    we have footage that confirms the rumours are true...

    Khan was landing cleaner shots.

    Manny needs to get his head together.

    No wonder Manny said to Khan "You can beat Mayweather"

    show your evidence if you speak the truth, until then that 24/7 was nothing more than a failed hype job for a bull**** title fight.

    You know they show you that stuff to help promote the fight. I guarantee you if they showed the full sparring video it was Pac whooping up on Khan

    Also Freddie said it from his own mouth

    "Khan was punching the **** out of Manny"

    Manny just needs to step up and focus more thats all

    yeah that episode was quite bad if you are rooting for pacquiao. yes it was made to hype this fight but that sparring session and coupled with pac's new job as a congressman will still leave you thinking.

    Half of boxing is Politics Brother, Freddy knows this and is one of the best at hyping a fight.

    Agreed. Pac dosent seem to a give a **** about the fight in the episode. I think this will be his toughest fight and he dosent seem to give a **** about it.

    Around 90-95% of people here were wrong when they said hoya would have an easy time beating pacquiao. I think the same people including myself are commtting the same mistake this time around.

    He was ALOT more focused against De la Hoya and in fairness he beat a statue that night. He was weight drained to ****. This is Pac's toughest fight I believe.

    Who knows how long Pac was in the ring before Khan was brought in. Not every sparring session will show the preparing fighter's best work. Although it is definitely interesting topic to think about.

    what people have to realise is it's just sparring. muhammad ali was known to get pummelled in sparring, yet on the night of the fight where it really matters, he was great.

    pacquiao getting beaten up by khan has no indication of how he will perform against margarito, for one khan is fast, margarito is not. personally though i think margarito will be a tough fight for pacquiao, but that doesn't have no reflection on pacquiao's performance in sparring, but more to do with margarito's size and workrate causing problems later in the fight.

    pacquiao to beat margarito by decision with worrying signs later in the fight.

    If you watch Khan's and Pacmans sparring on youtube you will be very surprised at how competitve it is, khan appears to bully him from time to time and that is not just for this camp.

    Khan will beat Manny and Floyd in 2.5 years admittedly both will be past it.
