might have/ might has

Hi! I'm aware of the modal character of 'might' verb and that it should be used with 'have' instead of 'has'. But shouldn't I place the 'has' form when I use 'have' in 'possess' meaning? For example: I want to be his friend in spite of all the downsides he might has (might have?).
Thank you in advance,
Sincerely,
Dmitry

Never, never, never! Modal verbs can only be followed by the bare infinitive of the next verb (i.e., the base form).

Read this thread from the top. It is a rule of English.
