    One week of not having Ariza in the UK with him, is not something Khan would be upset about. I think some greedy ****er from his team has convinced Khan to drop him for a cheaper alternative. Khan himself is probably happy with Ariza, but someone else isn't.

    If someone from his team has advised him to drop Ariza in order to get a cheaper option in then they deserve a bullet through the head for their absolute ****ing stupidity.

    Money is the only viable reason I can think of based on current information. We've come to learn how money-hungry Khan's team can be, so it wouldn't surprise me if they've convinced Khan to make cuts internally. Khan himself is probably happy with Ariza and what he's done for him, but we all know how influential and devilish managers/advisers can be when they want squeeze money out of their cash-cows.

    I don't think it has anything to do with drug testing. Because this is a far more serious issue, one that impac all of Roach's fighters, not just Khan.

    I'm with you on that. Other than leaving Roach, this is the worst decision Khan could possibly make. There better be a good ****ing reason for this.

    It's because of juicing, Khan's dad initiated the move to part ways with Ariza. Khan's dad clearly saw wrongdoing occurring with Alex Ariza.

    Man, I just have my doubts on it being about Money. I honestly doubt it.

    Team Khan aren't saying anything.

    I've tried asking the guy who lives off Khan's fame, Saj, but he's not telling anyone either.

    Laz, tell that brown-nosing ****er to spill the ****ing beans! I'm sure he can spare two minutes from washing Khan's underwear, and tell us why his master dropped one of the most valuable members of the team.

    Im sure boxers drop conditioning coaches ALL the time.

    Because its Alex Ariza its a big deal all of a sudden.

    Ariza has a big Mouth. But lets not forget he is just a Conditioning Coach!

    I've resorted to asking Amir's uncle. Hopefully he replies back.

    exactly, the only difference between him and other good conditioning coach/nutritionists is that he is famous.

    Solid, he's not just any conditioning coach, he's the best in the business. Khan wouldn't be where he is today if it wasn't for him. The same could be said for Pacquiao.
