Once he found out that Amir was in cahooots with Pacquiao and the merry roiding men of Team Pacquiao---he knew it was time to retire...no place for a quality journeyman to continue in a sport filled with cheats.

Khan wasnt in the Wild Card Gym when he fought ***an.

All this talk of Khan, Pacquiao etc all being on juice is damaging boxing. Whether you know it or not you are damaging boxing by spreading malicious dangerous unfounded rumours like that without any proof. Think before you talk please.

Anyway this has nothing to do with ***an - a great pro and servant to boxing. Loved the fight game more than many fans even do and will be missed off the Irish pro scene, I am just glad he is not lost to boxing.

Amir Khan Training With Freddie Roach Prior To Bout With ***an

Slapbangwhallop....I don't know where you got your information about Amir Khan not training with Freddie Roach prior to his bout with Oisin ***an, but I know for a fact that you are 100% dead wrong I went out to Los Angeles back in November of 2008 to attend the World Boxing Hall OF Fame induction ceremonies being held at the Los Anglese Marriott Hotel. Lennox Lewis, Marvin Johnson, Greg Haugen, cutman Miguel Diaz and Alberto Reyes were all inducted. My group which included six time world champ, Emile Griffith, visited the Wild Card Boxing Club in Hollywood, California. We stayed for several hours watching Manny Pacquiao train for his up and coming fight with Oscar De La Hoya. James Moore was training for his bout with Yuri Foreman and Amir Khan and British boxer Ashley Theophane were also training with Freddie at the time. This is just to set the record straight.
