    Schooled him in sparring? :lol:, yeah there's also a clip where Pacquiao lands a single clean blow with headgear on and Khan froze like a refrigerator.

    There's a big difference in saying you want to fight the best and actually doing it.

    I think Khan's offense is enough to finish Pacquiao, but that chin is suspect.

    I don't think Khan can be stupid enough at this point under Virgil to go toe to toe...however Pacquiao has the ability and would likely hurt Khan at some point and him trying to fight rather than box Pac could happen. It would be a very exciting fight for the first few rounds...Khan getting off from the outside with Pac countering effectively and closing the distance with his fast feet getting off enough offensively...Question is when Pacquiao wobbles Khan and is in a position to finish...or somehow if Khan can miraculously get through the full 12 rounds...Pacquiao tiring after the 7-8th would be helpful. If Khan had that Bradley jaw and ability to work at a high pace for 12 rounds (Khan has slowly lost that ability) then he'd have a decent boxing chance to win

    Khan doesn't have much chance of winning but it would still be a good fight imo. What I think would happen is some entertaining early rounds, both guys showing their speed and combination punching. Early rounds are close and competitive with Khan having the edge and being ahead on points. Khan maybe even hurts or drops Pacquiao. Pacquiao comes back to score an exciting, come from behind knockout victory.

    khan can not even outbox pacman pacmans boxing ability is highly underrated

    khan at some point will trade with pacman and that's it one left from pacman will do it....... could you imagine khan talking the shots bradley took in the rematch against pacman no way!

    khan would get knocked down early and hurt, then proceed to run for his life.

    I wish they'd set this up but no way it will happen. Pac Man wins though, Khant kan not take pac's punches i dont think.

    Why don't Khan show as much enthusiasm to fight a young buck like Porter or Thurman?

    At least by beating them he would of actually earned a fight.

    Cmon MVC......

    Everyone wants Mayweather to either fight Pac or Khan.

    Thurman aint ready, and Porter would be another Hatton for May at this point.

    While most ppl think Khan has a better chance beating Mayweather than he does Pac, and most believe Khan aint even top 5 at WW......he still #2 in terms of likelihood of beating Mayweather.:deal

    pac fighting khan or algieri or vargas ain't a cherrypick since he would fight floyd if floyd man up.

    Nope. If we're being honest. All three of those match ups are cherry picks. But a Khan fight is passable and should make Pac look pretty good.

    cherrypicking in terms of boxing is when a fighter takes on an easier fight that's available. pac is available, pac wants to fight floyd. problem is floyd's scared. if pac goes on to fight anyone, it can't be considered a cherrypick since he also wants to fight the toughest available for him.

    cherrypicking is like choosing the path with less resistance.
