I see a lot of poster calling him a hype job and that he got exposed against Peterson. Chill with that ****. I picked Peterson to beat Khan bc Khan has some flaws in his game that did him in. :He has a lack of inside game that prevents him from doing damage on the inside, He just covers up the same way Manny does and then waits for his opponent to stop and he runs away to try and flurry. :His jab is fast but its not even used to to gain distant or offset his opponent. He fights with an Amateur style and that won't work against skilled boxers all the time. :Freddie Roach didn't look good tonight and his health is declining which is sad and my heart goes out to him. Bottom line though is that he spends so much time working with fighter on what they are good/great, rather than working on their flaws. Name me one of his fighters that can fight on the inside? NONE and Khan needs better foot work as well. The need to bring in someone to assist Roach in training that will help these guys with their Flaws.
I don't think he was exposed he's still very good, but he isn't the p4p caliber fighter he thinks he is.
:good You are right. He has a lot of work to do. He needs to stop wasting all those punches too fighting like an Amateur. I still think he will go on to do some great things in the sport and he could beat Peterson in the rematch but it is going to take him working on those flaws and learning how to make adjustments.
Nah that's a good point. He seems to celebrate the speed too much and thinks everything revolves around it.
Yes, I agree especially with the amateur thing. Also, he needs to learn how to block a ****in uppercut atsch.
Once again a few facts were proven to be true. Khans has no inside game. Khan has no defense. Khan cant adjust. Khan is really fast. Rounds 1 and 2 Khan went to Peterson and tried to take him out. He was bullying him. In round 3 Peterson adjusted started beating Khan up. Rounds 5 and on it was Khan running. The same he did against Maidana.
The rematch will be easier for Peterson if Khan doesn't bring anything else to the table. Off the top of my head this fight shows how Khan should be fighting on the inside. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RztFkl61-4I[/ame] Jones was relaxed and picked his shots. Khan just covers and runs out when the chance is there and goes back to flurrying like an Amateur. A few left hook body shots followed by a few upstairs on the inside could have done some damage to Peterson but Roach doesn't work on flaws.
morehoethehoetat you just picked peterson because he was the underdog you ****** so if he won (which he did) you'd get to gloat you didn't really think he could do it. same reason you picked mayorga and margo to beat cotto what next Mathew Macklin to beat Martinez?
First of all you jobless, insecure ******, I picked Peterson bc I think he is the more skilled boxer out of the two and have always liked him as a boxer. Don't be mad bc your boy lost. Now go shoot up heroin with your brother and troll under age girls on facebook loser.
khan isn't my boy and never was look mr business man of the year is getting all defensive. why dont you go back to molesting your daughter or should i do it for you?
Its simply the case that Roach and co. have been working on what Khan HAS rather than addressing what he lacks, inside game, how to reserve energy and not waste it running around, zapping unaimed shots etc. It simply comes down to the one question: CAN roach teach khan what he doesnt know? or atleast address his weaknesses? It seems theyve been working on his strengths so much, his jab etc that his flaws have gone un-attended because the only flaw everyone was first to point out with khan was his CHIN. But now hes shown that its not the chin thats his real problem.. its his actual flaws as a boxer.
