Manny Pacquiao faces a make or break fight against Keith Thurman this weekend as he looks to extend his already illustrious career.

The ring legend is fighting on despite being 40 and has already dispatched Adrien Broner this year.

Victory over Thurman could set up a showdown with Amir Khan in Saudi Arabia with a potential fight pencilled in for November 9.

But Thurman has yet to taste defeat as a professional having beaten both Shawn Porter and Danny Garcia in his last three fights.

At 10 years Pacquiao's junior, the American will be confident he can send the Filipino into retirement.

Amir Khan moved a step closer to a clash with Manny Pacquiao by beating Billy Dib in convincing fashion on Friday night.

The British boxer instantly called for a clash with Pacquiao in Saudi Arabia later this year as he eyes a huge shot at the Filipino legend.

But Pacquiao still has to do his bit to set up the clash as he steps back into the ring against Keith Thurman in a battle for the WBA (super) welterweight title in Las Vegas next Saturday (July 20).

Despite Thurman being the much younger fight, Khan reckons former sparring partner Pacquiao, 40, holds the speed and experience to emerge with his 62nd professional win.

Khan told ITV Boxing: "So the Pacquiao-Thurman fight, I think I favour more towards Pacquiao.

"Because Pacquiao has fought better opposition, he's got the speed and the movement.

"He's a southpaw, I don't know how Thurman's going to do against a southpaw.

"Thurman's last fight wasn't the best. I mean he did have a very tough fight against Joselito Lopez and it didn't look the best, he obviously had that shoulder injury and had been out the ring for a long time.

"I favour Pacquaio because he's been more active, and at the same time he's been in with bigger and better opposition.

"I lean more towards Pacquaio, but Thurman's got the power and the strength to hurt Pacquiao so let's see if he can do that.

"I just don't think he'll get to Pacquiao."

Pacquiao feeling young at heart

Manny Pacquiao is ready to roll back the years against Keith Thurman.

He said: :"It's easy for my opponents to talk before the fight, and I'm used to everything they say. But when we get to the ring, it changes, and it will change on July 20.

"I chose Keith Thurman because he's a great fighter, he's undefeated and because we can give a good fight to the fans. I want to make the fans happy on that night and show that I can still go toe-to-toe with any opponent.

"He said he's young, but we'll see who looks young in the ring on July 20. I'm going to let my fists say everything for me.

"We will work hard in training camp like always for this fight. We're not going to take Keith Thurman lightly or underestimate him. He's a world champion. I'm thankful for what he's been saying, because it's giving me motivation to prove that at 40-years-old, I feel 29.

"Keith Thurman is aggressive and throws a lot of punches. I'm hoping on July 20 he will follow through with what he says and fight toe-to-toe with me."
