Booth has got it right with Groves, and almost everytime with Haye. Haye may not come back. Khan may be looking for a new direction to rebuild and could get the 1-2-1 attention from Booth Khan would still have his independance
Groves has severed his apprenticeship and will be the main man in the gym, khan will be no2 and won't like this
Khan needs to go back to basics, some of the best have been stopped on more than one occasion. Step out of the limelight for a while, keep mouth shut and work his way back up. The problem is that Khan still seems like a kid. Put some weight on, grow a beard or somet, have kids etc...
Khan's ego got infront of his head, when he was hurt he should of held on to garcia instead of brawling with him. Even though im not a big fan i admit khan has won me over with his warrior mentality
he needs to quit boxing and find another activity, with the break dance he did over the weekend he'd make a great bhangra coach, khans too much masalaa
Adam Booth likes to coach boxers, with speed, athletic ability, great motor skills and co-ordination. Khan has all of these attributes. His punches resistance is not really the strongest, but neither is David Haye's at heavyweight. But Haye's resistance my be slightly underrated.
I agree that Haye's punch resistance is slightly underrated. I also think it's a big factor that Haye seems to be able to keep his cool for the most part if he's hurt - i.e. Mormeck fight - Khan on the other hand, can make things worse for himself when he's hurt. I'll give him a partial free pass for the 4th round against Garcia though, really think the punch he took in the 3rd finished him in effect.
Khans big problem is his mentality, and I think Booth could improve that. Stop trying to be a warrior, fight to your strengths, take your time etc. But, I think Khans ego is too big to truly listen to a trainer who is going to kick his arse.
I think Khan's actually quite compliant and respectful with what Freddie Roach wants him to do in fights on a conscious level, it's just when he gets tagged, his head gets frazzled, the plan goes out the window and he reverts to type.
he young sir is khans down fall ,one second calls booth a *****, nxt post is (what you think about khan giong back to uk training under booth) :rofl where he will still play second fiddle
