Big punching Siberian Rocky, Ruslan Provodnikov (24-4, 17ko), has confirmed that his team are talking to Amir Khan’s about a potential clash for later this year.
Rumours about a mooted bout surfaced early last week, with Khan initially appearing to scotch the speculation, although on Boxnation’s UK broadcast of Mayweather/Berto, he acknowledged the possibility, all the while continuing to insist it is Manny Pacquiao he now really wants to fight – seemingly for the size of the pay-day involved, given that his “Money Shot” at the newly retired Floyd Mayweather is dead in the water.
