AMIR KHAN has targeted a clash with Manny Pacquiao — after he has dispatched Dmitriy Salita.

WBA light-welterweight champion Khan hopes to cap a successful year when he defends his title for the first time against Salita in Newcastle on December 5.

But the 22-year-old Brit has his sights set on a showdown with sparring partner and pound-for-pound king Pacquiao one day in the future.

Khan said: "I will leave it to the promoters but it is a fight that could happen.

"We are at the same weight. You have got Manny, [Juan Manuel] Marquez, [Floyd] Mayweather, myself, Ricky Hatton — it is an exciting weight."

And the Bolton Bomber once again refused to rule out a meeting with fellow Englishman Hatton.

Khan added: "People want to see us fight each other and having two British fighters facing each other would be a huge fight, an explosive fight.

"People always want to see the young lion going to take the old lion out. It's all about timing, picking the right opponent, but we'll see what happens.

"The same with Manny Pacquiao — the fight might happen, even though we are training partners.

"As an amateur I used to fight people from the same gym, you'd spar with each other and then fight each other in championships.

"But I am not going to fight anyone at their peak if I am not at mine, there would be no point and it could spoil my whole career."

As usual The Sun is twisting Khan's words. He never targeted Pacquiao. He said "ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN" in boxing when asked if a fight between him and Pacquiao will ever happen.

What makes him think Pac would wanna waste what few precious months he has in boxing on his delusional ass? I wish he'd stop all the namedropping like he's some superstar worthy of that kind of attention. He's got to earn it first because right now all I can see is hype.
