Khan also said he saw some deterioration of Roach due to the trainer’s battle against Parkinson’s disease.
“It’s hard to see him older and getting worse,” Khan said. “I wish him the best. Freddie, with the Parkinson’s disease, he was struggling with instructions and couldn’t move as well.”

I just spoke to Roach. He said, "If that was true, why would he say to me, 'Fire Manny Pacquiao and Chavez Jr.' And they would keep me?"

More Roach: "Parkinson's had nothing to do with it. They know that. And I wish them the best of luck."
Probably... probably.. probably.... not an expert. Exactly as I pointed out, you don't know what you are talking about.
As for Khan, my dislike has nothing to do with his ethnicity and everything to do with the fact that he is an ignorant and arrogant assh0le (just like you).
You on the other hand, only like him because he is British. If he was French you would trash him worse than I do. I judge him on his words and actions. You excuse his words and actions just because he lives in the same country as you.
Why do you excuse legendary bum beater and ducker, Zsolt Erdei? Oh yeah because he's Hungarian :lol1:
I don't need to excuse Khan for anything. He has fought and/or offered fights to the best in his division.
1) Not so much an issue with Ward. Ward will probably be training for fights at different times - Ward probably wont have a fight lined up until after Khan's fight in December. Ward is always in the same place. Khan wont have to go to the Phillipines or wherever. He'll get more attention from Hunter.
2) No Im not an expert
You don't like Amir Khan because of his ethnicity. You openly admit that. So I guess Im just as stupid for responding to you.

I think Khan's brain cells are deteriorating much faster than Freddie’s Parkinson’s disease, just look at the comments he's making the past few days.
Hope he gets KO'ed again and it might help him slow down his brain cells from disappearing all together.
1) Khan claims he needs 100% attention... so he goes to the guy who gives 100% attention to Andre Ward who is like a son to him... numbers don't add up. Somehow Khan is coming up well short of 100% attention either way.
2) Physically unable to cope - Well only in the opinion of Amir Khan. Doesn't seem to be an issue for any of his other fighters. You're making this assumption as if you are some kind of expert who watches Roach on a day to day basis. In reality your lips are attached to Amir's asscrack and you believe everything he says to be gospel truth regardless of how stupid, useless or pointless his comments are (they're usually all 3).
Amir Khan is, and always will be, a loudmouth cunt who thinks he is special. Just like Audley Harrison, no matter how many times he gets knocked out and looks like a silly fruitcake prancing around the ring on jello legs, Khan will go on thinking he is the best and deserves better.
Freddie Roach deserves better fighters than Amir Khan, it's not the other way around.

2) No Im not an expert but neither are you and Khan's the one who has trained with him on a daily basis. I don't need to believe Khan to know that Roach has a debilitating disease that will make it difficult for him to train so many fighters as he gets older. Its just simple logic.
You don't like Amir Khan because of his ethnicity. You openly admit that. So I guess Im just as stupid for responding to you.
I always console myself reading your angry, butthurt posts about Khan by the fact that you look like someone from Right Said Fred. And you're from Hungary and hero worship Zsolt Erdei - the most epic bum beater and ducker of the modern era. It really does give me a chuckle when you criticise other fighters.
"Laundry list" of basically 2 reasons which are that he doesn't get enough time from Roach and that Roach is physically unable to cope with so many fighters now due to his illness. Both legitimate points but people like to take hidden messages from what Khan says.
I remember Hatton left his old trainer Billy Graham because he was physically breaking down and most people didn't bat an eyelid but because Roach has Parkinsons, its like some elephant in the room that no one can talk about.

Amir Khan @AmirKingKhan
Hey guys I didn't say @FreddieRoach is a bad trainer, he's 1 of the best out there and took my career to a high winning 2 world titles.
Amir Khan @AmirKingKhan
I blame myself for the losses in my career. Not blaming @FreddieRoach or anyone. I just needed a change.

And like I said, when you're asked the question just say something like "I appreciate Freddie's service but felt it was time to move on" and leave it at that. Instead when he's asked the question he feels like he has to offer a laundry list of "reasons why Freddie Roach sucks as a trainer", basically.

Tbf to him it's his money so he can fire and hire who ever the fuk he wants. Doesn't mean it's going to make him any better in the long run. I personally think most of the trash talk on Roach is coming from his management team.
Honestly I feel parkinsons has slowed Roach down as a trainer drastically and to give his all to 3 world class fighters is too much for Freddie. By saying this I agree with Amir's decision and his reasoning. This still doesn't change the fact that Amir's chin is suspect to say the least.
his FTs are damaged goods...he's a lil rusty but he'll come around..dude hasnt played a real game in half a year
Yea, watching him try to dunk last night was sad, for the Lakers I hope you are right because Dwight will need to be at his absolute best to cover for Nash it was like the Lakers were defending with 3.5 guys.
On the plus side Bynum looks just as much like damaged goods, and getting rid of his attitude can only be a plus, even if Dwight is also a diva Bynum is in a league of his own there.
I wouldn't get too worked up about this. Someday the arrogant Khan will get his.
Judging by the way his brain reacts to punches now I would say he is only 1 or 2 more awesomely embarrassing knockouts away from ending up a stuttering fool.
I wonder if Khan will finally shut up when he can barely speak and shakes worse than Roach. Most likely he will just double down on twitter. k-k-k-king k-k-k-khan will be his handle.
That is why Khan gets so much hate. He is an adult and should be responsible how he says things.
Simply saying that thing were not working out with Roach is enough cause it is understood that Roach has a lot of boxers to train.
A man with that advanced stage of Parkinson doing what he does should always be viewed as a positive thing.
nice...can we get PAC-Khan now???
I would only accept that as a tune up~ not going to lie though it would be fun to watch Manny savage Khan and knock him the **** out
Also the Lakers looked like ass last night, I think Dwight might be damaged goods.
Because someone asked him a question :dunce:

The real problem here is that Khan for some reason feels the need to keep dragging Roach through the mud. It's over, when questioned about why you left Roach just say you appreciate him and that you've moved on. I don't understand why he keeps tossing out all of these justifications for switching trainers other than to make Roach look bad. It's very unprofessional and classless.
