    1. He is an athletic freak of nature. I've never seen a man of his size with such speed and strength.

    2. He is mentally far tougher than Khan could ever be. Khan is from a working class family in Bolton in the north of England. Not a particularly nice place but it's like living in Manhatten when compared with the shanty towns and villages that makes up 99% of Manila. I've spent time traveling in the Philipinnes and have seen the kind of life that Pacquiao was raised in to. You talk about the ******s in the states and what not. That's nothing. Doesn't even come close man. Walking around the shanty towns of Manila makes you ****in cry. Extreme poverty, homelessness, starvation. 7-11 has guards with machine guns. That's why Pac has the character he has. Stepping in to a boxing ring for him is like taking a walk in the park.
    roach used the qualities of PAC as a weapon like u say the heart the toughness etc
    he won't look for that in khan he'll look for his strengths and I think khan will b moulded to b more technical, khan has NO choice but to use his brain becoz if he gets into a tear up he could get KO'd.. He'll b a really good technical fighter in a few years

        Khan will never become greater then Pac. And i am a Khan fan. The reason i say this is because as stated earlier he does not come from a harsh background. Let's say however he was born and raised in Pakistan, then i'd actually give him a shot or maybe the guy would've been a completely different fighter then he is now. Pakistan is REALLY phukked up due to all that **** thats going on down their. The mental toughness Khan has is all basically having to prove everyone wrong. Pac's was having to get money so he could get the phuck outta poverty. Two complete different mentalities. Dont get me wrong, i think Khan may very well go on to become a great fighter, but he will forever remain as probably the second world champion that Roach trained to go on to do great things.

          As I said, you can't compare 'the hood' in the U.S. to Manila, where most people live in cardboard boxes and corrigated iron. I'm just talking about the mental strength side of things. And we're comparing Amir Khan to Manny Pacquiao here, right?

            I voted "Hell yeah" for obvious reasons. but for Amir to be as great or greater then Manny he he has to become atleast a 5 division world champion. I don't see him doing that. I see him doing 4 the most.

                3. He's on PED's too
                4. He's quick and powerful

                na just kiddin on third one but if he ko's paulie I can see this boy doin greater things than pacman

                agree or disagree?
                what? since when did KOing paulie make someone better than pac?

                  I'm not sure he'll be as great as Juan Diaz, should never be compared to Manny!
