    The only thing that changed in Khan's style is that he clinches more. He still has the same flaws.

      He'll fight the safest fight possible. I think he beats Pacquaio now though between the clenching and the fighting at the end of a jab he'll beat him by making it a slow boring fight. Amir isn't going to take the risk and let that straight left land and yeah Pacquaio is getting old and may not hit as hard but the last three people he landed that punch on went straight into the clamshell mode including Floyd in the 4th

        Khan isn't capable of winning that kind of fight. Pacquiao would easily time him. Pacquiao's crushed better jabs than Khan has ever dreamed of having.

          Although Pac stops Khan , it's only made a little interesting by the fact of them knowing each other so well from sparring.
          This fight is more realistic than Mayweather v Khan as that would have been a total mismatch. Look for Khan's dance around the midway mark after a competitive few rounds.......Khan needs to fight a TOP contender first though to prove he's not going to be wheeled out after the first serious exchange , trouble is they know , he'll either just hang around and talk or fight a carefully picked victim ....such a shame Khan has ended up like this .and his fans are having enormous amounts of trouble with spin these days.
          Amir has in fact turned in to a Walter Mitty type character.

              I think the fight would have potential to be very entertaining one! That being said, I wasn't that... impressed with Khan's last fight. I was impressed by Algieri though, to be honest. But Khan... He didn't look very good and if I remember right, wasn't he even stunned by Algieri?

                I think it'd be a good fight IF it gets made, but all I've been reading is how Bob is willing to make this fight happen............in all honesty, what are the chances of Al Haymon working with TR again after the Mayweather vs Pacquiao fight, and is that lawsuit still going on?

                It baffles me when all I read is Khan vs Pac for 2016, but I thought there were some legal issues?

                  great video. Sparring is sparring. Very different from actual fight. In the video i see manny toying with khan and letting him get off a bit. Even laying on the ropes.
