    I'm tempted to say Khan, but we won't truly know how much he has improved until he meets a guy who can test his defence. You can tell it's much better than before, but I'd like to know how it will cope against the relentless power of a Maidana, and the smart counters of an Alexander.

    As it stands now, I've not got too much confidence in it. Give it 12/18 months, then I'd be confident in his ability to beat the likes of Alexander and Bradley.

    Oscar De la Hoya went through many different trainers and picked up something valuable with each one

    George Foreman worked with Angelo Dundee in his later career which helped him shorten up his punches ala the Micheal Moorer KO

    Thorrance was an assistant to Eddie Futch.
    Hes one of the nice guys in the business, a little too laid back, but he knows his stuff like Roach does.
