Roach knows the Southpaw Assassin has a good chance of beating Pacquiao.

Khan needs a tune up fight, a confidence builder type of fight and he needs it this year, no point of staying out of the ring for a year.

He should go for Guerroro, Peterson rematch, Vargas, these are all tune up fights

He shouldnt jump in the ring with Garcia or Pac or even Cotto, get your bearings back, see how you look against a decent fighter, if he beats one of these, then he should continue boxing, if he doesnt best to retire.

He looked sharp in there against Canelo, considering he was out of the ring for over a year. He'll be even sharper if he fights twice a year.

Roach: 'A rather see Khan take a break and look at another direction'

No respect to khan at all lmao

[Willy Wanker]

I like Khan, but Pac still has enough in the tank to really hurt Khan and ko him.

Roach is right. Khan needs to rest for a bit. He should fight a Guerrero or Berto. And then maybe think about a Garcia rematch or Bradley fight.

It would not be a good look for Manny to pass on him to fight Bradley (which no one wanted to see) and now choose Khan after he got KO'd by Canelo. Khan needs to do what Manny did after he got decapitated by Marquez, fight Brandon Rios!

yeah, fight a heavy puncher. smart move. khan needs to call out berto, that'll be a good tune up for khan and an easy win too.

lol back to the khan we all know and love

Rios is a slow puncher, which is why Pacquiao chose him after a brutal KO. Did you see Rios vs. Bradley? How many KOs does Rios have @ 147? Khan vs. Berto would be good if they weren't trained by the same trainer! Khan needs a decent fighter with name recognition, but one in which he would be heavily favored.

kinda like how chino, canelo = slow puncher right?

so rios is a fighter with name recognition? thats good to know then.

same trainer doesnt mean they cant fight and the way khan got slept against canelo, hunter might be getting the boot. berto is a perfect tune up for khan, easy, low risk, and plus berto just got done fighting floyd, so berto's name still rings a bell when mention.
