    Khan going to Mayweather Sr?

    What level is that? Fight the weakest champion in the division for his first world title?
    Then an old ass shot Judah and an overrated journey man Malignaggi?

    Khan needs to work on his defense or he'll get ktfo again, anyone who knows anything about boxing knows this...

    You obviously don't

      Says the guy who thinks Khan should've gone with Mayweather Sr.

      Yup.




      The Khan that lost to Prescott was going nowhere. How blind are you that you cannot see how well he's progressed under Roach?

        I think Khan would've been fine with Mayweather Sr.

          How blind are you that you cannot see how his defense has not gotten any better?

            Boxing is all about defense.

            Yup.

                I think so, Freddie seems to really work on what a fighter is good at, Rather than work on improving what he isn't good at....
                That'll eventually bite you in the ass....

                  Hes progressed to really where he should be for an Olympic Silver Medalist. To me, he still gets hit with the same shots that Prescott hit him with.

                    So because Khan has defensive issues he should go with a defensive trainer?

                    This is Khan's first loss since Prescott, I'm sure he's going to put work in at the gym and attempt to sort out the flaws he has. Roach is obviously doing something right as he's got a good stable. So, we'll have to see if Khan's worked on his defense when he next fights...
