Comments Thread For: Arum Says Khan, Crawford in Lead For Pacquiao Bout

[aboutfkntime]

you can see it coming aye

Arum will always, always prefer the in-house option.

Exactly. But, Khan is supposedly a free agent just using Haymon as a consultant or at least he has more leeway than most Haymon fighters.

That being the case I'd expect Arum to be trying to tie in Khan to fight Crawford or Bradley should he beat Pac.

Pacquiao says "shut up Arum, I'm in negotiations wit Ployd Por a rematch behind your back"..

That's the obvious one to do.

But negotiations are stalling as Floyd insists on Pacquiao coming in one armed and also being allowed larger IV this time.

[SteveM]

Didn't Arum say it's unethical to do business with 2 people at the same time???

These must be just preliminary talks, not business - Arum never contradicts himself.

... This is more likely to represent a "passing the torch" fight, Top Rank in-house... Crawford's da future, doe.

... Khan would be in cards if only this fight is made by and for the Arabs...

[BrometheusBob.]

Aka Pac vs TCraw about to go down.

I hope Khan is at least considering other options because he is potentially heading into a world of rejection.

[kdee]

Crawford deserves this fight I am very happy with this, both great fighters and will be good fight to watch

[FrankieBruno]

I thought Arum said there were no negotiations going on with Khan?

Make ur f'n mind up Arum

He never said that.

Khan was the one who said he pulled out of negotiations and wasn't going to wait around for Pacquiao

The guy is bi-polar. No wonder you like him so much.

Should be TC. Pass the torch, don't give it to the Khan hype.
