Trainer Freddie Roach made a recent appearance on BoxingScene.com's official audio show, Leave It In The Ring, and discussed his junior welterweight champion, Amir Khan, and their upcoming ring return on December 11. The frontrunner to face Khan is WBA/WBO lightweight champion Juan Manuel Marquez.

And yesterday, Amir didn't even mention Timmy or Devon.

Talk is cheap Freddie. You can talk all the **** you want. Fact is, your boy hasn't fought the top guys.

Yes people can talk Khan hasn't faced Devon, Tim, Marcos, Victor yet, but I will tell you now, when he does, he will make all of them work their asses off.

They all have flaws.

Khan has a suspect chin. IMO Kotelnik isn;t a soft, soft puncher and didn;t hurt Khan that much.

Bradley hasn't got huge pop although he is my favourite at 140 as the best. He works like a beast in training, gotta respect him.

Devon can clearly be thrown off his gameplan. Needs to get that clear head because he's very young.

Victor has lack of heart when hurt. This is the hurt game, take it when you can give it or you cry like a *****.

Maidana will get stopped by Devon and Khan IMO. Wide UD with Bradley.
I dunno why people think he's the real deal. He is a KO puncher, but he also faced some bums and been dropped plenty. Heck Kotelnik blocked a lot of his punches and outboxed him.

Marquez vs Alexander would be sweet. Khan is trying to wait out and get one fight for all the titles. so until then he'll fight no one that has a chance or even in his own weight class.

[IMDAZED]

Freddie needs to stop it. While they're desperately baiting guys like Juan Manuel Marquez to fight Khan, the rest of the top fighters at 140 are fighting each other. I'm sure Bradley would fight Khan tomorrow. But if Khan's team continues down the route they're going, they'll never fight Bradley. Maybe at 147 or something.

The thing you've gotta remember is that Freddie would be shredding Khan if he was training one of the other JWWs.

This is what i hate about Khan haters. They expect him to face all these boxers NOW. Khan is young and is not gonna retire soon, he eventually he will face some of them later. And those fighters haters mentioned should prove themselves that they are not hype and are marketable first.

JMM is aiming to be the greatest Mexican fighter by breaking the record, 3 titles in 3 weight division. He wants a 4th and to do so, must climb to another weight division and Khan has a title to offer to JMM. And is not a bad deal cause of the chin of Khan.

Is he going to babysit the belt?? You gotta defend that belt.
Prove themselves?? Alexander got 2 belts, Bradley got 1 belt, Maidana is the mandatory, and Ortiz is good but Golden boy will not put him with Khan.

I like how you think.
