I can't imagine Kahn would ever fancy a bit of this judging from what he has said and given the probable outcome, but I am sure you chaps heard Roach mention it as a possibility. I wonder what the situation would be regarding who Roach would train? Would anyone give Kahn a shot?
Khan, in sparring, was holding his own vs pac, but that was just sparring. I can't see this ever happening. If it did, khan would do ok early, but pacs relentlessness would be too much for khan to cope with.
I'm sick of hearing that crap. Khan doesnt stand a chance against Manny. A few rounds in Khan would have nothing to offer and he aint tough enough to last the 12 against a dude like Paquiao
Roach was joking when he said it, and would never allow the fight to happen. if the circumstances changed to where they could fight - right now, I'd favor Pac w/o blinking. In a year or two, the margin between the two isn't quite as wide.
If Khan had any kind of chin or any kind of discipline, he could win this fight. But in the real world, I would be shocked if Khan saw the second round.
Too bad Kahn isn't a washed up fighter. Because if they fought and Amir landed so much as much as a jab we could therefore conclude a prime version would have taken out Manny in one-sided fashion.
Khan is devoid of real skills on a world class level. He's like Berto, lots of speed, limited skills.
