Khan dumps Harrison

I remember the last time Freddie Roach decided to "train" one of our fighters he missed his boy take the whipping of a lifetime from Michael Gomez. Unless Khan is going to base himself in the States I just can't see how one of those guys could devote enough of their time to Khan for it to be beneficial.

 

Should have done it a long time ago. He has not progressed as much as he should have and still needs to learn a lot.

 

it won't work unless he is US based i cannot see any top american coachs coming over here everytime -just wnt happen unless he shows the trainers ££$$$$

 

Oliver is a quality trainer, proof that Khan is getting above his station? Either way whoever takes over better teach him to infight because at the mo' its the weakest part of his game.

 

Who do you think he should go to then Jeff to improve the other weaker part of his game?

 

Buddy Mcgirt would be my choice, he did a fantastic job with Gatti and got his long and medium range boxing so sharp that he rarely had to infight.

Roach I think is not suitable.... He's more of a training assistant then a trainer in a sense that the guys he trains are all very experianced.

Emanual Steward has had too many bad nights at the office in recent years.

Floyd Mayweather snr seems the obvious choice should Khan wish to crack the american scene. Floyd jnrs infighting is superb and if snr taught jnr that then Khan might pick up something as well. Also with Floyd you have the Golden Boy connection.

So promotionally/financially i'd say Floyd but Mcgirt stylistically would be more suitable IMO. Either way Khan is going to the US.

 

Harrison has taken him as far as he can go. The mayweather can teach him defense, a major aspect of the game khan is lacking. Apparently Khan spared with Mayweather Jnr a few weeks ago in vegas, maybe roger saw something he liked.

He still fights exactly the same as he did against Kindelin

 

Floyd Mayweather is trained by his uncle Jeff Mayweather and not by Floyd Senior.

 

I predicted this on the British forum a few weeks ago.

Khan's that sort of guy, I knew he'd seek a big named trainer.

 

Senior taught Mayweather everything he knows though.

 

Not if you listen to floyd.

 

lol... Thanks Genius... Its actually Uncle Roger who trains Floyd Mayweather jnr. Snr trains De La Hoya. Snr trained jnr throughout his amateur career where he learned everything he does today.

 

:good you did - good call.

 

thats a very harsh comment agaisnt Amir as well Jeff. seems you critasice Khan at every oppurtunity latley. Plenty of fighters move on from trainers its part of boxing. Macklin left Graham a few weeks ago to improve his career, not cos he got to big for his boots
