Roach: Khan can become next superstar

FREDDIE ROACH predicts Amir Khan will become boxing’s next superstar by emulating the popularity of Manny Pacquiao.

Khan became unified world light-welterweight champion when he demolished respected American Zab Judah inside five rounds at the Mandalay Bay Events Centre early yesterday morning.

Hall of Fame trainer Roach believes the 24-year-old has the attributes to emerge as the sport’s dominant personality.
