@ArizaFitness: @bnally84: vindication, Alex? No, hard to watch that Hack ruin my work. It can't be just a coincidence when Khan just parts ways with Ariza and his so called "improved" chin just happens to give in. What you guys think?
Ruben tabares drastic change in khans physiology definately was detrimental. No doubt about it. In addition khan fought flat footed square nd then shots aborbed much worse. I saw this **** from a mile off.
It's nothing to do with Ariza or Taberes, a guy's chin is either there or not. But lets be fair here, Khan was hit on the back of the head, behind the ear, that takes away the equilibrium...So it was understandable that Khan went down. He got straight back up and continued fighting, just like he did against Maidana! where he was trained by Ariza. S&C coaches were never used years ago, so all this s&c coach BS about making a guy's chin better is rubbish.
Khan knows his defeats are just guiding posts towards victory. He has a lot of self belief and wont give up.
Yeah, but It depends where the guy is hit. Against Maidana, he was against the ropes and hit with an overhand smack on the jaw, whereas in the Garcia and Prescott fight he was in the middle of the ring, with nothing to hold him up. I don't think the S&C coaches do much, if anything at all to improve a guy's fight game to be honest. I think the best thing for Khan is to move up and stop fooling himself that he'll do well at 140 when he's growing out of the weight, obviously!
Spot on Mace. The Mayweathers will be all over this. I think Khan should retire asap but hope he tests positive before he does though.
I think Khan recovers if he has Ariza The two times he dropped Ariza Khan looked bad. Them Ariza shakes are the truth!!!!!!!!!!
What are you on about? Test positive for what? The test results aren't random you know? You can't test positive if you aren't using.
And you can't get dropped by 2nd rate blown up lightweights like Limond and Gomez and then stand upto Maidana's bombs without someone like Ariza in your camp.
Was Alex Ariza with Khan for the Peterson fight? Was he with Pacquiao for the Marquez and Bradley fights?
Ariza is full of **** blowing his own trumpet and doesn't know much about boxing. The reason Khan got knocked out was because he took too many clean punches on the button from a big short sharp puncher and his chin will never be great. I don't care if he squats an extra 40lbs, he's still getting knocked out taking too many clean punches If Khan wants to improve he'll hire a defensive coach and work on boxing smart. Watch some Monzon tapes and try to emulate that style, become a master of distance control and clinching. Exactly
