    IMO It has to be Pacquiao vs Khan

    People have been saying its gonna be Crawford or the winner of Bradley/Rios but I highly doubt it.

    Khan despite his big mouth is by far the most attractive option for Pacquiao because he'll bring in more money than the other options combined.

    Khan is also an easier fight than Crawford, Khan may be bigger and faster but he is a hyper aggressive fighter with a glass chin and poor ring IQ, and Freddie knows his weaknesses.

    IMO they just used Crawford as a bargaining chip to teach loudmouth Khan a lesson.

    It's gonna be Pacman vs Amir

    If this is Pac's last fight, no it will be Crawford, if not then it may be Khan, so Pac can get a KO victory and set up a Mayweather rematch.

      Crawford deserves it a lot more than Khan who has not been significant in a couple years.

        negative,khan is haymon property therefore arum wont risk not only putting money in haymons pockets,but also the chance of khan winning and bringing pacs belt over to the pbc series

        theres literally 0 incenitive to fight khan when BUD is there to be the next star,plus his style is much more likly to beat pac,which is what arum probably wants

          Why is it a given that Khan would be bigger money "than the others combined"?? Has he ever even headlined a ppv? Outside the UK, no one really cares about Kahn. I think people might be more intrigued by Crawford and I think they probably sell comparably. Kahn isn't going to bury Crawford in the numbers. He's known but not liked.

            Isn't exactly why people buy Mayweather's PPVs?

            Yes, Khan would be the B side in this, but you need two (liked/disliked) to tango.

              Khan has a special contract with Haymon, where he can tell Al to sit this (Pac) one on the bench.

                ok well that still leaves the possibility that khan wins,then he takes pac's belts over to PBC and then gets KTFO by literally any of the welters who have power and it all goes to **** for top rank,whereas crawford could be carrying that belt

                  Good points. You might be right and we should know his opponent soon.

                    Pacquiao is supposed to have the final say on who he will fight. All Arum can do is try to talk him into a particular opponent.
