Re: Frank Warren and Bob Arum actually talking about Pac-Khan?
I like khan...but the difference between the guys he's been fighting and someone like pac is night and day. Manny would kill this kid. Khan is young and has plenty of time, he should progress slowly. Reminds me of berto in some ways in that i see berto being able to beat some of the better guys in the division, but to go straight to the top at this point is crazy. But like usual it could happen khan could miraculously win and i'll sit here looking like an asshole, who knows i wouldn't go that direction though.

There are ten of thousands of Filipinos in Dubai. Plus, UAE is a very rich country. And,.. is Khan an arab decent?
Re: Frank Warren and Bob Arum actually talking about Pac-Khan?
this is just so people will learn about kahn, this wont happen, warren may be trying to convince arum he wants to do it but just so arum mentions kahn to the american press
just a few weeks ago the plan was to put kahn against the worst champ in the world, gavin rees
since kahns automatic title is gone warren needs another way to get publicity for him, and this is the way

Yes, I suppose if one of the many massive fights linked to Dubai were going to happen this would be a goer.
But it wont happen in Nov 2008.
I'd bet my Saddos existence on it. Fact.

He's a shitty writer and speculates a bit much at times but then again he seems to call upcoming fights earlier then most. He was right about Cotto-Mosley before anybody else, Guzman-Arthur, a few others I can't remember so he's not always a waste of space.
I just think its interesting that they would even be talking about it, I'd be shocked if it happened any time soon. Could be a big money fight in a year and a half, two years.

I'm pretty sure it was him that first announced how everything was set in place for the Oscar-Floyd rematch too, back before Floyd-Hatton (he regarded Hatton as a gimme cause they wouldn't risk anything scuppering the rematch.. sorta was right).
He was working as Kessler's pressman in the run up to the Calzaghe fight, constantly spoke a lot of crap about Calzgahe, which is to be expected, obviously, but was also quite jarring.
So, he talks a lot of shite when I don't agree with him.. but apart from that I guess he knows the score

I have to agree with the Butcher. There's no way Khan get's in with Manny. There's no way he even gets in with the guy that beat Thaxton!!!It's just to get Khan's name out there.
