    Comments Thread For: Booth, Lockett and Farnell Dissect Amir Khan's Defeat

    I will always remember watching Breidis Prescott hitting the pads moments before he fought Amir Khan in 2008. Despite the booming sounds that emanated from his dressing room as the underdog attacked the mitts, I still could not have predicted what was to follow that night in Manchester.

      The trainers were on point. He is amateurish. He does think he's a star. He did overlook Garcia.

      He needs to focus on the task at hand. His inside game does suck. I don't agree with them on his footwork though. It's horrendous.

        I used to dislike Adam Booth, but I'm definitely warming to him. Great corner instructions, he really knows his fighters, and I think he was spot on with what he said here.

          The first line is interesting because I remember watching Prescott in the dressing room and was impressed. Didnt make any last minute changes to my prediction though cuz I thought Prescot must be rubbish or they would have picked him but I didn think to myself if Khan wins he has to get some props cuz this is the 1st guy he's fought who actually looks decent.

          Compare Prescott with Oisin ***ain Khans next opponent. It was clear Khan didnt want to go near punchers again and he didnt until he met Maidana and just sc****d through.

              What I've been saying for ages since I've been on here - Khan is a professional amateur.....

                Khan's biggest problem is his stance. His right foot is too far behind his left. As a result, he can't turn his hips through his punches, particularly when he throws a right cross. He simply has no power on that punch because he has no hip rotation.

                  Amir Khan only has one person to blame for his loss and that's his arrogant azz!

                    reading all the good advice from all the other trainers begs the question what has Roach done and Khan done to improve his weaknesses ?

                    Ive never heard Roach point of these weaknesses
