POSITIBO ang British boxer na si Amir Khan na makakaharap niya si Pinoy boxing icon Manny Pacquiao para sa ‘big money fight’ bago magretiro ang Pambansang Kamao.
Inihayag ito ng Briton habang nasa AIBA World Boxing Championships sa Doha, Qatar para kompirmahing nagsimula na ang kanyang kampo na kausapin ang eight-division world champion at kinatawan ng Sarangani province.
“I think 75 per cent,” tugon ni Khan sa panayam ng AFP nang tanungin ang tsansa na matuloy ang laban niya kay Pacquiao. “I think this could happen.”
Una rito, sa ‘media roundtable’ na ginanap kalapit sa isa sa world championships boxing rings, sinabi ni Khan na “ginagawa ang lahat” ng kanyang management team ukol sa negosasyon sa nasabing laban kay Pacman.
“If it is going to happen, it’s going to happen,” wika ng kasalukuyang World Boxing Council (WBC) silver welterweight champion.
“Pacquiao is a fight I would like to have because styles makes fights. Me and Pacquiao used to train together as well, spar together.
“We are friends but sometimes, you know, friends have to fight each other.
“I think it can happen. It’s all about just doing the little things, contracts and stuff.
“I have left it to my team, my team are taking care of it, it’s a good fight for me,” aniya.
