Amir Khan: Manny Pacquiao Can't Knock Me Down!

[Gandalf]

Actually. Amir didn't do bad at all in this footage...

In fact, he owned Manny in that round.

I hear Buboy Fernandez saying "atras sa lubid".

Sounds to me they were training Manny to exchange while his back against the rope.

But come on now, Pac is hardly going all out is he?

He was training for a particular situation and Khan was trying to apply what was set. Pac would have no agenda to destroy his sparring partner in this particular instance.

You know he could if he wanted to.

No he's not. He was listening and following every specific instructions and executing them right away. Pac would just wing it on his own if it was a real fight.

To Khan's credit Pac probably hasn't slaughtered him in sparring, but I do find it a really strange thing to bring up. Fair enough, maybe what he said about being drained at 135 is true. He is a tall lad after all, but he does seem to be going overboard seeing as his chin at 140 hasn't exactly been checked by anyone.

The Maidana fight is the first genuine challenge to the chin IMO. It should be interesting.

Gotta admit Khan is starting to win me over a bit. The only thing is we all know he has no chin and whe he fights someone who is genuinely elite that is going to show. I think he schools Maidana and Bradley for that matter though!
