is already somewhat used to his timing. Things don't go well when sparring partners fight who is considered to be the better boxer of the two.

    This Jeff Horn match isn't as bad as people make it out to be since Horn was never option #1, he's practically a mandatory opponent, and Horn is the highest rated guy in the WBA that Pacquiao hasn't already beaten. They tried with Crawford, Garcia, Thurman, MAYBE Porter I'm not sure. Brook is unavailable; he probably would have gotten the match if he didn't have that fight with Golovkin.

    Pac is too care free to pay attention to who his potential opponents are. He's a nice combination of brave and ignorant. Not a diss, just my opinion.

    Pacquiao dropped Vargas. He'll stop Amir.

    I can't figure out why those fighters don't take the fight. I would have, even for a smaller cut. Could it be they are not confident of beating him?
