    If Khan had not picked the cuban trainer over Roach the Prescott loss would never have happened.

    the training is alot more professional in the states.best move he made.the uk needs to get some big professional gyms going with some star trainers or we will lose all our fighters and all fights will be in U.S. all the time.

    Ummm, he was considered a huge prospect long before he ever met Ariza.

    The guy medalled in the olympics when he was 17 for crying out loud!

    I'm pleasantly surprised with how well he's done and keeps improving since going to America.
    But to suggest he is a good pundit or analyst is ludicrous.Even Andy Kerr was pulling his hair out when Amir was in the Primetime studio.
    Duke is **** poor but Amir can be so bad it's funny.
    Should stick to what he excels at.

    I got it wrong, it didn't take a prime elite to get him unstuck. Khan has zero ring IQ and his power severely diminishes the longer the fight goes on AND he was hanging on for dear life again, against a fighter not known for his power. I dread to think what someone like a Prime Hatton would do to him, he can't handle effective pressure.
