I dont understand how hard it is to see that you just dont have what it takes to be on top. stick to fighting at the B level and you'll be fine, move up to A level, and well, you're gonna get permanently injured...
    I wouldn't say any of the 3 fighters he lost to are A level tbh.

      i would have to agree with you, but khan will certainly want those A level guys, and props to him, but my goodness he really will get injured permanently

        What an idiot, nobody cares what you are doing... how bout you pay attention on what your opponent is doing, which is trying to land his bread and butter... the same punch he landed on his previous opponent.
        I like Khan, but he is just full of himself... Go train in the Himalayas if you want to be all secretive (this is actually the first I heard him say this so I take it as an excuse).

          the only way to overcome your weaknesses is to first recognize them.. khan's taken the first real step in the right direction.. he's finally escaped the clutches of freddie roach (who is badly overrated) and he's headed for a dedicated coach who'll spend a lot more time with him actually training..

          the question remains how good is virgil hunter? i mean is ward to hunter what pacquiao is to roach... a fighter which makes the trainer look a lot better than he really is?

              Never heard him say anything negative about himself before.
              And yet, he still manages to make it sound like even that is someone elses fault.

                Didn't Khan say he wanted a trainer who could be focused on him more but goes to a trainer who has quite a few other fighters and Ward will always be numero uno for Hunter not to mention the addition of Angulo which is strictly a money grab bcse he's limited to say the least

                  So what was the excuse when you got ko'd in 53 seconds with your old trainer?

                    Your defense is back cause your offense consist of throwing alot of meaningless punches..if you calmed done and worked behind your jab you'd go along way.............but you wanna be Manny except Manny can take the punches..you cant

                      I keep saying it...nothing is horribly wrong with his defense. The problem is his chin. Everyone is gonna get hit by a clean punch you have to be able to take it or at least recover well. Khan does neither. Virgil will help him with his positioning...meaning when he's within striking distance of his opponent his defense tightens up.
