    My friend watched Amir Khan train + spar yesterday...

    A buddy of mine from my gym is in California right now and has been training at the Wild Card.

    Yesterday he called me and told me he watched Barnabe Concepcion, Alfredo Angulo, and Amir Khan all spar (all sparred different people).

    He told me Khan looked amazing. First he said he was shocked at how small Khan was, that he was probably a little smaller than him (he's a 141 pounder). But he told me Khan did some training and then sparred 10 rounds against 3 different people. He told me he's never seen talent like that in person and it was amazing. He said he was ridiculously fast, but the most impressive thing to him was how vicious he was with his punches. Every time someone would throw a punch at him he would counter with like 6 punch combinations.

    Found it interesting to hear about, figured I would share it with yall. But apparently Khan is looking really sharp.

            Amir has the talent. I like him as a boxer, but I hope his chin doesnt get in the way.

              Yea man, he told me every time someone would step in and throw at em Khan would block or slip and immediately come back with nice combinations, usually like 6,7,8 punches.

                Khan has world class talent, you can't deny that. I just hope he somehow improves his chin.

                  Angulo is training in wild card now??

                  With roach on his side Khan can go places. I can't wait till he batters paulie and make him look like the bum that he is.
