Surely this fight can't go ahead.

I really hope it doesn't,but hey money talks i'm afraid

when roach first said it before the kotelnik fight i was thinking he must be losing it hes usualy the 1 telling fighters to retire not to come out and take a severe beating against a much larger man

After the Pacman wipeout he was telling Hatton to retire "unless he wants to end up like me" he said and now he's allegedly wanting a fighter who hasn't fought for two years and is almost a decade past his best to use as a sacrificial lamb for his own fighter.

Its disgusting.

I lost a lot of respect for Roach after reading his comments in yesterdays Boxing Monthly.

Isn't Morales about 200lbs now??

He should rematch Prescott.

Since when has losing a fight meant you can't fight for the world title,holyfield springs to mind,it's all about money these days so i think it would sell very well

i like the way you missed some of my quote off
khan is now a divison above prescott, prescott will be given some comeback fights
also khan is the name fighter so why would khan fight him?

I dont think it will it would be a joke if it did he hasnt fought for a while he doesnt deserve a title shot I hope Khan goes for a competitive fight

Lets face it....Roach is one of the best trainers around, but is also a hypocritical ar*e.

Calls for fighters to retire lest they end up permanently damaged, but apparenly doesn't mind feeding a badly faded Morales to Khan. If any fighter should stay retired its Erik Morales. He certainly shouldn't be facing a young lion like Khan for a title in a weightclass way above where he was prime. Shame on Roach for calling for this sh*t.
