    Maybe Ariza got fed up of those scum bags Khan hangs around with?

    Khan found out that Ariza was only giving him the B-side meff.

    lol I bet Khan dropping Ariza is going to be the more popular news this weekend than Bradley/Alexander :rofl

    From my perspective, as long as Khan has Roach, and he follows Roach, he doesn't need Ariza.

    Think about it, if Khan had followed Roach's game plan in the 10th instead of coming forward against a brawler, he wouldn't have needed the extra conditioning for his legs as he wouldn't be getting caught with flush shots.

    Also, btw, just putting this in there, Team Khan has officially dropped Mccloskey as a candidate for April 16th bout :D

    I think there are financial reasons behind this.

    :lol: Well, naturally. Only Pac gets the A-Side, otherwise everyone else would be as good as Pac.

    I'd love to hear the reason for Khan dropping him. Ariza was probably getting too full of himself, or there was a personality clash.

    If it's Financial reasons then :patsch on Team Khan. They are already looking stupid with all this talk about overpricing opponents etc. This being about Money would make it worse.

    Personally, I don't believe that's the issue. I think its that Khan won't have Ariza with him for a week or so in the UK as he'll be working on Manny. Manny pays him more so there might have been a dispute on that side.

    Amir probably wanted him in the UK. Who's Ariza going to go for? That probably left a sour taste in Team Khan's mouth so they've just thought of getting a new conditioning coach altogether who will focus solely on Khan.

    It cant be financial, surely??

    I mean Khan has given nothing but praise to Ariza for the job he was doing, he couldnt possibly be so stupid as to try and get a cheaper conditioning coach, talk about shooting yourself in the foot if thats the case.

    There's something more to this than just a finances or wanting a coach to spend more time with Amir, if it was either of those two reasons then they would have just came out and said it , "nothing personal but he's training too many people to give Amir his full attention now" etc, instead of the bull****, "time to move on" line we've been fed.
