    roach hasnt done much with khan. khan is fighting the same as he always has. its his conditioning which has improved.

    yet again, roache inherited an already quality fighter.

    What does Khan beating a glass-hearted old man who's lost all his big fights have to do with Roach? Khan could have trained himself to beat that *****.

    I thought Judah beat the count. Rematch would be great on the Klitschko vs Haye II Undercard.

    lol, at those last few posts. haters (before exactabox). where was Judah's powerful left that supposed to knock Khan into the middle of next week as he lunged in? Roach had Khan easily negate it, he hardly threw any. Roach is a great trainer, probably the best around today, and he learned from the best.

    I love Khan new style though.Beautiful to watch, his footwork, jab and combination. He still over shoots and misses hopefully he can improve that.

    Always thought of Freddie as a great coach, he's always maximized the potentials of his fighters, improved what's lacking and lessen the flaws to some extent. He also comes up with the most effective gameplans against his fighters' opponents. My problem with him is the way he promotes himself, by doing so, he often contradicts whats coming out of his mouth. Good trainer, bad promoter.

    Doing Roach a huge disservice here.

    Go watch Khan - Limond or Prescott, quality fighter?:lol: Compare that guy to the Khan of the last few fights, big difference.

    Even today Khan is still a work in progress.

    Roach is an excellent trainer and he always had heart. He showed a lot of grit when he was a fighter. Thats why he talks **** and aint nothing wrong with it.:bbb:bbb:bbb

    To be fair, Dwyer only picked the over and a Zab KO because the odds on a Khan win were ridiculous. You'd have to be spastic to place £100 on a fighter who has a questionable chin just to get £25 back, and for all the talk of Khan's 'power', he hasn't knocked anyone out in the first half of a fight in quite some time. His worst call of the night was picking Chisora to dominate Fury lol. . .

    Hell watch khan vs Gomez and then watch him vs maidana and you will see a night and day difference.
