      Khan has improved in some ways but he's still finding his style. He whupped Diaz because of some of those improvements and it was his old ways which got him in trouble - techniques that Roach had sort of instilled into him. If Khan hadn't gone to Hunter it's quite possible he might have lost to Diaz becaue it's where he stood his ground and tried to brawl or throw quick multipunch combos, that's when he got in trouble. When Khan was boxing and moving for parts of the fight he literally dominated Diaz.

            There was a lot of talk fairly early on in the khan Hunter relationship that khan needed to spend more time with Hunter to implement changes. these were statements made by Hunter that made it into the media and forums.if that is the case it is hard to see how big changes can be made and with khan now married with even more distractions I just don't see big improvements happening . It is hard to train a old dog new tricks especially if the dog has low innate intelligence.
            The whole focus of team Khan seems to be to land and cash in on a Mayweather fight and ride on past glories rather than make new ones. While the LWW Tournament was running Khan rode the media attention as being the big fight at the end to the eventual winner. That never happened and there is no talk of him having a rematch with Garcia. It all seems a cynical ploy to bide time in the hope of landing a Mayweather Bonanza.We were then sidetracked out of the LWW Tournament with a fight with Alexander which was risky but winnable for Khan. But that fell through as I suspect the risks were too high if he lost as that would finish off any chance of a Mayweather fight. So we are back to square 1 again with him trying his utmost to land the bonanza now with no plan B. It just seems his team feel they just have enough credibility after several recent shoddy performances to land the bonanza but have no faith the make big statement fights like the obvious ones out there like Maidana and Garcia rematches and a title fight against Porter.
            When he started with Hunter there were loads of media articles on how we would see a transformed Khan. That never happened and those press releases have dried up. This makes me suspect things are not going swimmingly between Hunter and Khan development wise and career wise the focus appears to be on end game with only talk of a Mayweather fight and now if that falls through a Manny fight. None of this points to hard core development in the gym but more to a focus on a massive pension plan fight.

                I'm not sure he has got worse, but I'm not sure he has improved either. In all honesty though I don't think it matters who trains Khan at any point of his career, and what I mean by that is that there are a lot of great trainers out there that could help him but as soon as he gets hit it all goes to **** no matter who trains him.

                I actually don't mind Khan (I don't think he deserves a Floyd fight though) but his main issue is his chin and/or recovery powers, and there isn't a trainer out there that can solve that really, including Virgil.

                Shame though because if Khan had a great chin and stayed at the Wildcard he could have been a lot more of a force in my opinion.
