Khan open to fighting Pacquiao

According to DAZN and IFLTV, Amir Khan would like to face Manny Pacquaio in a battle of former champions. Khan last fought in 2022, a losing effort vs. Kell Brook. Pacquiao has not fought since losing to Yordenis Ugas in 2021 and although it appears likely his career is over, he continues to be linked to big fights.  “Look, it’s a tough one because you get different things told to you,” said Khan when discussing the fight with IFLTV.  “There is interest, Manny’s team want it, the Saudis want to fight in Abu Dhabi. It would be massive. A fight with Manny would definitely motivate [me]. I think he would be perfect.  We sparred a lot, we know a lot about each other. My last fight against Kell wasn’t the best fight to finish. I feel I’m a lot better than that.”
