    Apparently this was Team Khan telling people that it was basically done, they are/were trying to push it.

    I do not think Pacquiao Vs Khan will ever happen, Arum dislikes the idea of a Khan fight, especially after Canelo rolled him out, Khan cashed out too early.

    Khan would love this fight,it is just the kind of fight he likes....a smaller guy without a KO for 8 years !it is perfect for him...

    i called it in another thread a few days ago,he will never fight Brook,Thurman or Spence...genuine welters who would banjo him in under 6 rounds

    5 years bud not 8. Granted, that's still a long time.

    Haha, he got unbelievably sparked by Marquez. Apologies, that was a proper brain fart.

    8 years, Christ on a bike that's a long time. I would still fancy him to outwork Khan though.

    Khan and Pac are absolute nothing to do with any proper fight....its a joke

    Khan wanted Floyd and Pac not just for the money but because they are small guys who dont KO opponents !!it is so obvious

    Khan would defo fight Broner too because he cannot cut it at 147 either....the guy is irrelevant

    Pac would stop Khan, khan's chin has deteriorated even more due to inactivity.

    I can certainly get on board with this. I think even this Pac can get the KO here

    Win or Lose Khan is guaranteed to be A side vs Brook after this

    Win and Khan will go down as being the superior fighter in comparison to Brook and have the far greater legacy even if he went on to lose to Brook down the line.

    Beating Pacman would legitimately make Khan one of Britain's greatest ever fighters

    Some fighters are under appreciated when they are active but when they're gone their legacy is undisputed.

    Add Pacman to Khan's CV and there wouldn't be many better British CV's, Brooks is already pathetic in comparison

    You name the better CV's?

    What use is this better CV when he will have been banjoed by 20% of it?

    Good fight if it happens. Even past his best Manny is getting decent enough wins. I sometimes wonder if this could be a passing a torch fight - is manny doing him a favor?

    Good fight for Khan gives him a name but not a fight you completely discount him against - I think Manny would win but he might have small chance against a guy who's just a bit past his best. Manny is slower and isnt stopping guys anymore.

    If Khan looses - he should retire - Brook would most likely beat him and while the Garcia rematch is always tempting his stock is on the way down.
