Comments Thread For: Roach: Team Khan Asked Me To Dump Pacquiao, Chavez

[LAPete]

Ok so now that its official Kahn can stop blaming others for his losses.

What a joke

Well at least Team Khan had the balls to recognize Roach's experience as a trainer. You can't blame your losses on the trainer specially if his telling you to do something in a fight and you don't do it.

the blame game

khan can't get over the fact he lost his last two bouts and blames freddie roach for it which is absolute rubbish. khan didn't follow roach's game plan and decided to get into a brawl with his opponents pacqiuao style. without an iron chin, adequate head movement and relentless stamina, his demise was inevitable. khan wouldn't have reached the top of his division without roach. i think this bad blood between the two might just eventually lead to a fight between pacquiao & khan in the ring which i would love to see if khan won't shut his mouth about roach's "shortcomings" as a trainer. who does he think he is? khan was a nobody before roach trained him. khan didn't even make a blimp o
n the boxing radar back then.

Team Khan scum bags. They appear to be parasites to me with their noses deep in the trough. Paying for that family entourage must be costing Khan a fortune. This post reminds me of this Youtube clip

I agree that was an absurd demand on Khan's part and trust me I am no fan of Khan but in reality, from a boxing skill perspective, Khan is more talented than Pac and Jr. combined. Up until 1-2 fights ago, Jr. has fought no name bums and Pac's last 5-6 fights have all been either against carefully calculated opponents (wear and tear, weight drained) or he hasn't looked good. As I said Khan's demand was ******ed basically but aside from the chin issues, he is way more talented than Pac and Jr.

Do you honestly believe that?!! WTF, Bradley against Manny connected a total of 19% punch percentage as oppose to Manny's 34%, and Bradley never landed a single solid/meaningful punch against Manny the entire fight.. Bradley was way more accurate with his punches against the likes of Alexander, Casamayor and Peterson, so what does that say against Manny's defense... Yes Manny's defense is not perfect but it is severely underrated as well, while on the other hand, Khan's technic of his defense is totally wrong for him, size wise and chin wise, he should learn how to fight of his jab, he should be fighting boring matches with defense first on his mind, it will be boring for the casual fans but it will land him more winnable fights...

Trainer Freddie Roach advised krikya360.com that he is likely parting ways with former junior welterweight champion Amir Khan. The British star is telling media that he plans to announce his new trainer next week.

and?!?...was he supposed to come at Roach differently?...hell NO!!!...if I was AK I would've said the same thing....I know it sounds crazy but you can't knock the dude for looking out for SELF atm...his career is in a mini-crisis and this was something that was called for...again, I applaud AK...good move my dude

That's not the real reason Khan fired you Roach. He fired you because he finally realized that you suck as a training.

[chardrnm]

Khan doesn't need a new trainer instead he needs a new chin and that's the truth.
