Pacquiao next. Hilarious! The only guy who can go from Canelo – two unknowns – Crawford – unknown – Pacquiao. Ethnic support is a powerful thing!
He’ll never get the Mayweather or Paq fight. Those pretty much own his career. Kept him waiting on the shelf
Khan wants to lure Pacquiao to Saudi Arabia because the money is good there, and not as much taxes from the purse. Khan was trying to set something up in the middle east with Pacquiao before they made Horn vs Pacquiao. All I can say for Pacquiao, is stop saying, or stop having your trainer say, guys like Thurman are not “He’s not a world class fighter.” If Thurman is not a world class fighter, why would you fight Khan after, and a lot of Pacquiao’s opponents have since 2010 have not been world class if Thurman is not world class. Guys like “Clottey, Margarito, 40 year old Mosley, Rios, Algieri, Jessie Vargas, and Broner.” Those are world class? Matthysse had world class power, and what about Tim Bradley? How many times did Pacquiao have to fight him to prove something? 36 rounds. And Bradley wasn’t a threat to KO Pacquiao. And then you leave toprank before fighting world class Terence Crawford. Stop talking about world class team Pacquiao. Beat Thurman, and then talk
Khan is washed up and only fighting for money. He quit in humiliating fashion in the Crawford fight.
