    Roach told him to move and hold in corner between rounds, Khan went out and tried to show he could take it. He couldn't. He is now an official ungrateful shithead.

    This is the most disturbing part of the article:

    Khan fingered referee Joe Cooper and the three judges before settling on the so-called "Mystery Man," Mustafa Ameen.
    :lol:

    You guys need to get off your sensitive chair.

    Did you watch the Judah fight? Who was having to shout instructions at Amir? That's right Ariza was - since Roach was unable to. People are reading too deep into this sh*t.

    I did read what he said and I seem to remember him saying that his disease is worse and that he thinks that may be affecting the amount of time he can spend with his fighters. Basically it wasn't a "the guy is a bad trainer because he's got parkinsons" statement. It was s "he's maxed out and having a progressively worsening neuro-degenerative disease is contributing to that".....Not the most ridiculous thing to say ever. But if you say it the right way you can accomplish exactly what he has done, which is get a lot of people talking about it without any of them being able to agree on exactly what he meant. I.e. I left Freddy cause he has Parkinsons vs I wish Freddy the best but he didn't have the time for me....see what I mean? Anyways Khan's made many statements about his reasons for leaving freddy but my main point is there is no coincidence that the first time he inserts Parkinsons into the equation is shortly before a comeback fight. That's a what I like to call a "pocket *****" move.

    He's not blaming Roach's parkinsons, you moron. That quote is wrong and taken out of context. Here it is in full:

    "We all know he's a great trainer, but I changed because I needed someone who's going to spend 100 percent time with me," Khan said. "I need to be more selfish. I'm in this position now when I know I can't make any mistakes. ... With Freddie, it would have been very hard right now, having Manny in his camp, also Chavez, and I think he's training Victor Ortiz, so it's a lot of people."

    "Freddie's illness, it's very hard to see him as he's getting older," Khan said.

    I just believe that I need someone who is going to work me that bit harder and get the best out of me."


    http://sports.inquirer.net/69012/amir-khan-says-hes-thriving-after-roach-split


    And here are his tweets clarifying his comments:

    @AmirKingKhan: Hey guys I didn't say @FreddieRoach is a bad trainer, he's 1 of the best out there and took my career to a high winning 2 world titles.

    @AmirKingKhan: I blame myself for the losses in my career. Not blaming @FreddieRoach or anyone. I just needed a change.


    So I ask, where is Khan blaming Roach's disease for his loss?

    most of ESB cannot read that is what has been learn't today.

    They are just as bad as the media at taking crap out of context and making sh*t up and seem bad ... problem is they don't realise they're doing it unlike the media.

    Khan is too big of an idiot to think like that. Everyone has been talking about Freddie's Parkinson's - it is clearly getting worse. How many times has khan said he takes full blame for his loss. Have you thought that he may not think Roach is a bad coach, but he simply wants a change.

    'Khan blames Roach's parkinsons. Has he no shame?' - that is a terrible title, It's just not you, Many others just reading that and hating on Khan for something he didn't do.

    Roach made it clear many times that he doesn't want Khan to exchange when he can't afford to do so, yet Khan goes on and exchanges to prove twitter ******s wrong. This is a shameless excuse from Khan, he makes the mistakes in the ring, not Roach.

    Freddy Roach was moving around the ring better than the punching bags Pacquiao had been dominating. When it came fightnight, it was easy for Manny.


    Pacquia's last two or three opponents move around the ring better than Roach, so it must be true Roach is to blame! :nut
