    What's really frustrating as a boxing fan is that EVERYONE seems to be calling out and dissing Pac: Khan, Pauli, broner, etc, EXCEPT for the only guy that matters - Floyd. It almost seems like Al Haymon is ordering his other fighters not named Floyd, to start bashing Pac.

      To be fair to Khan, he's just talking himself up as he desperately wants the Floyd fight and the money that goes with it. Cant blame the guy, but its pretty obvious. He'd be better off focusing on Gruntslap as he will find himself on his ass if he isnt concentrating 100%.

          Seriously, this "Pacquiao is old" talk is nonsense. He still looks really good in there. He's a dangerous fight for Mayweather, and damn near a guaranteed "L" for anyone not named Mayweather or Marquez.
          If i am a construction worker while u have an office job, who do u think will age quicker and show visible signs of it first? U or me?

            Come on Lazza, you know what he means. Real age and boxing age are different things altogether.

              Floyd aint no spring chicken either, his punches used to be lighting fast, but now they are fast but fighters can see them coming a lot better. His footwork is starting to look sloppy and he cant see punches as well. This idea that floyd is invincible because he is floyd is growing tired, he is aging too. People are in denial just like the were with roy jones jr, its not just a couple of bad fights, he is aging.

                Amir Khan takes a break from training at the MGM Grand to state that 'best fighter in the world' Mayweather will beat his former sparring partner if they finally meet



                ..By Gareth A Davies, Las Vegas
                2:16PM GMT 11 Dec 2014

                Amir Khan offered a brief glimpse of his lightning hand speed at the MGM Grand here at the fighter workouts and then joined a media scrum and turned his attention to a possible Floyd Mayweather-Manny Pacquiao fight in 2015.

                His verdict? "In my opinion Mayweather would win that fight. Pacquiao is quite open when he fights and it leaves him open to a lot of shots.

                "As he has grown older, his work rate has dropped a lot, and you can see it in his recent fights.

                "Age gets to all fighters and that time is coming for him. You can see that if you go back over Mayweather and Pacquiao's recent fights. I'm not saying they aren't great fighters, because they are, but age is catching them up."

                And a KO may "catch you up" this Saturday, Amir. Better stay focused on your fight with Alexander.
                ****ing hilarious coming from Khan..Khan makes Manny look like Willie Pep..Khan can't spell defense

                  Pacquiao's defense IS his offense!! If manny was to concentrate more on defense then that would take away his offense which is his best weapon! Sure pac gets hit at times but that's expected when u're on the attack, U leave Urself open.

                    Glass jaw Khan has it all twisted. Sparring is not fighting. If he fought Pacquiao with 8 oz gloves and no head gear, he would get destroyed.

                    Just look at Margacheeto, Cotto, DLO, Rios and Bradley, once they got hit full force their game plan changed.
