      I would love to see this fight primarily for two reasons. 1. To see if Khan can handle Pacquiao's power and 2. To see how Pacquiao handles Khan's hand and foot speed.

        Haymon and Arum are the roadblocks. I think,...moreso Al Haymon is to blame ... He seems more hard headed

          Man I've been a fan of Khan for a loooong time and defended him a lot, but even im getting tired of his entitlement complex. Most principled people believe in hard work and earning your shot. Khan seems to think that the boxing world is designed to give him free chance after free chance - typical mentality of the uneducated and lazy.

          Beat someone good, be active, and THEN go on and on and on about floyd/manny. If he keeps this up (and i guess he will) then he will lose a fan.

            Agreed. He hasn't beaten a contender,...even journeyman contender. And has lost a few in his last; losing to Peterson and Garcia.

            Khan isn't entitled to anything at this point. He doesn't deserve a Floyd or Manny jackpot fight. Khan looking for a cash fight .. That's all it is.

              I dont even mind fighter's looking for a cash fight, thats human nature. But to go on and on (and on) about it in the way that he does shows me that he actually believes he's entitled to it and that he is a person of poor taste - real men in society never enjoy listening to a whiner.

              In contrast, I rarely hear him talking about who he's fighting next or who he could fight to actually EARN his spot next - which would be likeable. The more I talk about it, the more I find him kinda odious, and feel like foolhardy myself for defending him so long.

                Lmmfao, "I often went with him to the Philippines so it would make a great fight". Going to the Pines with Pacquiao=Great fight!! Khan needs to go to the Philippines with Thurman then.
