Pacquiao vs. Khan bout shelved as talks break down: Arum (Reuters)

(Reuters) - Eight-division world champion Manny Pacquiao's proposed fight against Britain's former world light-welterweight champion Amir Khan has been postponed, according to the Filipino's promoter, Bob Arum. The 38-year-old Pacquiao and Khan, who won a silver medal at the 2004 Athens Olympics, tentatively agreed to an April fight in the United Arab Emirates before negotiating a change of date to May 20. Arum, however, told the Los Angeles Times that the $38 million offer for the bout had failed to materialize and that the duo could not face each other until the second half of 2017, under revised terms.
