    A Pacquiao vs Khan fight is what is needed for boxing to bounce back.

    Boxing needs an all out ,electric action packed fight, to get people talking about boxing again. I mean Rousey vs Holm's was more entertaining than any star studded boxing match since Pacquiao v Marquez 4.

    Yes Bradley v Provodnikov, Rodriguez-Takayama and Matthyse vs Molina were exciting, but they aren't really big names. Khan has done well to keep his name alongside Pacquiao and Mayweather in the mainstream media, and eventhough his obsessed pursuit of the two was annoying and at times cringeworthy, it made perfect PR sense.

    Pacquiao v Khan has the perfect ingredients to be a megafight across the globe. Both Pacquiao and Khan's styles are loved in the US, Mexico and UK. A true Super fight for the masses

          I would love to see Khan looking like Velma Dinkley when she drops her glasses, inspecting the canvas thoroughly before going to sleep. But then again, I would also love to see Khan be pushed aside yet again and watch him fight another bum as he claims to be in line for a Floyd/Pacquiao fight.

            I don't think Khan's style is exciting these days. He holds a lot and seldom hurts anybody. I don't think Pacquiao should reward trash talking Khan with a big payday. First Khan hasn't done much at welterweight and 2nd he has been badmouthing Pacquiao ever since he quit Roach. He told Mayweather easy work after Mayweather beat Pacquiao and he brags on beating Pacquiao up in sparring. Pacquiao should tell him to fuc off. Crawford deserves the fight more and has a much more fan friendly style. Plus Crawford's 140 pound world title would be one the line giving Pacquiao a chance to win a world title in a new weight class. Khan hasn't been a champion since Garcia flattened him over 3 years ago.

                Like others have already said Khan hasn't had an exciting style since he left Roach's training

                  Roach has his limitations but his style is attack and attack. Generally it creates exciting fights.

                  Khan is not as fan friendly, but I do feel he could be with Pac. IMO it would be a very good fight because both can hit each other.

                    Pac will go for an easy option in Crawford...
