Only way this happens is if Pacquiao has agreed to take a dive in order to propel his stablemate back into the big time.
Otherwise its suicide for Khan.

I don't believe this will happen

but if amir leaves roach they are no longer stable mates.
It will sell and has a bit of a back story
and its a no lose for both fighters
pacman can't lose (literally)
And amir will see this as too big an opportunity to let it pass, it'll be a good earnrr
He has great self belief and will think he's seen enough of pacquiao to suss him out (probably naively not reasising that roach and pacquiao know him inside out)

I simply do not believe this at all.

If, in the unlikely event that it is true, Khan might as well be signing a suicide note, as his chances would (to paraphrase Don King), somewhere between slim & none & slim's out of town!

no chance... although both are coming off loses... nah, no chance.

More chance of being invited for dinner by Elvis Pressley.

More chance of Martin Murray getting a rematch with Sturm

Khan would have to split from Golden Boy too. DLHs face during Khans interview says he was very disappointed with Khan. Who knows? Pacman KOs him anytime after the 2nd round if it happens IMO.

Why not? Both coming off a loss and a great money earner.

Manny Pac is not coming off a loss. No way does the Tim Bradley fight qualify as any kind of defeat.

Try telling Mayweather that.

It goes without saying that Khan would get slaughtered if this happened but he is so delusional and his ego is so big that he probably genuinely thinks he would win the fight.

I haven't liked Khan's reaction to last weeks defeat. He seems to be trying to convince himself that the loss was merely down to a mistake he made and that had he not made that mistake he would have won the fight when he should be looking to make root and branch reforms to his defence and whole fighting style, not to mention the people he surrounds himself with. He needs to tell all the "yes men" to piss off and yes that includes family members and friends if he wants to progress. I'd argue he needs a new trainer, one more orientated towards defensive skills like Manny Steward and who can spend proper time with him.
