Amir Khans training and gameplan

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/sport/more_sport/boxing/article5863242.ece

This is a good article that gives a little insight into his training and gameplan for the fight.

I'm glad to hear that Roach is working on worthy points like Khans balance. It's good to hear that the gameplan will be intelligent.

Khan to win! I hope!

 

I also can't see this body reshaping. He still appears to be big up top and skinny down bottom. I think he has given up weights and is going for more of a fitness approach. I'm glad to hear that.

those skinny legs dont help his punch resistance

 

HEs ****ed

 

what use is it hes going to be KTFO by Barrera anyways

 

I really don't think he'll make weight unless Warren rigs the scales like last time where he was wearing iron undies.

 

Speed kills.

 

“I know that you can’t teach a chin to take a punch better but you can teach defence and you can teach fundamentals. Amir wants to learn, he has great fundamentals now and great speed, so why not use this? I’m not talking about hand speed, I’m talking about foot speed. Barrera won’t find Amir all night long. If he does, I’ll be mad at him [Khan].”

Thats the most significant line of the whole thing. Roach knows what he wants to do, knows what he needs to do and knows what he can do. However, basically he's half admitting that Khan will always be ****ed if he gets caught clean.

I don't know how this one will go. I hope MAB wins because Khan doesn't deserve to have a name like that in the win column of his record. But no matter how 'fast' Khan is he won't ever be another PBF and is going to get hit plenty and lose plenty if he tries his hand at the highest level

 

You can't really judge the pic like that.

Wait for the weight in, you will see it better.

 

A fighter who has chin problems must be 100% spot on with every other part of his preparation other wise it will be an early finish. Looks like Khan and Freddy are doing everything they can to give him the best possible shot at winning.

I still beleive they are banking on Barrera being shot which is a gamble.

This is why this is a pick 'em fight imo.

 

or his chiken neck

 

good little article alright, all this body re-shaping and new technique learning may improve Kahn as a boxer...... but he will still have that chin!!

I cant wait for this fight....

 

Glass shatters

 

I assume he is traing to be much younger and much bigger than barrera ?

 

Thats it Mauler get the excuses in now:good
