I think khan is finally realizing that Freddie Roach is not the great trainer he thought he was.

Khan knows he has no defense, he said it in a recent interview "we don't work much on defense", that says it all really, tells you why all of Roach fighters get hit more than they need too. Yeah they have great offense, fast hands, but they get hit way too much, Manny seemsto be slowing down, i think he's taken one to many beatings and now they are taking a toll on himComment

Khan we are waiting on you in Detroit!
Emmanuel Steward would make you a top notch fighter with your height and style; In fact you don't need a chin with Manny. I would like to see Khan make that change an you will see him become a superstar! Hearns, McCory, Paul, nor any of the great fighters that came from Kronk had great chins but skills is the key.Comment

You trippin Mayweather Sr has a poor attitude but the dude knows his boxing and can train. Chad Dawson till this day still looked his best when he was being trained by Mayweather Sr. I still think PBF would be better if he was trained by his father can't lie Roger helped his offense but overall just how I feel.Comment

Terrible fit. They are two ego's! Rogers style would suit a slick fighter with good head movement and quick feet. Khan is soooo stiff, his head movement is non existent and his feet are shocking! he looks akward as fuark very time he moves aorund the ring. Steward would be better as he teaches a safety first style ala Wlad. He will make Amir Work behind the straight punches and clinch when close.Comment

AMEN Khan, you hit the nail on the head. Go find a trainer who knows about infighting and defense techniques. Roach is a good trainer but as I have said several times, he teaches overwhelming offense, and when his fighters can't overwhelm someone, they look like ****. Taking nothing away from Roach, I am no fan of his but he is obviously a top notch trainer. I hate to sound ironic but Khan needs Floyd Mayweather Sr. Laugh if you want but it's true.
That was definitely a pro-Con set up. The commentators were sickening to listen to and the ref was out to do a Maidana on Garcia cause that fight would've been stopped in the 3rd round under any other circumstance.Mad props to Garcia for keeping his composure and getting the job done because the deck was definitely stacked against him.Comment

Khan combines a bad chin with an amateur style of boxing. He really needs to learn to move sideways, stay in the pocket when needed, clinch effectively and use those turnbuckles lol jkAmir Khan has taken full responsibility for his defeat to Danny Garcia last weekend - but still implied changes could be afoot.
Khan told Sky Sports he was not blaming trainer Freddie Roach for the loss that saw him part once more with the WBA light-welterweight title.
The Briton had earlier told The Mirror that perhaps being number two to Manny Pacquiao in Roach's Wild Card gym was not such a good thing after all.
And while re-iterated those sentiments, he insisted the blame for the fourth-round stoppage lay entirely at his own door.
"Freddie's a great trainer. I'm taking the whole blame, it was my fault," he said. "There are a few things we shouldn't have done in training camp and could have done differently, but me and Freddie will sit down and talk through it.
