    Khan is a sucker for left hooks and right hands. Granted they were expecting a more passive approach from Algeri. But, his inability to move out of the way of those two punches remains a constant. As soon as he gets in there with a puncher it is lights out. And if he gets in there with Mayweather, even though he is not big puncher, he is hitting the canvas. Mayweather will punch with him and land that right hand or the check left hook, all night.

    Changing trainers isn't going to really benefit him. He is who he is at this point.

    Spreading lies again I see about Khan. I guarantee nobody can find me a source on Khan saying he is leaving Hunter. Instead I can find you one saying Hunter will be in his corner next fight regardless of the poor performance vs Algieri.

    Who would be good for him? Maybe Sugar Hill, or Nazim Richardson?

    You know, I just realized that Algieri and Kovalev are stablemates.

    What a contrast, huh?

    Don't see it.

    Chris out of his cage is far more threatening than Kovalev.

    No, I mean, as far as punching power, you don't get much different than those two.

    Khan just had a bad camp.. He peaked too early in camp.. 14 weeks was just too long..

    That Khan vs Alexander outpoints Floyd..

    Hopefully Khan doesn't become the next Chad Dawson, although in Dawson's case he had trainers that made him a better boxer but he fired them anyway. Khan on the other hand blames everyone but himself. Freddie Roach was right, Khan has a "character problem" and no trainer can fix that. Algeria was a risky fight anyway, it was not a good choice, not the trainers fault.

    My moneyss on him going over to John David Jackson & then he'll start telling everyone he regularly spars Kovalev & takes his power no problem, in fact he dominates the sparring sessions.
