Manny Pacquiao versus Amir Khan will not be fighting
The clash was announced last week by Pacquiao and Khan with both men providing a date for the welterweight super-fight, April 23.
But Arum has insisted that deal is dead and says he told Pacquiao and his adviser Michael Koncz the Khan fight was a long shot.
‘Michael is on his way back to meet with Manny but it’s kaddish for the UAE deal. It’s dead,’ Arum said.
‘I’m talking to him about another proposal for another fight, not Khan.
‘Khan won’t be Manny’s next opponent.’
Pacquiao chose Khan after running a Twitter poll where thousands of voters chose the Brit from four candidates.
Khan was the clear winner, prompting Pacquiao to begin talks over a fight.
