    I think Nacho is a top notch trainer,but all wrong for Khan..JMM and Rafael do not have good defenses..They take a great shot and are great counter punchers..Khan needs someone to teach him how to be defensively responsible..I still think Bro ****m or Stewart are Khans best choices if he wants a new trainer..Maybe even Shields...

      it's certainly not a bad idea, but like a few people have said already, there will be a few difficult obstacles to overcome, mainly the language barrier.

      I woudln't mind seeing this happen, it'd be interesting to see what Nacho could do with Khan.

      He should really get Steward though, I've been saying this for awhile now.

        Even thou I think NACHO is the trainer in the game... NO! Khan would be number two again & won't get all the attention, the language thing will be a big problem as well. I say go with Floyd sr. He can show him how to use his reach & master defense.

          I voted yes just because Nacho is such a great trainer. I am not sure of his ability to speak English well enough for Khan to easily understand him in the middle of a hard fight. How much of a problem would it be with Khan based in England and Nacho based in Mexico City? If Khan can learn some of what he has to teach he would benifit from it.

            I still say Adam Booth, he talked about how he been fighting away from home for too long and how he wants to fight back at home again...so Adam Booth to me make a lot of sense then

            Khan is friend with David Haye I think so I am sure him and Groves would welcome him to the TEAM but Khan expect to be #1 Priority though

              What is Stewert going to teach him jab right hold ?

                Buddy McGirt. At least Khan would never have to worry about getting KO'd too much. McGirt would just throw in the towel.

                  Beristain is a great trainer. If he could get Khan to fight a little more like Finito Lopez then what more can Amir's fans ask for?

                  There is a language barrier but they could always hire some interpreters.

                  Juan Manuel Marquez probably wouldn't like the idea though. He nixed the idea of Nacho training Marcos Maidana.

                      But he would be with Stewart considering wald only fights two times a year at completely different times compared to khan plus steward has no problem heading to Europe so it's a good match
