    Comments Thread For: Roach Not Sure if Khan, and Pacquiao Will The Same

    LEGENDARY trainer Freddie Roach believes that Amir Khan could be damaged goods as he bids to rescue his career.

    Khan meets the unbeaten Carlos Molina in the early hours of Sunday morning as he attempts to get back among the world greats following two successive defeats.

    But Roach, who Khan sacked after those career-threatening reversals, is convinced that his former pupil could be in for a psychological backlash.

    Roach, who has trained 24 world champions, became the fourth trainer to be dumped by Khan, in the wake of his latest fourth-round defeat by Danny Garcia.

      Of course.. blaming the coach is the easiest course of action.
      But Roach can't change the fact that when Pacquiao goes aggressive, he doesnt think his movements, he's on instinct mode.
      Hence why he got caught with two big punches against JMM.
      So get your head out of the toilet.
      Roach is a great coach.

        Pac is done, Marquez abuses him in the rematch and KHTFO even easier.

          Roach seems a little bitter even though he says he wishes Amir well...In all honesty Pac got knocked out alot worse then Khan ever has...neutrally speaking I think both Khan and Pac win their rematches if they get em' Both were winning up untill getting caught.

            Speaking from experience in and out of the ring, both fighters will probably never retain the ability to respond to pressure without the sensation that aggression will be their doom.

            Manny is too brave for his own good.
            Like Arguello he would be beaten twice by a more ignited opponent.
            Khans fate is sealed. He whiskers are now beyond in doubt. He has none.

            He will be caught again either by Molina or Garcia.

              Khan either fights conservatively now or gets chin checked and KO'd again.

              I don't think there is a fighter alive that has a good punch who is afraid of Khan.

              Every Khan opponent knows that no matter how behind on the cards they are, they'll always have a chance.

              Pac is a different story. Pac got caught with a perfect punch from a man who has studied Pac incessantly for the past 8 years. Hard to duplicate those kinds of results. It depends on how bad Pac himself becomes psychologically since I still believe he'll have a good beard based on how absolutely massive that shot was that KO'd him.

                Roach is a great coach.
                So when roaches fighters are winning, it's "what a great job roach done, Roach for trainer of the year"

                But when his fighters lose, it's "don't blame roach"

                Also, Khan I'm not worried about as much as Pacquiao for having long lasting effects, Khan was stopped on his feet, asking to fight on, pacquio was rendered unconscious, there's a difference

                You have to take the rough with the smooth

                  Funny how Roach says Khan called me up to part ways where as before it was his team who did it.
