    Comments Thread For: Roach: Amir Khan Could Be a Threat To Mayweather

    While Freddie Roach gives Marcos Maidana absolutely no shot to defeat WBC/WBA welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (46-0, 26KOs) on September 13th, the veteran trainer does believe Amir Khan (29-3, 19KOs) - at least stylistically - is a real threat to Mayweather's undefeated record.

    If Mayweather overcomes Maidana, Khan is a likely candidate for Floyd's next fight.

    Roach was the head trainer of Khan for several years. They parted ways in 2012, and then Khan hired Virgil Hunter.

    no offense freddie but your job is to teach the fighter how to win by any means even if that means a boring fight. its almost like he uses boring fight as an excuse for not being able to teach certain styles

      Freddie's been yapping away quite a bit about Floyd lately.

      Sounds like he's having nightmares.

        If Khan could maintain his stamina for 12 hard rounds and be lucky enough not to get wrecked, he might give Floyd problems cause he is fast. The problem is Khan's chin and stamina are large liabilities on the elite level.

            If Maidana can win 3 rounds by pressuring then i'd say Khan can win 4 by boxing (although i'm not too sure about 147 current Khan)

                  Damn! Is Pac fighting Floyd on Sept 13? Why is Roach's focus on Mayweather and not Algeri? This is embarrassing at this point; Roach needs to quit and concentrate on Pac's preparation.

                    I thought Roach was suffering from Parkinson's disease but it seams he has a case of Mayweatherson's disease. He's obsessed with this guy to stay in the media, because he's definitely not distracting Floyd. So what's up Freddy?
