    Comments Thread For: Khan Plans To Spend More Time With Hunter, Fix Mistakes

    Amir Khan admits he will have to spend more time with his trainer Virgil Hunter in San Francisco after being floored on his way to a 12-round points win over Julio Diaz. The Briton quickly bounced up off the canvas in the fourth round but after a count there were more worrying moments before he looked on the verge of being stopped in the 11th round.

    However, the former light-welterweight world champion prevailed and won a unanimous -- but narrow -- points decision by scores of 114-113, 115-113 and 115-112 in an enthralling encounter at the Sheffield Arena on Saturday.

    this guy is really starting to peais me off. Before the fight he claimed we would see a better improved khan. now after the fight he is talking about still learning and needing to iron out mistakes.

      I have not heard Khan say this before. Seems legit.

          I'm beginning to wonder whether Khan will ever recover from the Garcia KO.

            He's not capable of change.

            He has a very low IQ and always allows himself to get dragged into a battle, in which he always gets rocked or dropped...or both.

            You need the discipline and IQ to change, he doesn't have them.

              His offensive style would have been fine - if he had power and ring smarts
              His 'new' smart boxing style would be fine- if he had defence and power

              Khan himself really needs to just understand himself as a fighter and when he has an opponent train towards a game plan with Virgil - so he can enter the ring and just flow and do the job - no hesitation.

              Khan knows he had many weaknesses in that fight and hopefully will address them. Hesitation is not good. It must have worried him to **** when he got knocked down.

              Virgil just needs to take it slowly. When you're in a fight situation there is only so much you can take in.


              Julio fought a good fight though good job by him, showed why he was an ex-champ. When he hurt Khan though he should have stopped trying to step back and counter and instead go all out Peterson style. Think he expected Khan to fire back carelessly.

                It's like Groundhog Day with Khan.

                  Virgil pointed out and Khan commented on, his lack of balance when leaving Roach.

                  If anything it seemed worse in this fight.

                  He went down once but he nearly slipped a couple of other times and just looks wobbly even when not hurt.

                  Sadly I don't think you can change this leopard's spot's too much.

                    Khan has no power what so ever so no one hesitates countering his combinations. If he doesn't learn the definition of defense, he will be required by the age of 28.

                    Besides Judah, every boxer in the 140 tourney will put this dude on his azz.
