Does Khan actually think he's getting a PAC fight?

As of now talks are in full swing between Khan's management team (His father etc) and Bob Arum who are trying to get a fight sorted in Qatar February 2016. The Khan haters and Brook fan boys can claim Khan is going to fight Mosley or a nobody all they want to, but the facts are Khan is going to sit this year out and fight Manny Pac next year.
    I hope you're right cause the guy waited and waited for Mayweather for years, fighting lower level guys so he wouldn't lose.

      Khan has made millions and is financially secure, his career has already set him for life. He doesn't need to fight anybody, he doesn't need to fight a certain amount of times a year like Thurman, Brook, Porter etc those guys need to fight. Khan is in a position where he can pick and choose.

        If I'm Khan, I'm not trying to hear it from Haymon anymore. He's been sitting here trying to get a Floyd fight for a while now. And to make it worst, Berto of all ppl got it before him. Lol he should try to get Manny be any means man. Even if it's speaking up to big bad ****** loving Haymon.

          Kid should just retire then.

          I think most want to see him get absolutely flattened one more time though

            just british $$$$ is enough.

            they'll pack wembley.

              The only fighter who can flatten Khan is Keith Thurman. Garcia won't do it again, Brook is not good enough, Porter is not good enough. Thurman is the only fighter who is 50/50 can knock Khan clean out.

                  That's what a lot of the boxing fans don't seem to grasp. They always bring up "Why is khan going to fight floyd for less money then he can make fighting brook?". It's not about the money with Khan now, it's about legacy and proving a point. He's next in line for the WBC title, so what ever happens, hopefully khan can become a two weight world champion.

                      Seems that Khan wants to fight name fighters so he can look back one day to say that he fought them. Legacy is King and that's the type of spirit we need to see replicated among more boxers today. If Khan's conduct inspires the hearts and minds of more upcoming boxers, within 12 years we may have a re-emergence of a golden age in boxing once again and it may well be that Khan could be the catalyst behind that.
