    He needs all the help he can get with that but I'm not sure what Manny will get out of it?

    margarito and sotto were sparring partners for elite fighters, who knows maybe khan can end up like margarito and sotto. Two in your face strong consistent seek and destroy machine.

    Khan doesn't have the chin for that style, he needs to work on defense, defense and defense.

    yea your right he doesnt, but im just saying khan still can turn into something special and khan imo made the right move coming to the wild card gym.

    I agree Khan has some natural gifts that Roach could turn into something special. If he can tighten up that defense he could be a contender at 135, unfortunately for him though it is one of the strongest divisions in boxing at the moment.

    So true, I can't see him improving to the point his chin wont be an issue unless he becomes an exact copy of Floyd, which he wont.

    mmm... agreed. Kahn is so young. He has time to progress. But I also agree that I don't know what Manny is going to get out of this. But I guess Vargas used to use Peter Manfredo as a sparring partner too soooo....

    Amir is as tall as Hoya... Amir's head will be a good target to practice... PAC getting used with a head target that high...

    Hope that head will not fall to 0 inches from the floor... Or else Amir will help hype the fight with this headline;

    "Amir Khan knocked down in sparring by Pacquiao"

    Cotto has done well with a bad chin so did Patterson and Wlad. All those guys have a very poor chin but never got hurt with a jab and stunned by guys two weights below.

    Amir has heart so i cant see him pulling a Cotto so thats a tick in the right box cant really see him taking knees. Presscot dropped him real heavy and he shot right up. Just that chin is the worst ive ever seen.

    Must not have a lot of fluid in the brain stem that cushions blows to the head.

    Perhaps Manny will just use it as practice for slipping and light countering.
