    Amir clearly has a problem taking shots and has been KO'd/TKO'd several times and is probably on the verge of losing some of his faculties if he continues to fight at the elite level.

    Someone with his speed and reflexes shouldn't get hit with the sloppy shots that Danny was landing. I love Freddy but like Steward with his tall lanky fighters, Freddy is good with shorter compact fighters. I'd like to see Khan with Ingle or Steward who can take advantage of his speed and reach.

    It's not Freddie's fault, Khan doesn't listen to instructions. He is simply a mentally weak fighter who has to fight back when hurt. He needs to realise his limitations fight to his strengths.

    You can't train taking a shot. He just can't take a shot.

    it isn't about taking a punch. I was watching the Peterson fight and this one and he is fast but he throws punches without reason and flurries and leaves his hands down in exchanges. I said after round 2 the odds of him being stopped can happen if he keeps putting his chin up like that, and Stewart notices this and says nothing. Anyone's chin will fail if you just walk in and throw punches recklessly. He is like Jermaine Taylor. Fast hands but no fight plan.

    If Freddy can't actually train Khan to fight in his condition then he needs a new trainer one who can communicate to him.

    Opponents will be knocking him out in more spectacular fashion from now on.

    He throws punches like a washwoman, and has virtually no defense at all, none.

    New trainer or retirement.

    He has to change trainer, it's his only chance. I think the kid is finished, bitched about him in the past but gotta feel for him, must be distraught.

    He needs a new trainer, or he has to retire. This is it.

    Feel bad for the guy. He's been too big for division for a couple of fights now and I was worried about this happening. Props to GBP for matching two young guys. And props to Garcia for pulling off the upset. His power is impressive and he seems to be able to get the right shot at the right time.

    WTH Roach needs to go, I'm not sure he is even able to analyze whats going on anymore, Khan was brawling round 1 while taking heavy counters in the process, Khan comes back to the corner, and says great jab:patsch

    While I'm screaming at everbody in my house Khan is gonna get ko'ed, he's not jabbing at all, brawling instead of out speeding him and beating him easily, was this even a part of the strategy, what exactly was the strategy:huh
