This is the same guy who said he himself could beat Floyd Mayweather

He couldn't be saying this because he is now training with Freddie Roach? No that couldn't be...

The way his Chin turns too breadsticks,do you think Khan actually has any idea that he is auditioning for his future occupation,I don't think he'll have to fear looking to tough & being sent from his sparring partner duties though

On a recent interview,he accused the trainer of intentionally hitting him and not holding back.while Freddie Roach was quoted 'I was mimicking a left hook and he was supposed to duck under it.he was so tall I hit him right on his chin.and I really felt I cracked it the first time,you know like when you crack an egg.I was worried about my fighter.he was very brave though.he went right back up.but he was dancin like an old lady.i knew he's still hurt.so this time I was holding back on him,,you know just like when I train the women boxers here.but i was surprised I still knocked the f*ck out him when I (accidentally) hit him again...I guess he just had a bad day.he was a tough son of a gun though.I honestly think he can last for a couple of more rounds in his next fight.'

another rumor is that Freddie Roach is considering to come back out of retirement.he was reportedly very impressed of himself after his 1 round devastation of Amir Khan.Dogshitboxing caught up with him at the Wild Card Gym to confirm the rumors;

Dogshitboxing: Freddie,,how you doing?

Roach: We're doin' great..I'm good.I'm a little winded from Manny's bodyshot but I've never felt better before.I felt like I'm a year younger.

Dogshitboxing: After the allegedly knockout of Amir Khan,there were speculations that you'll come out of retirement.Is it true?

Roach: Yeah I was thinking about it.I realized I got a few more fights left in me.You know..every retired boxer has that feeling from time to time.But this time it's a lot different.I mean...when I hit him with my left hand and i saw him danced like an old lady,for a while I thought I was Manny Pacquiao.I loved it.And yes I'll fight again.

Dogshitboxing: Wow.So it's really true.What did you see in you against Amir Khan that made you think you can still fight.

Roach: Well I just knocked the shiit out of him.But I knew he was a tough kid.He got knocked out once in 18 fights and I knew he wasn't a 100% on that fight.He just had a bad day against me.He'll come back.I liked him a lot. He made me realized that Parkinson's isn't much of a big deal.

Dogshitboxing: How can you say he's not in great shape against Prescott?

Roach: He told me. He said he was having hiccups when the fight started.He said it bothered him a lot. I believed him.

Dogshitboxing: Really.That's very unfortunate. So who do you plan to fight in your 1st comeback fight?

Roach: Well..there is a lot out there. I think I can fight as a lightweight.It's a very competitive division.And since Manny went up in weight,I liked it even better. I'll love to have a rematch with Amir Khan. And if Manny beats Oscar which by the way I don't think is gonna happen,I can fight Oscar. That would be the 'Dream Match II'. But if Oscar chose to retire...I'll be glad to have a trilogy with Amir Khan.

Dogshitboxing: It seems 2009 will be a great year for boxing.Any message to your fans?

Roach: Yes.I wanna thank you all for continually supporting me,Manny and the Wild Card Gym even if you can't understand a single word I say. And to all retired boxers who suffer from Parkinson's Disease..I advice you to fight Amir Khan. It is the greatest therapy. We can still pull the trigger.

Dogshitboxing: Nice.One last question Freddie. Who's gonna be your trainer for your fights?

Roach: I'd love Bernard Hopkins to be my trainer.And teach me some of those old man's moves.But i'll make it sure I won't go to the wrong corner(laughs)..While I'm considering to hire Bob Arum and Amir Khan as sparring partners. I love that kid. Or maybe I can have some rounds with a real hard hitter..Like a Paulie Malignaggi.I heard he too likes to test his power against Amir's iron chin.

Dogshitboxing: Thanks Freddie and good luck in Dec. 6 and to your planned comeback. We're looking forward for your fights.

Roach: It's a pleasure.

On a more serious note who would be a better guy to SPAR against then Amir Khan to mimic Oscar, same height, almost identical basics. Same movement, similar jab, etc, etc. Are people forgetting that this kid beat one of the best cuban fighters ever in this format? Or that he got silver in the olympic only because of that Cuban? In a pro fight I agree Khan is tofu, but put him into headgear and soft gloves and I say he beats the majority of the current belt holders in a sparring session.
