the worrying thing about that is that khan has boxed as long as he has, don't you think? people are calling for Roy and Enzo to retire off less sparkings

p.s. I know Enzo has retired now




Virgil Hunter says the total opposite, just makes the fight more curious to me

"With Amir’s familiarity of Pacquiao and this stage of their careers, I’m sure that he’s confident that he can give a good account of himself in that contest. I’ve seen the tapes of him and Pacquiao sparring and without going into it, it was nothing like Freddie said it was, for sure," Hunter told On The Ropes Boxing Radio.
"Amir would be a tough out for Manny Pacquiao and with his energy level and length and speed, if he brought all these things together with great focus, there’s a danger that Pacquiao could lose, and lose convincingly. From a fighter stand point, I think that’s the reason why. From a political standpoint, I have no idea [why no head has been reached as of yet]. Hopefully he gets it."
