Manny Pacquiao Will Face Amir Khan, Says Bob Arum

Manny Pacquiao has seemingly chosen his next opponent, with the Filipino's promoter Bob Arum suggesting Amir Khan is being lined up for a 2016 fight in the Middle East.




Pacquiao was beaten by Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas earlier this month in the fight of the century, as the unbeaten pound-for-pound king produced a tactical masterclass.

Khan was disappointed at Mayweather's decision to face Andre Berto in what could be his final fight on September 12, and Arum has branded that bout "a farce".

 


Pacquiao has been out of the ring since losing to Mayweather in early May, after having surgery on a shoulder injury he blamed for his points defeat in Las Vegas.



Khan is fast, and would no doubt cause Pacquiao some problems, but the Briton would have to out-manoeuvre one of the most experienced fighters in the business.

 


There is set to be little excitement over Mayweather's clash with Berto, but perhaps boxing fans will have something else to get pumped up about if Pacquiao and Khan can work out a deal.

What in the world?! Rihanna was seen with a big roll of duct tape in the audience at the 2015 BET Awards and at first, we just thought it was an interesting accessory choice until she taped up Floyd Mayweather’s mouth!

 


At the BET Awards on Sunday night Rihanna quieted boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather Jr, as she quite literally taped the boxer's mouth shut. There were some hilarious lines at the 2015 BET Awards, but one of the best moments was the result of absolute silence.

Amir Khan Challenges Floyd Mayweather After Win vs. Chris Algieri

Amir Khan celebrated a less-than-convincing victory over Chris Algieri at the Barclays Centre, New York, on Friday night by once again calling out Floyd Mayweather.

The Englishman beat Algieri on a unanimous points decision despite being far from his best, and he immediately set his sights on the unbeaten American. James Robson of the Manchester Evening News provided comments from Khan:

“Look, I think everybody knows Amir Khan wants to fight Floyd. I mean, that’s what we want next. I’m the No. 1 in the WBC. Mayweather is the champion, so let’s make it happen”


Khan will need to produce a much better performance if the Mayweather fight does happen, though, as he looked vulnerable on several occasions against Algieri.

The American was stubborn in his approach to the fight but landed numerous big blows in the early exchanges as the home crowd left Khan feeling like a fish out of water.

However, in the all-important late rounds, the Bolton-born fighter showed exactly why he has the credentials to take on the best of the best.
Despite the obvious fatigue, Khan continued to show pace and agility—something that suggests he could put on more of a spectacle against Mayweather than Manny Pacquiao managed in last month’s supposed “Fight of the Century.”

American TV personality Vinny Guadagnino thinks so, too, as he said both pre and post-fight that Khan can pose a big threat to Mayweather’s unbeaten record:

 



However, "Money" wouldn’t have been quaking in his boots at the prospect of facing Khan if he was watching last night, and he may just look at the Englishman with dollar signs in his eyes.

So, supposing Mayweather’s promise to bow out after one final fight in September is true, a clash with Khan could be good for both parties. Promoter Dave Coldwell suggested the Englishman could turn the Mayweather drama up a few notches after Pacquiao left us all wanting more:

But is Khan really good enough to end the winning streak of arguably the greatest boxer of all time?

There’s no reason why not.

He’s a lot fitter and more agile than any fighter that’s challenged Mayweather in recent times, and while punch resistance has always been his weakness, Khan showed against Algieri that his apparent glass jaw is now double-glazed.

 


If he gets in the ring with Money, it’ll undoubtedly come down to a battle of wits, but the Englishman’s intelligence, combined with scintillating hand speed, would give him every chance.

Would Mayweather allow his curtain call to be against someone with the potential to dethrone him, though? Time will tell. In the meantime, Las Vegas, prepare yourself.
