    Tall with a weak chin there's only one man for the job. Manny Steward.

        Khan wanted to fight Soto?

        Why doesn't Khan try to fight the guy who just blew Soto away?

          The judges of that fight let Roach off the hook on this one.
          Pacquiao won the fight but you gotta admit that he ran out of ideas towards the end of the fight, just chasing Bradley around and hardly throwing much.. A good trainer would have made Pacquiao more effective to the point that the fight would have ended in a KO by Pac, but instead he ran out of ideas..

            Nice to see they split on good terms. Khan had to leave Roach though, his defence hasn't improved at all.

              Roach thought what 95% of the people watching thought.

              Pac had the fight in the bag by a large margin.

              Even in the last few rounds Pac was landing and backing Bradley up, doing what he needed to do against a Bradley who was playing safe.

              I can't blame him at all for that loss and even this was just a nitpick of an otherwise comfortable victory fcked up by the judges.

                I've heard rumours from people in the game that it's Roach's heavy drinking that was the main catalyst for the split. I mean, he wasn't just tipsy after the Garcia fight, he could barely talk.

                  Poor Amir Khan

                  The one that doesnt get any credit for having the only undefeated elite fighter holding 2 titles in 2 different weight classes simultaneously... Roger "The Black Mamba" Mayweather. Mayweather Sr. would require Khan to have a sense of discipline that he doesnt posses. Also Sr would probably try to change Khan into a pure boxer that he doesnt want to be.

                  I dont think Roger is looking to train him so I believe Devon Alexanders trainer Cunningham or Wards trainer Virgil Hill would be more suitable for Khan if he works on his chin with headgear weight attached and is willing to listen.
