    Already been posted.

    He's blatantly bullshitting. There was nothing wrong with Ariza's training techniques, as evident by not only the results, but by Khan's numerous videos and statements in the past of his happiness with Ariza's work. The problem lies with his management and gap-toothed father, who are pulling the strings and forcing Khan to do things which could be detrimental to his career. Khan is just too scared to speak up to his father - who, along with the management team, is content only with making as much money as he can.

    For this reason, I'd be quite happy to see Khan lose in his next fight.

    Yeah i get that feeling to, I hope khan's management was different because i know how they deal with these situations and its not good. I hope it doesnt affect him in the ring but I hope they fix their team up

    What did Ariza do to him that was so bad? Sounds like he made a move on him or something.

    Because the tune-up is suppose to be a safe fight that will help in preperation for Bradley. Prescott wouldn't be a good choice because:

    A) He fights nothing like Bradley.
    B) He's better off saved for another time when Khan really needs to fight him to win back support/respect (i.e. after he loses to Bradley, maybe).

    His dad seems okay to me, he's put Khan in his place a few times when he's done something out of order.

    Asif Vali is a ***** of the biggest order, what does he actually do to justify his job as manager...the same goes for the rest of the leeches in "team khan"

    De La Hoya deserves some blame too...he seems to have no clue how to run a promotional company. What's with the slave clauses for Khan's opponents

    Ariza didn't do anything to Khan, nor did Khan do anything to Ariza.

    It's Khan's management who are the problem. They're unwilling to pay Ariza the money he is owed, and have forced Khan to drop him.

    Maybe not his dad then, but definitely his manager. And I agree, I'd like to see Schaefer or Oscar take a more active role in what Khan does. But it's difficult to say who's role is what from where we're sitting.

    Khan's not a very smart guy throwing one of his trainers under the bus.

    i think it started after the altercation between ariza and maidana's trainer....i think ariza's smashmouth antics is part of it...

    or maybe its just money issues....anyways...

    still i think khan is gonna get ko'd if the maidana rematch occurs :lol:

    We never know what goes on in someone's house. Ariza could have done something wrong.

    No, Khan confirmed it happened before the Maidana bout. No doubt its financial reasons. Hence why they resorted to stealing contracts.

    Ive always stated that Khan isnt the most intelligent kid in the world , and often lands himself in the **** with shitty comments that contradict each other !!! ;

    " I dont like to get into the business side of boxing , i just get in the gym and train for an opponent "

    " the offer was 4 - 5 times his last purse , he was asking for a silly number "

    " if any fight makes financial sense then it can be done "

    Jonny Nelson , grow some ****in balls and take heed from the HBO team who ask questions that the public wanna hear ................ exactly the reason i cannot stand British coverage of boxing !!!!

    Clearly Golden Boy have promised Khan 6 figures for every fight , on this one they are struggling to deliver , why , because there is a lack of opponents and the offers are ****in ludacris , the offer was disclosed by team McCloskey and it was sickening , i like the kid as a fighter and deep down beneath the bull **** we are seeing these days i like him as a person , but that is changing rapidly !!!!

    Richard Schaefer draws up contracts and calculates the offers not De La Hoya .............. if it was down to De La Hoya they'd have gone bust years ago !!!!
