Khan confirmed his next fight will be in May in Vegas. God I hope he means on an undercard. Talks about how he'll beat Floyd:


“I am very confident that I can give him some real trouble. He defends well, but he has never defended against someone as fast as me. My hand speed and power will beat him.”

Khan would consider taking on former sparring partner Pacquiao after beating Mayweather, which some fans would argue is a more exciting fight on paper.

“Manny is a great fighter, he is a good friend, you never know, I never say no to anyone,” Khan said. “If it’s possible, I will fight Manny.

Roger Mayweather: "Pacquiao Needs To KO Bradley In Rematch To Qualify For Mayweather"
Article from here...

By Alex Groberman, Tue, December 03, 2013

Manny Pacquiao says he wants to fight Floyd Mayweather Jr. If that is true, then he theoretically should be willing to meet his arch rival’s terms. Prior to this past week, Mayweather Jr.’s terms were a bit unclear. First he wanted a specific type of extremely rigorous performance-enhancing drug testing. Then he wanted the vast majority of the fight purse. Then he wanted all of the pay-per-view money that would come from a bout versus Pacquiao. And each time, he never quite made it clear what he was willing to budge on, and what was set in stone.

Thankfully, Roger Mayweather has cleared things up. Mayweather Jr.’s uncle spoke with Hustle Boss recently and laid things out in very understandable, very specific terms: Pacquiao needs to prove that he deserves a shot at the pound-for-pound king.

The Mayweather clan seems to acknowledge that Pacquiao defeated Brandon Rios in dominant fashion last week. However, they don’t think Rios was a worthy foe. They think Pacquiao needs a step up in competition before he qualifies to take on the king of the hill.

“He can fight Bradley; that’s a good fight for him,” Roger Mayweather said. “Timothy Bradley is a good fight for him. I think he’s going to give Pacquiao problems anyways. The thing of it is, hey, it’s going to be a good fight. One way or the other it’s still a good fight.

“And people are going to point to that as a thing to fight Floyd,” he continued. “That’s the kind of bout that would bring Pacquiao back. Because Timothy Bradley’s got a good name.”

So fight and beat Bradley – that’s what would earn Pacquiao a shot at Mayweather Jr.? Not exactly.

“Obviously he’d have to stop the guy in order for [people] to say ‘you got a chance with Floyd,’” Roger Mayweather added.

Oh.

So in order to earn a shot at Mayweather Jr., Pacquiao would have to do something he hasn’t done since 2009, and aside from one sucker punch against Victor Ortiz, Mayweather Jr. hasn’t done since 2007.

Well, that makes sense.

Both Bradley and Manny contracts are up at the end of 2014. If Bradley vs. Manny happens the winner can make some big money 2015 with one of the last two fights on Mayweather Showtime contract. If Manny KO's Bradley the hype for the Mayweather will be like 2009 again. If Manny wins and resigns with Top Rank like he did 2012 then he is ducking Mayweather flat out.

He will be fighting Garcia, Khan, Maidana if he beats Broner, or the winner of Devon vs. Porter if its a fight of the year type fight.

The undercard will be dope. GBP does know how to put on a card, but they focus too much on Floyd Mayweather. Its good and all but Floyd don't like coughing up too much money. For sure Danny Garcia will be under vs the winner of Judah vs Malignaggi

On the Floyd Mayweather vs Amir Khan under card: Garcia vs Broner...make it happen. The shit talking father vs the shit talking fighter...Danny Garcia wins. More poised...more big fight experience and Broner might be feeling himself a little to much. Just think when Garcia controls Broner with the jab and Broner has to press the issue...he might get Knocked out...he's NO MATTHYESSE!!!
