Devon Alexander's manager and trainer Kevin Cunningham recently spoke to BoxingScene.com about Amir Khan's decision to bring in Rick Coward to work the mitts in Khan's training camp for his December 7th fight against Alexander.
Khan recently posted the decision on his Twitter account. He said that he is bringing in Coward who is known as "Coach Rick the Mittologist" and according to his Twitter account is a reality tv star.
Khan also tweeted that Coward will do all of the mitt work in this camp while trainer Virgil Hunter coaches from the side.
"Khan continues to disrespect great trainers. He blamed (Freddie) Roach for his loses and now he brings in a Roger Mayweather copy cat trainer to do mitts. So I guess he's saying Virgil Hunter's mitt work isn't good enough," Cunningham told BoxingScene.com.
