      One thing about Khan is he is eager to learn. In all honesty I realised it's not him I dislike, it his entourage and promoters.

      He isn't actually a bad person and does his fair share for the community.

        The kid has talent and in no way deserves the hate that's been poured down on him. I mean, people in here are supposed to be boxing FANS. What can't be appreciated about some of the skills Khan possesses?

        So what if he got KTFO by Prescott? There isn't a fighter in that weight division that wouldn't have hit the canvas with some of those shots.

        Khan's problem is less to do with his chin than some of the management choices his team have made. To put an inexperienced fighter who at the time had no defence whatsoever in against a murderous puncher like Prescott was criminal. What kind of trainer does that to his own fighter?

        If Roach gets his defence sorted I think he's got a bright future indeed. If he gets KOd again - so be it. Far too much is made of keeping an '0' on your record these days. Christ - he even put up and challenged Prescott to a re-match! Considering the beatdown he received in that fight it took balls to say that.

        Leave the kid alone. And to those Hattonites who booed Khan in the press conference - they showed themselves up as the prejudiced ****s that they are.

                Without a doubt, I bet he was laughing so hard the hole in his chest started leaking.

                  I like roach, i doubted him before the fight but he really is a class coach who loves his fighters and loves boxing, best trainer in the world atm? i think so.

                  i would have liked to have seen ricky go to roach after graham but i wasn't saying that at the time so meh.

                    Khan shoudnt be rushed, give him 2 years under Roach then see what hes got, the problem with british media is they like to give alot of praise and then prey for a persons downfall.
