    I'm sure I read a post you made that said you worked on doors, so I just assumed you were a big fella.

    If Khan bases himself in america with an american trainer is that a good move?

    I think it would be fantastic if he could get a mayweather or mcgirt as his trainer and he learns and improves from working with them. He could become a good champion.

    Dunno about the 'dumping harrison' bit, if khan feels he needs to improve and a new trainer is the way, whats wrong with that?

    He needs to work on his defence, I'm glad he's looking for a more experienced trainer.

    Khan has undoubtedly improved under Harrison. It's plain for the eyes to see. Whether it is Harrison or Khan who improved Khan, I don't know. Khan has definitely improved though.

    I think he could find someone good.

    I've never been a big fan of Harrison's advice in the corner, I think this could be beneficial. Mayweather Sr would be ideal, he needs someone to keep him on the straight and narrow with all the bull**** hype going off around him. He would also sharpen up his defence big time, the weakest area of his game

    I agree 100%. I was never in favour of Harrison training him from the start. He hasn't addressed any of Khan weaknessess at all

    I'm interested to know if it was a mutual parting of the ways or who instigated this split.

    Presume if Khan remains UK based he will train at his own gym.

    Somehow I just can't see him relocating to the States unless he takes his whole family and entourage with him.

    Why ditch your trainer how many times have we seen a decent prospect work his way through trainers and not reach his potential i truly believe in if it aint broke dont fix it. We all know Khans vunrebilitys and im sure Oliver is as capable of picking them out as any other trainer in the world. Personally i cant stand Khan and find him highly arrogant and i think he wil be found out when he fights a live opponent who takes him into deepwater.
