Manny Pacquiao is ‘full of it and wasting time’

Amir Khan has informed World Boxing News that he’s frustrated with Manny Pacquiao after a brief meeting in London this weekend.

Speaking to WBN after walking through the streets of England’s capital ahead of the Anthony Joshua vs. Daniel Dubois fight at Wembley, the Bolton man is not buying what Pacquiao is selling anymore.

In a previous article with WBN, Khan admitted he believes the Filipino superstar is genuinely interested in fighting him. However, Khan isn’t happy with the lack of action. Pacquiao has yet to make an offer despite MP Promotions President Sean Gibbons telling WBN he wanted to open talks with Khan about a fight in the UK this December.

As time ticks away for both former world champions, Khan, 37, wants the 45-year-old boxing legend to get serious and make it official.

“You know what, we’ve been in this position so many times, and I think Manny talks too much,” Khan exclusively told World Boxing News. “He talks but doesn’t deliver.

“Now, anything I’ve ever said in my life, I’ve always delivered. Whether it was Manny Pacquiao and saying, ‘I’m ready to fight you,’ or whether it was the [Floyd] Mayweather fight, which I signed a contract for, and he didn’t sign his side of the contract and pulled out. He fought [Marcos] Maidana instead, a guy who I beat. Then, obviously, I went and fought Canelo [in 2016]. I mean, I’ve never been afraid, and I’ve always fought the biggest names out there. I’ve never been afraid of anything or anyone.
