        I honestly think people are overreacting. The statements don't seem malicious and at the end of the day Khan is with Roach more than anyone in this thread, he more than anyone is in a position to tell whether or not his health affects his job as trainer.

        At the end of the day working with many fighters would tire any trainer out let alone an individual with Parkinson. Before reading Khan's statements people didn't think it was wrong saying that Roach could barely get his instructions out or that he could barely hold the mitts up.

        Only thing I think is wrong on Khan's part is going public with the statements.
        I agree. If I was a fighter I would want a fairly young fresh guy who can motivate me ect. He's not disrespecting Freddie by any means, just stating that the Parkinsons is effecting his performance as a coach. Now what Brandon Rios was doing, that is disrespectful. Khan isn't making fun of the guy or anything

In the next interview, you talk about whatever's on your mind THAT day. I think everything Khan and Roach both say is true.
          Why didn't Khan say this earlier? He's had many interviews about the split up. I think he's getting back at Roach for saying Khan needs to stay away from punchers and away from his fighters.

                  Not everything comes out at once and why would ''Parkinson is affecting his performance as a coach'' be a strike back? It'd be easier for him to say he was an incompetent coach as opposed to giving statements that would invoke feelings of sympathy for those listening.
