Whether or not he decides to do that? I use Wlad as an example because the skill he learned after getting humiliated by Sanders and Brewster was jab, cross, hold. Then hold then hold, then hold. They didn't correct his chin they effectively hid it from sight.
    wlad has a very powerful right hand, a good left hook, and is physically bigger/stronger than his opponents so he can use it to drain energy from opponents when he uses stink tactics and leans down on them. khan doesn't have this.

    more importantly, wald judges distance better, has better balance, and is in a weaker division than khan.

      He can't do a Wlad. He has some physical advantages but not extreme enough to hold someone at the end of a jab like that totally brain-dead. Not like he's so physically imposing it's draining to have him lean up on you in the clinch, etc...

        Wow this guy looks serious and pretty confident in what he's saying..

        I sure do hope Khan pulls this one off, otherwise its over for him, I don't wanna see any further mishaps happening..

          By and large fighters are who they are. Very rarely can they change their styles drastically by changing trainers. And Khan is who Khan is.

            Roach said when they split you can't teach an old dog new tricks.It gets even tougher when the dog is Dopey in the IQ stakes.
            Ths guy is clearly a Khan fan. Collazo is an intelligent canny fighter playing him at his own game would be a mistake IMO the old in out ambush Khan has the best chance.
            Hunter is having a tough time of it right now,if Khan loses the fans are going to blame him. He must seriously be feeling the pressure.
            The omens are starting to remind me of the build up to the Hamed Barrera fight where they did this build up TV show where Naz set himself up for a fall.It is $h1t or bust make or break time for both of them.
            This is the first time I have seen in the build up to a Khan fight where the Khan fans have serious doubts. There were concerns going into the Maidana fight but not at this level.

              Good video!!!!


              Every fighter has to firstly, come to grips with their own reality prior to effectively determining what coach\trainer would bring the very best out of them.

              And therein lies the problem with Khan
              --

              When Khan looks in the mirror he see's a fighter that doesn't exist in reality. And therefore when he attempts to evaluate his strengths and weaknesses, he's not seeing the real. In Khan's mind he's already at the point in his career where he can beat the best P4P boxer on the planet. ..... So, when you're already at the top of your game (in your fantasy world) where do you go, or better yet, how much more can a trainer\coach help you??

              Whomever has been feeding Khan that "He's the greatest" nonsense has done a world of harm to Khan's mental state .... Because Khan actually believes it in reality.

                Khan will be khan but If his defence improves, then theres no way somebody is stopping him. He can outbox any fighters and has great foot speed but his defence is a little shaky. If virgil improves his defense and he can learn to go with the punches rather agaisnt it, then there is no body at 147 that can beat except mayweather or pacman.

                      Considering Virgil Hunter's fighters are on some losing streak lately, his reputation is on the line along with Khan's come May3rd.
