    Khan needs to have his team in contact with TR, oh wait he is signed to Al Haymon he might not even get Paquiao as a plan B. Mayweather of course being plan A. That would be some s##t if he doesn't fight either of them, even if Pac and Floyd don't fight each other. He needs to start thinking about plan C Brook in the UK just in case. I just don't see Al Haymon letting Khan fight Pac, if Khan doesn't land the Mayweather fight to be honest.

        Lets look at this realistically for a second. I don't see any scenario for a pacman khan fight. First of all khan works for al haymon who refuses to match any of his fighters against top rank opponents so there would be a huge obstacle from the rip considering it has never happened and haymon would do everything he could to block it.

        Secondly, if mayweather ducks pacquiao, who could there possibly be for him to face other than cotto? It looks like cotto is about to fight canelo so right there tells you his plan b will probably be khan.

        In addition, if mayweather somehow steals cotto away from canelo, I could almost guarantee Oscar and arum would make pacman canelo for may 2nd. That's almost guaranteed. Oscar said a few months ago that canelo was looking for all the big names and that included pacquiao. They have tried to make that fight in the past but it never went through. Arum and Oscar both hate mayweather and that would be the ultimate way to get back at him. Take his may date and ppv crown away from him, and there would be a huge boycott of Floyd fights because the whole world would know who truly ducked this time.
        Imagine how much action that fight would have? It would easily sell over 2 million, and might even break the record.

        In summation, I don't see any realistic scenario of khan fighting pacquiao, unless he signs with top rank because after all his last fight was his last fight on his contract with golden boy so he is a fee promotional agent. He could realistically sign with top rank and haymon would have no choice but to let him fight top rank fighters which include Tim Bradley, Manny pacquiao, and also dlterance Crawford and Mikey Garcia who will be moving up in weight. Also there is awinner of Alvarado and Rios, as well as other up and comers like Jose Benavidez Jr. That is the only realistic scenario I see this fight happening, but its still a shot in the dark, looks like he will be added out again but so what he hasn't really done anything extraordinary.

        The fight with pacquiao would be good though. Two of the fastest in boxing. Manny would come to the ring accompanied by Shawn Michaels because he will surely administer the sweet chin music upon khans doofy mouth, thereby shutting it permanently.

              Brilliant.....so while we are at it, we should just make a list of all the fighters we think Mayweather can beat and then just let Mayweather fight them on paper and let those other fighters fight each other so Mayweather wont have to step in the ring to prove it. Hell, while we are at it, lets just list all the top guys in each division that we think other fighters cant beat and they wont even have to box since "it makes no difference" according to you! We can just say they are better! "what difference does it make"?. Uh, the difference is we watch boxing to see fights, not just pretend that a guy is better and doesn't have to prove it. This is boxing, anything can happen and huge upsets happen every year, and minor ones more often. One any given night, either guy could beat the other one or even fight to a draw. But hey, lets just all claim what difference does it make and say one fighter is better than the other and cancel boxing since apparently it doesn't make any difference to you. Gee, thanks for saving me from ever having to watch boxing just to see who wins since to you it "makes no difference". Get real.
              Good point. How can he call himself the best ever when he hasn't even proven himself the best of this era? You need to fight the best and beat them to be considered the best. Its not like pacquiao just popped up at the end of his career when he is old and fading. They have been number 1 and 2 for years, pacquiao number one for many of them. They need to fight once and for all to determine the best of this era

                Where is Lullilay or Lulliby or whatever? I was telling that dude not more than a few days ago that Khan was going to be left out in the cold. He was ragging on Bradley or something for signing with Top Rank but I told him, Bradley is making bank and fighting recognized comp. Khan is and has been begging for that Mayweather fight for over two years now.

                      I like khan-pacauiao a lot but on the downside we wont see khan leave floyd in the dust after pac smashes khan.
