Unbeaten European champion Paul McCloskey is not concerned with Amir Khan's training benefit of being able to spar with the pound for pound king, Manny Pacquiao. Both boxers are trained by Freddie Roach. McCloskey challenges Khan for the WBA 140-pound title on April 16 at the MEN Arena in Manchester.
McCloskey sees absolutley no benefit to the sparring, despite the fact that he and Pacquiao are both southpaws.
"I'm completely different to Pacquiao. Manny's an aggressive, come-forward [boxer] who punches in bunches," McCloskey told Sky Sports. "I'm a slick mover, a thinker - I think my skills can cause him a lot of problems."
