And here I was hoping the times when Khan's annoying ass gets more relevancy than he deserves are over

manny hasn't KO'd anyone in damn near a decade, khan has a chance to win just based on the styles, and he can hurt manny, manny hasn't faced anyone who was a threat with punching power in a long time

Ban bet??

Ban bet for what? I didn't say who would win, I just said Khan can win, which he can

this is a 50/50 fight between two washed up guys nobody asked for

I do have a ban bet going, I bet Spence washes Kell Brook like I said years a go
but everybody is silent

why would I beat on a shyt fight with two guys who can get put to sleep

I know manny stanning is a bad business now, but have some dignity, how can have the nerve to even poke your chest out because he's fighting mr. glass lmao, and it's a good chance he can lose the fight

back to your basement

I've never thought that much of Khan and have felt his actual technical skill level is poor for a top caliber fighter. Against a certain type of opponent, he could look good, but it didn't take much to get him off his gameplan and he'd resort to his instincts.

I thought he possibly could have been fixing a lot of these flaws with Virgil Hunter when he fought Luis Collazo, as he looked less sloppy and more "professional" and moved with more purpose, but the Chris Algeri fight showed once again that it doesn't take much to get him off his gameplan.

Pacquiao is almost 40 years old with a shytload of wear-and-tear on his body. I still pick him to win because of Khan's numerous flaws and chin but I actually wouldn't be shocked if Khan won as I would have been a few years ago. When fighters become "shot, they can't pull the trigger anymore. It could be a case where Khan stays on the outside, does those flurries, and Pacquiao is either unable to pull the trigger, or becomes frustrated/disinterested and unwilling to take the risks.

Still, I'm picking Pacquiao to get his first stoppage since 2009.
