Amir Khan Drops Freddie!

right. now its freddie's fault. http://i50.tinypic.com/b4z2hv.gif :lol1:

Mr.Khan should consider Ballet, dude has no grace,poise or any flexibility. His naturaly fast but lacks that slickness that lots of boxers have!

My guess is Khan already has his new trainer but is milking the media about dumping Roach and when that wears thin he will make a big deal about the new coach. It will be interesting to see if Roach spillls the beans on what he really thinks of Khan. It seems Khan is quite happy to say his losses are down to Roach but poor Fredie has to remain silent. There's nothing wrong with splitting with Roach. The only thing I disagree with is his making a spectacle of it. If you're going to remove yourself from Freddie Roach don't continue to hint at it and not officially do it. Even if he doesn't leave Roach, hypothetically, everything he's saying through the media will only strain their relationship. If you feel like you need to explain yourself through the media, than do so, once, not every week. Freddie to his credit has remained pretty mature about it all, and has been rather quiet. Although, I've long thought Freddie hasn't really been the talker he made himself out to be since 2010. I believe I recall Emmanuel Steward making a comment along the lines of, 'Freddie should just focus on training his fighters as opposed to talking trash,' and since then, perhaps coincidentally, Freddie has talked a lot less about other fighters and camps - it was sound advice that, again, he may have heeded (or he just grew out of it...for the most part)

I am suprised Freddy didn't drop Amir. But I suppose trainers don't do that, they just hope they get dropped by the fighter so they can move on. I really doubt Roach could have done much for Khan at this point and he probably realized it after the ko loss.

Khan has 2 years max before his chin retires him for good. lolllllllllllllllllll

Amir "I'm the current best superstar in Boxing." Khan.

He didn't just say he'll be much more explosive? :no: lol, anyone who follows amir knows he has fantasies of delusion.

Freddie's credibility is really on the line now with JCC jr. Reason #379 why Chavez has to be declared the winner on saturday But if JCC wins big and Manny puts on a show in December then Amir just looks like a whining fool

His new strategy will consist of "Avoid Matthysse pretend he doesnt exist. ". That should do.

Khan is hiring Virgil Hunter as his new trainer. exactly what i've been thinking bro, Andre Wards trainer.

Praise Freddie for his wins, blame him for his losses. Man up and accept you went in guns blazing with no game plan other than to completely disregard Lopez as no threat, whatsoever. Doesn't matter who is your coach, if you don't respect your opponent you can be knocked the **** out. Ask Tyson, and the other 10,000 fighters who have done the same thing.

Khan cant do anything about his chin, but he can mos def improve his defense to limit the amount of punches that get through. He also needs to learn to tuck his chin in, so many basic flaws in Khan, i'm shocked he got this far. A good trainer could turn him into a good fighter, he'll suffer some losses along the way, but at the same time he can have some great fights and win some belts

Richardson is the favourite im hearing, basically a done deal isn't it? I quite like the idea of Amir hooking up with Adam Booth myself

I personally dont think any trainer in the world can make khan what he thinks he is. khan is a B level fighter with fast hands, he never has been and never will be at the elite level, and no trainer can change that. the more arrogant khan gets, the more vulnerable he becomes as a fighter. anytime he fights, they are gonna be comin for him hard, cause they know he has poor defense and a bad chin. a new trainer may help with his defense, but they will never take him above the level he is at. he just doesnt have it, and its too bad he doesnt know this... Yeah. His most notable wins are Kotelnik, Malignaggi, Maidana, and Judah. Not that that's a bad list at all, but it in no way puts him up there with Mayweather or Pacquiao. I also had him beating Peterson, but either way his lack of ability to adjust was brought to light in that bout. He moves well in the ring, has fast hands, and some of the intangibles that a world champion needs, but he also has a lot of holes in his game. I am not and have never been a big Khan fan, but I believe he could be champion at 140 again if he got down off his high horse and took it back to the drawing board. He can start by avenging his loss to Prescott. If he can't defeat Prescott at this stage, he may as well retire.

Khan ain't gonna change sh*t if he doesn't hold himself accountable. With that said I think Naz would be good with him

The right move. Bringing in Nazim while still working with Freddie would be counter-productive. Khan should keep David Haye's nutritionist around, he had Amir in great shape for the Garcia fight and even told him not to bang with Garcia. Khan with Nazim would be really interesting. Hopefully he can salvage his career.
