Roach Rejects Maidana, Wants Amir Khan To Vacate - Boxing News
Why the hate on Roach? It's a systematic problem with the sport, but it is by no means solely Roach. Look at the way Mayweather has chosen his fighters in recent years. Plus, Khan's father and Frank Warren have more sway in the camp than Roach and moreso Khan is able to make his own decisions.

I want to see Khan fight a puncher as much as I want to see Mayweather fight a legit welterweight, but the thing going for Khan is that he is only 22 years old. He'll have to fight a puncher at some point in his career.
