Wow, he put up a poll and asked his fans who he should fight. They voted, and he went through with it. Imagine that. Remember when Floyd tried that, Khan won and then Floyd said "**** that, he's too dangerous." then he fought Maidana?
Good fight, this will be interesting. I'm guessing it'll be in Vegas . . . T-Mobile Arena?? I favor Khan, this will be a hard fight for Pacquiao at this stage in his career.
In all seriousness I like any fight with Khan involved. He is the most entertaining boxer to watch today. He always looks good with fast combos and movement, but equally you know the chicken dance is never far away. If Khan could learn to be a little more elusive and tuck his chin in, he'd be a p4p fighter
At least Khan can afford a solid gold sarcophagus with these paydays he's securing for himself. And, with this matchmaking, he won't have to wait long to use it.
He will outbox PAC from a distance but I doubt he keeps that chin out for 12 rounds. On one hand he could barely manage to keep off Peterson, on another hand he survived and beat maidana. Khan is very good, in terms of pure out-boxing ability, he is probably up there with Rigo in how dominant he is. His chin is his weakness and PAC has enough power, speed, timing, footwork to land a few of those over 12 rounds. Great fight, PAC ko 6.
Maidana is more dangerous than Khan though...Even though he should of fought Khan or why even do a poll.
Miscalculation on Floyd's part. You don't really think Floyd said to himself "I'm gonna give the fans what they want and go for the more dangerous fight," do you?!
