    Khan could have Freddie Roach, Emmanuel Steward AND Floyd Mayweather, Sr. in his corner and it still wouldn't give him a chin.:-(

    True but he would have had a world class trainer in his corner to help him improve his defense. :good

    he should put the blame on his chin, not rubio. on a more serious side, i think hooking up with a defensive trainer would have been better.

    Can't find a reason why he wouldn't. Khan is a major attraction there, just check out the support he gets, he's very popular there and one loss or even two won't ruin it all for him. As long as tickets are being sold, Warren will continue doing what he's doing. :yep

    It's defense what he needs and Freddie can sure as hell give him that. Look how he changed Pacquiao when it comes to defense and movement.

    i just don't think freddie roach as a trainer is suitable for him.. roach is more focused on conditioning... he should hook up with floyd sr. imo to improve his defensive skills (or learn how to potshot and run so that his chin won't get touched too much)
