    Manny is old and has not been on top in years, but if we are living in reality there is no way in hell Khan beats him. Manny is still accurate and has a good enough defense to time and evade Khans repetitive shots. I really don't see how anyone thinks this guy can beat any top tier boxer period. His defense sucks, his chin is horrible and his I.Q is down right terrible. He does the same thing over and over again and falls for any and all feints, He gets by off of his speed at the beginning of fights but once he is timed it goes down hill.

      With that weak chin there aren't many world class welter weight fighters Khan can best and Pac sure as hell isn't one of them.

        He is deluding himself. He wants the Pacquiao fight for the money. He thinks he might be able to beat a 39 year old. If he had any balls and confidence in himself he would try to avenge his losses to Peterson, Prescott and Garcia.They are all active welterweights who would love to rematch him because Khan brings in good money. That's the way Lewis did things when he was knocked out. People will never forget his losses or his wins against cherry pick mediocre fighters like Vargas who damn near knocked him out and made him look like garbage. Khan is shot to hell. All he has left is his name. The good fighter Khan who fought Judah, Paulie and Maidana is history. Today's Khan is not good enough to be a world champion. Brook or Pacquiao would slaughter him. They are ten times better than Vargas.

            Kinda odd people are stil saying Pac is 39 when it is known that he lied about his age so he can go pro at 16 (when you have to be 18 to be ranked).

              He will become one of the ATG if he can beat pac clearly. Floyd couldn't beat pac clearly that's why his own father and trainer uncle roger thinks that he should rematch and beat pac clearly to be called as one of the greatest.

                No one give him respect because he didnt beat pac just like bradley.

                  Depends on how he beats him because Manny is yet to be truly dominated and made to look old

                  Pac does not look shot to me

                    Thats because most people felt Manny won, even his haters like Boxingego and the LBC.

                      He would have to dominate Pacquiao convincingly like how Marquez did it.


                      Otherwise a win against Pacquiao these days is not worth that much on your record. Ask Jeff Horn.
