Has Khan Been Sizing Pacquiao Up?

I'm always hearing about them sparring. I know they're in the same gym and have the same trainer, but I remember before Pac fought Margarito, how eager Khan was to spar against Pac...
It was almost similar to how he's been calling Mayweather out in the media, he was telling the media he couldn't wait to spar Pac... I have to give it to Khan. He's the type of guy that would fight his best friend just to be the best. I don't think it's anything personal with Khan, I just think he wants to be the best.
Honestly, I think the only thing stopping that fight is Freddie Roach. As soon as Roach retires or steps down (given Pac sticks around), I can see Khan calling Pac out the same way Holmes did Ali.... Keep in mind, Holmes and Ali were sparring partners also.....
Former champion Amir Khan is attempting to apply pressure on WBC welterweight king Floyd Mayweather Jr. Khan has already revealed that he signed a bout agreement to face Mayweather on May 3rd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. But Mayweather has yet to sign his end of the contract, according to Khan. There is a possibility that Mayweather will take a pass on Khan, and instead face WBA welterweight champion Marcos Maidana, who recently upset Adrien Broner.

Because during that time in 2011, the "only" thing stopping that fight WAS Freddie Roach.
Khan always wanted to fight Pac, but the conflict in trainers never allowed it to materialize. Roach even validated this years ago.
I'm just saying I knew Khan wanted the fight years ago when they were so called friendsComment
