        Booth would be good since he is based in the UK, but does he really have the experience to deal with Khans style?

        Manny would teach Khan some basics, probably turn him into a boring fighter. Manny's excitement is jab jab jab, jab, jab, clinch, jab jab jab cross

        But he could actually be the best trainer for Khan, or Roger Mayweather

          Manny's not bad but sometimes he's hit and miss. I guess all trainers are really.
          Booth is only really proven with Haye, but he's definitely improving Groves too.

          It could be a bad idea but I wonder if Khan should hire Pernell Whittaker as a part-time assistant coach at WildCard to teach him all that upper body movement he's missing right now. Imagine Khan having a Whittaker defense.

            He's being a little bit more humble at least. But he still excuses his losses too much. Too light, drugs, now lucky punch. Is there such a thing Khan?

            I think some key area's Khan lacks in are defence, tactics, timing, and maturity.

            Nacho would be perfect for him.

                Khan needs a trainer that will turn him into a more methodical fighter who can effectively switch gears when he needs to. Khan can no longer rely on his speed to get him through a fight, cuz the blueprint is there to beat him. As of now, he is not a complete fighter, and there are numerous fighters at 135-147 who can exploit his flaws.

                  Booth or Steward would suit.

                    Leave Roach entirely. Roach is an offensively minded trainer, while Khan has speed he needs to work on his timing and defense.
