Khan is running out of people on earth to blame for his failings.

Andre Ward seems satisfied with Hunter's work, but Khan... No, he needs a reality mittologist or nothing!

I'm not an ex Olympic silver medilist or world champ but maybe he has hired both for different aspects of his training

Mittologist? Does that mean pseudo-trainer?

Here's my take. For trainers, doing hours and hours on the pads with fighters is the highway to ruined joints (just ask Billy G) and sweaty clothes, it's also not always the ideal position to spot errors. Khan will have got the 'Coach' in on the cheap, if not for free, as it's great publicity for this guy and sure fire way to have his services booked up in the future. Hunter will be on the same take and have to do less physical work. Sounds good to me.

My thoughts exactly, a lot of trainers have bad elbows and hands from holding pads and try to do it as little as possible. I'm sure if Hunter had an issue with this he would have said something before now. Don't read too much into what is basically a press release from Alexander's camp.

The lad has zero business at 147lb after the Diaz fight proved. He was ready for the taking at the final bell, completely out on his feet.

Devon will absolutely flatten him.

Did the Diaz fight prove that? Wasn't it made at 10st 3lb. Maybe he was tight at that weight?
After all, he was a lightweight when he was 16 and 17, moving up two divisions from the ages 17-27 is not exactly a Pacquiao style rise.
Anyway, the problem with Khan is Hunter's confusing instructions, not the weight.

He was a lightweight at 22 and then moved up to fight Kotelnik, he's listed as 5'8 1/2", if he's having trouble making 10st let alone 10st 3lbs, he's doing something wrong.

He was a lightweight at the Olympics and at the 2003 World Juniors (Gold Medal), he was a lightweight for years and years and has really filled out, he's wide shouldered and well muscled, putting a stone on in weight from the age of around 15 years old in a decade is not too bad :OhYes:
