Amir Khan believes that WBO boxer champion Manny Pacquiao
(56-5-2, thirty eight KOs) has slipped a handful of notches at age thirty five,
and he feels that he might have issues in his next fight on Nov twenty second
against unvanquished Chris Algieri (20-0, eight KOs) in possession, China.
Khan thinks Pacquiao’s performances in his last four
fights are but spectacular, and whereas he’s won his last 2 fights against Tim
Bradley and Brandon Rios, he felt that Pacquiao did not impress in either of
these bouts.

Khan thinks Pacquiao’s issues derive from the mixture of
his advanced age and his several ring wars. The 2 of them have done variety on
Pacquiao to the purpose wherever he’ attending to struggle every week from
currently against the younger Algieri.
“Pacquiao’s previous few performances haven't been the
most effective,” Khan aforesaid via ESPN.co.uk. “He has been caught a little
and it would be robust for him this next one. The Tim Bradley and Juan Manuel
Marquez fights took lots out of him. He’s obtaining older – he’s thirty five. I
feel it'll go the space, however Algieri may surprise some folks together with
his performance.”
Some boxing fans could assume that Khan is taking an
effort at Pacquiao in an exceedingly selfish manner, however I don’t believe
that’s what Khan is doing here. He appears to be line of work it like he sees
it in noting the apparent regarding Pacquiao not having looked smart in his
last four fights.
The Pacquiao that knocked out Ricky Hatton and Miguel
Cotto isn't any longer around. Pacquiao has modified dramatically since those
fights, and he’s currently slower, older, and fewer powerful wanting. Khan
believes that there’s been some deterioration in Pacquiao’s game, and he might
okay be correct in this assumption. The knockouts have utterly dried up and he
not appearance smart even once facing guys that square measure created to order
for him like Rios.
“The mercilessness, power and explosiveness square
measure all gone with Pacquiao and he’s not like he wont to be,” Khan
aforesaid.
It’s terribly true that the explosiveness that Pacquiao
once had is currently nearly completely gone. Pacquiao’s trainer Freddie Roach
believes that he will bring it back by having him train onerous, however that
appears to be a lot of illusion than reality. Roach can seemingly still believe
that the fountain of youth is simply round the corner for Pacquiao till the day
he retires.
