    I only see two reasons:

    1; Warren just wants to make some real $$$$ while he still has khan. Not giving a damn no more about khan so he feeds him to pacman.

    2; Putting Khans name out there with pac would have the world thinking wtf (w=who) is khan? Just some publicity for khan but not really going to fight pac.

    People are forgetting Amir Khan is a great tactician, and Pacquaio doesn't have the strongest chin ever either. Khan is the biggest puncher Pacquaio will have ever faced, and if Pacquaio's footwork slows down even more going to 135 who knows what will happen.

    Khan is not ready for Pac. He will get smashed. Khan is a very good up and coming fighter, but he is not ready for elite competition. Given him at least 5 more fights and then he can take on some of the top lightweights. Why the rush on this guy? Why no rush for guys like Joe, Ricky and Naseem? I guess I'd rather see Khan step up to the plate before he has 35 fights, but this is a little too soon.

    But look how he did against Kindelan? Look how much quicker he got Graham out of there than Katsidis. I think he already on the championship level of boxing. THis fight will make him a ton of money, and what if he wins? I am a huge Pacquaio fan, but I realize that Khan is one of the few guys I would give a chance of beating him. Katsidis is way too slow, and doesn't have a good enough chin to fight Pacquaio with his lack of defense. Casamayor doens't have enough fire anymore to push the pace to stick in there with Pacquaio and that fight I don't think would ever happen.

    Oh please Kindelan is a good Amateur boxer thats it, and Earl was damaged goods when Khan fought him. You honestly think Khan has a chance in this fight ?? i see Khan knocked senseless by feather fisted Willie Limond, just imagine what Pacquiao will do to Khan if he lands flush, which he will sooner or later. Khan is good but he has some defensive flaws i've noticed when he throws a punch and backs up he leaves himself open, and Pacquiao will for certain take advantage of that. I can't believe your actually giving Khan more of a chance against Pacquiao than Casamayor. Why don't you actually study Khan's opposition, except for Earl who is decent at best, and a blown up shot Super Featherweight Gairy St Clair, who has Khan beaten to show his world class ?? even in his last fight he was getting caught with right hands over the top by an unknown fighter.

    Maybe in a couple of years when Manny has worn down a bit. I think Khan need two or three more fights before he even fights one of the current lightweight champions. I also read somewhere that Khan's father is keen for a new contract with Warren.
