    He needs to put the blame where the problem is and that is his Glass Jaw. He can't fight either. Just isn't cut out for it. He needs to retire. He is just going to keep getting KOed over and over.

    Inflated egos tend to see & say things like that.

    Maybe another KO is needed to make reality hit home...

    like i said years ago, Khan is one of the most arrogant fighters I've ever come across. This guy was getting hammered by Garcia and kept taunting Garcia. I enjoyed Garcia thoroughly whipping his ass and his father talking ****.

    It's hard to see him older and getting worse. I wish him the best. Freddie, with the Parkinson's disease, he was struggling with instructions and couldn't move as well.

    which is all true, he never blamed it on parkinsons, he said roach is still very good on the pads, in the full interview

    He's right though. Parkinson's is a terrible and debilitating disease, and Freddie clearly looks in worse condition compared to say 2 or 3 years ago. To say that it doesn't have an affect on Roach's abilities as a coach/trainer would just be sugar coated ignorance.

    Is it any different from Hatton leaving his old trainer, saying his illness is slowing him down?

    Floyd making noises about leaving Unca' Roger because his illness is slowing him down?

    "It's hard to see him older and getting worse. I wish him the best. Freddie, with the Parkinson's disease, he was struggling with instructions and couldn't move as well."

    I see nothing wrong with this statement, he's being realistic :huh

    He's just being a dick and trying to get attention. He's been a ***** throughout the whole split between him and Roach but to be honest I actually think the writting was on the wall after the peterson fight when he started showing up to other trainer's gyms to work on inside fighting and all that ****. He's been wanted to learn more for a long time and I can't blame him for feeling like he stalled out with Freddy Roach...cause he kinda did.

    Parkinson's has nothing to do with that fragile, delicate, brittle chin that keeps getting tapped and resulting in him getting knocked out bad.

    Khan epitomises the phrase "chin raped".

    have you read what khan said, in no way did AK blame Roach for his parkinsons, nor did he blame roach
