Team Roach code cracked?

[Boxer4life]

Last night fight i noticed Khan comes in alot like pacqiou, of course not quite as good but same principle. Lamont gave him trouble because of great footwork, amazing head movement and counters, but after a few rounds lamont started chasing him, and thats when the fight got more "competitive" if you will, lamont would win on the inside but khan was great on the in and out, much like pacqiou. Point being lamont would have done better if he stuck to the gameplan, maybe even knocked khan out. I have noticed the same thing with pacqiou, if a guy has footwork and head movement, it makes it very hard to land his 3-11 punch combos, and look impressive, or do damage. I think its the solution to pacman and khan, both should stay away from floyd, kos and tkos written all over those fights.

It must be part of the training at the Wildcard Gym to make fighters put their arms up in the air like an idiot after they have been punched in the face. Pacquiao does it, and now Khan is doing it too. What is the point of it?

yeah i dont get it either, pacqiou does it to hype himself up, perhaps shake it off, khan is just being a poor mini me

[Manos de Piedra]

The code is to move your head, use a little footwork and counter. Both Pac and khan can't fight on the inside they just cover up but khan is completely clueless when he gets close.

Who has the better chance against floyd ? khan or pacman and how do you think a khan vs pacman who end up?

I def thing pacman, khan will get koed easy!!! maybe even 2nd round, pacqiou is much better at being pacqiou with a much better chin, khan is becoming a poor pacman impression, and pacqiou will ko him, i dont think he should be in the discussion with floyd or manny

.....And we finally see why Wlad left Freddy saying "He tried to turn me into a 6'7 Mike Tyson".

Roach's style has its pros and "Khans" . But everyone's style is like that to one extent or another.

Is McEwan still with Roach? If so...McEwan, Linares and Khan have all lost in recent months, Pacquiao probably should have lost and Kavanagh was uber lucky last night as well O_O

[JT Rock]

All trainers go through their ups and downs. Steward had a rough patch for a while. But he is an atg trainer, just like Roach just hit a pothole.

The fighters have to do the fighting. The same thing sprung to my mind too initially with Linares, PAC and now Kahn. But his guys have talent and are smart and tough so I'm sure they will hit stride again. Just stay away from Mayweather :-P

...One would assume after having seen these shortcomings Floyd would be jumping at the chance to fight Pacquiao, but alas Floyd still holds out. Why?


Perhaps because Pac has to make a lot of mistakes and Floyd just has to make one?

"Floyd still holds out"?!!! Let me take a wild guess...you are a PAC fan. Floyd has stated he wants the fight in May. Yet Manny's daddy Bob Arum is doing his best to derail it.

I don't care one way or another, as a boxing fan I just want to see the fight!

I would like to see Mayweather get KO'd eventually.....I don't care who does it. I'm not a "Pactard" though.

I think we all want to see this fight. It's easy to put the blame only on one party...but it takes two to tango. And clearly Arum is trying to squirm out of this fight in May. As far as someone KOing Mayweather...it's not going to be Pac
