    Seems like Khan has an option of fighting Pacquiao or Brook at 147 for his next fight

    The UK fans are demanding the Brook fight, but Hearn suggests a fight with Pacquiao will do numbers on an international stage.

    A Brook fight provides a domestic rivalry and a decent name on the resume, with a big pay day and a potential stadium fight

    A Pacquiao fight provides a fight with a boxing legend, and catching him at a time which gives Amir a good opportunity to beat him.
    There’s a story between the two and respect, with the two being sparring partners a while back.
    The fight earns him millions and another high profile fight.


    So for all you guys outside of the UK, who do you guys think Amir should fight next? And why

    One guy will knock him out and forever scar his ego for a few million, the other will knock him out for many million. It's a no brainer

    Why do you say that Khan has the option of fighting Pacquiao?

    Because he does...... Pacquiao’s team have spoken with Hearn after Khans fight last weekend and said they want the fight.
    Thus he has the option of Brook or Pacquiao next

    Khan has been begging for a Pacquiao fight for years. I find it hard to believe that he wouldn't jump at the chance if it was available. In fact, Khan said a couple a days ago that he was giving Pac two weeks to decide to fight him. Something seems a little off to me.

    Khan said recently that the pacquiao fight is 60-70% done so its likely that it will be next in december

    Arum is more credible than Khan.
