    I have old posting telling you guys that Khan would leave Roach after this fight. I still believe it to me true. At this level he needs a trainer who's gonna put him first. Not having him travel to meet Pac's requirements. Roach has took Khan as far as he can. Roach is like fill Jackson he can bring the best out of you, but doesn't really help you improve your flaws.



    Khan with Floyd Mayweather Sr as trainer ONLY, would this work? If so why? if not why?

    ***Disclaimer**** Mayweather as trainer only! (Not corner)with Adam booth or somebody else working on strategy, match making , and the corner
    He has to give something a chance, maybe emanuel stewart. Only problem is Stewart is all offense, and couldn't help Hearns tuck that chin. He needs to do something drastic to let us know he means business. If the chin is weak learn how to protect it. Offensively he's fine, or good enough.

    no it wouldn't floyd sr aint **** as a trainer just like he wasn't **** as a fighter.

    who does sr train right now? OKAY then.

    his own son don't want him.

    plus he has aids in his lungs he needs to keep his ugly mouth shut before charlie zelenoff slaps him again.

    Stewart is all offence. This is the guy that trains wlad, right? Ok.

    And no, no-one in their right mind should be desperate enough to be in the same building as Mayweather Sr.

    Not sure if they could actually get along and work together.. Although I'm sure they'd market the hell out of a Floyd vs Amir fight if this happened as they'd have father trainer vs son fighter again.. Probably up the trash talking on 24/7 and sell tons.

    I would go for Naseem Richardson or Ronnie Shields.... they seem to do better working with what the fighter naturally has... vs molding them into something the trainer specializes in...

    Buddy Mcgirt is a pretty good defensive coach, he's a **** cornerman but an excellent teacher.

    would be good for both parties..

    at this point though, would you really see any improvement from Khan? just end up a Ricky Hatton II..

    He improved Dawson a lot. But Dawson had a problem with Sr being bossy. There was this one incident where Dawson wanted to have his "girlfriends" watch him train, and Sr told Dawson not to have the girls in the gym. Mayweather Sr is like those military drill sergeants, can Khan put up with that?
     
  14. Steward has other boxers
    Snr is free

    Best fit would be pedro diaz esp due too khans style but comunication could b a problem

    It would work alot better than staying with Roach.
