Originally posted by -Kev- View PostThe question is, who would turn down Pacquiao. No active fighter would say no to a Pacquiao fight, that's a privelage, not something that is owed to Khan, he hasn't earned it. If you lose, you come out as a winner in the bank. Khan refuses to fight the top WW's. His last top 5 fighter was Zab Judah, ranked #5 at JWW. His last top 10 win was Alexander, ranked #9 at WW. If we focus on his last top 5 win, it was 5 years ago. Now as a Khan fan, you have to be disappointed at that. The most ridiculed fighters on Earth have fought top 5 fighters more recently than Khan.
Talking about Pacquiao specifically he has fought guys coming off losses and 10 rounders, so Khan coming off Alexander and Algieri isn't bad at all.

Pacquiao has fought guys coming off losses/draws/layoffs and bad performances like Mosley, Rios, Clottey, Margarito and he got ripped for it by the critics, although the Clottey match was not bad coming in, since many felt Clottey was the true winner in the Clottey-Cotto fight and should have gotten the nod and therefore the win and the first crack at Pacquiao.
Regardless, it's Pacquiao's last fight. Don't get me wrong, Pac-Khan would have been interesting, but not that interesting. Khan has not shown that he is elite. He did not show it against Julio Diaz, almost losing on the cards and getting dropped, all while the fight taking place in England, with English judges and an English ref and he still just got by Diaz. He just got by Algieri. He wasn't even close to beating Garcia. He struggled and looked terrible vs Peterson. People say his speed this, speed that, but where is his speed when he is struggling against C rate and B rate fighters and where is his speed when he is unable to beat the more decent guys of the sport? I get your point, that Pacquiao has fought bad fighters in the past, but that doesn't mean that he should just give a fight to all undeserving fighters every time.

Then Khan cant fight due to ramadan. Danny keeps the belt and fights a voluntary. Khan remains a legend in his own mind without fighting.
