      Amir Khan, 37, back in training and reveals which mega-fight will bring him out of retirement with dig at Jake Paul

      by

      AMIR KHAN has revealed he is back training again with a big fight on his mind – but it will NOT be against Jake Paul. The British boxing icon retired in 2022 following his bitter loss to arch rival Kell Brook after decades of feuding.

      But the former world champion has teased a comeback ever since and is even now keeping fit in the gym.
      Talks in 2023 emerged for Khan to face old sparring partner and friend Manny Pacquiao in Saudi Arabia.
      And Khan admitted that is the fight that would bring him back to the ring one more time.
      He told SunSport in Riyadh: “I mean I am training a little bit here and there but the thing is the only man that can make that fight happen is Turki Alalshikh.

      “I think Turki Alalshikh can make that fight happen between me and Manny Pacquiao.
      “Yeah, that’s a fight that would definitely lift me up, for sure.”
      Pacquiao, 45, hung up his gloves a year before Khan in 2021 following defeat to Yordenis Ugas, 37.
      But after a failed presidential election in the Philippines, the eight-division champ opened the door to a boxing comeback.

      He even faced Korean martial arts YouTuber DK Yoo in December 2022 and recently announced he was out of retirement.
      Pacquiao and Khan were pictured together in October in Saudi before Tyson Fury’s win over Francis Ngannou, fuelling speculation of a bout.
      Khan also called out YouTuber-turned boxer Jake Paul, who is in 8-1 in the ring following just one loss to Tommy Fury, 24.
      But the 2004 Olympic silver medalist jibed that not even a huge payday could actually motivate him to fight Paul, 27.
      Khan, 37, said: “Jake Paul, I don’t think I can lift myself up for that fight. But, like a Manny Pacquiao fight you have to be on your A-game.”

      by

      A YOUTUBER has given an insight into what it’s like to play with some of the biggest legends in the game.Jamm, who is a member of the Shoot For Love YouTube channel was playing in the Match for Hope charity game in Qatar, which featured the likes of IShowSpeed.

      Jamm was playing for Team Aboflah, which was managed by Antonio Conte and included a bunch of influencers alongside the likes of Claude Makelele, Didier Drogba and Kaka.
      The opposing side, led by UK influencer Chunkz, was managed by Arsene Wenger and included the likes of Eden Hazard, Roberto Carlos and David Villa.
      Jamm did not start the match, but his bodycam footage showed fans exactly what it’s like to play with the legends after he came on.
      His video showed him being called across by Conte to be substituted onto the field, with the former Spurs manager appearing to be a bit unsure of what Jamm’s name was.

      Jamm was given the massive task of marking the recently retired Eden Hazard – who easily skipped around him to create a goal.
      Jamm’s footage also showed a smiling Didier Drogba walking past him to take a corner.
      Despite being skinned by Hazard, Jamm had a decent game while playing at left-back, putting in plenty of blocks.
      He even lost his glasses at one point when clearing the ball with a defensive header.

      A starstruck Jamm replied: “What an honour!”
      Jamm ended up on the losing side in the end, with Team Chunkz taking the win by seven goals to five.
      The four minute video ended with Chunkz and co lifting the trophy specially made for the match.
      The friendly was not without incident however, with American internet personality IShowSpeed launching into a horror tackle on Kaka.
      The YouTuber was shown a yellow for a tackle, but many argued it was a red – it certainly would have been if it was made in the Premier League.
      But for the purposes of the friendly, the ref opted to keep things level at 11v11 – and luckily Kaka was not injured. More

      The game was set up for charity and featured football legends such as Drogba, 45, as well as David Villa, Eden Hazard and Roberto Carlos.
      After the game, the former Chelsea striker was approached by IShowSpeed, real name Darren Watkins Jr, who had one question for him.
      Bafflingly, the confused social media star asked if Drogba was Paul Pogba’s father.
      The Ivorian was taken back by the query as he replied with a brilliant response.

      A month before the grudge match, Paul signed a deal with the Professional Fighters League to debut in MMA.
      And Paul’s business partner teased Fury with an offer to rematch the American in boxing and then complete their trilogy in MMA.
      Now, PFL founder Donn Davis has exclusively confirmed to SunSport that a deal is in fact on the table and worth £15.7m.
      Davis said: “Yes, what Jake and Nakisa said is accurate.
      READ MORE IN MMA
      “Tommy doing a back-to-back boxing and MMA – hardwired together where Tommy couldn’t back out of one or the other – is on the table.
      “The rumoured offers of $15-20m to Tommy – which is three times what he could earn for many other of his options – is accurate.
      “Is that the best option for Jake? I’ll leave that to Jake and Nakisa. They’re the best at picking opponents and managing that.
      “But that is accurate and that is a possibility.”

      The offer would be spanned across the two sports, starting with a boxing rematch and culminating in what would be the rivals’ MMA debuts.
      Davis added: “That is a two-fight deal and the two fights are $15-20million together for Tommy Fury.”

      Fury, 24, went on to defeat Paul’s arch rival KSI, 30, last October but has not returned since having had hand surgery.
      Meanwhile Paul, 27, has bounced back with two wins since suffering defeat for the first time.
      He beat ex-UFC star Nate Diaz, 38, on points then knocked out pro boxer Andre August, 35, in round one in December.
      Paul returns on March 2 on the undercard of Amanda Serrano’s Puerto Rico homecoming against 17-2 Ryan Bourland, 35.
      And the social media sensation has lofty ambitions of winning world titles and plans to continue facing seasoned boxers to build his way up.
      But talks for his MMA debut continue behind the scenes, with Fury and Diaz frontrunners for the fight as Paul ramps up his preparations.
      Davis said: “If Nate and Jake want to get together in MMA, that remains on the table.
      “Jake is training now down in the Dominican, he’s four months into it.
