    A few days old but haven't seen it posted. I find it interesting how they request such a thing.

    Then again, this fight could really be one fight away, if Khan beats Bradley.

    probably thinking this fight could be huge if Khan beats Bradley. They don't want them to get too friendly and then not want to fight

    khan always said they are even when they spar, but, the truth is, this is a ridiculous match-up. pac will destroy khan

    I really think if they fought Manny would actually feel really bad for what he had done to Khan in that fight .

    For sparring??

    That's ridiculous. The two will never fight, so what's the fear?

    that is smart.

    At this point you can't discount the idea of Pac vs Khan.

    Pac is out of matchups at 147 outside of PBF and Berto. Even at 147, Khan is probably a more financially sensible matchup. Though both Berto and Khan have legit chances of beating Manny via TKO.

    I was actually surprised that they even let them spar in the first place. Khan is a rising star that obviously has the body, speed and natural weight of a WW, or at least that can compete.

    i'm a huge Khan fan, but saying he has a legit chance of ko'ing Pac? That's ridiculous!! The only way he'd ever beat him is on points. And that's still nto gonna happen.

    Other than Mayweather theres really no other big fights out there for Pacquiao.


    If theres nothing left to eat the Hyena will eat its own children.

    Pac is hittable. He is not a ghost. Pac wins with his technical prowess and some defensive moves but Khan is quick enough and big enough to land big punches. Same with Berto.

    At this level, I don't discount anybody - even versus Pac or PBF.

    If they fight I predict Pac to knock him out within 8

    Horrible fight for Khan! Pac would hurt him bad.

    Exactly. Take the headgear and large gloves off and it's lights out for Khan. Everyone knows this.

    freddie should tell manny's people to shut their cocksuckers up, he's the coach he should decide who manny spars.
