By Johnny Benz, Doghouse Boxing. - Recently Amir Khan fired Freddie Roach as his trainer. Khan cited that he felt he was neglected and held back under the tutelage of Roach.
Quoted
recently by the Daily Star (A UK based publication), Roach had some parting words for Khan.
Roach stated: "I like Amir but they should keep him away from punchers."
Honestly, I think Roach held back and was too kind with his parting shot.
Take that as you like... but let's be honest with ourselves and agree with Roach's assessment. I do not hate Khan, but he has never really impressed me. I always felt most of his appeal was all just media hype... I've never been able to absorb the media facination with Khan or how weak his chin can be. I am not trying to be mean, but rather than blame Roach for his shortcomings, Khan should take a look in the mirror.
