A little throwback:
And promoter Eddie Hearn said: “Khan’s team put him in a dangerous position that could have affected his health."

After last night:
That gif :lol1: Holding on to whatever you can.
Top of his career=getting demolished in 5 rounds for millions after going on a run of Dan, Gavin & Bizier at your own weight.
Khan got demolished. Literally.
Brook held his own, and at that against a better fighter.
Any mismatched fight is dangerous to the underdog in it. But why only concerned with Brook's well being? What about countless cab drivers who only get paid $10K to $50K just to make a Haymon fighter look good? At least, Brook got paid $5 million.
Sooner of later someone is going to get sued for these mismatched fights.
Khan is. Brook is at the top of his career. His stock has never been higher.

No because of this
After 4th, Roy Jones watched Brook in corner & told me "Brook giving up." Corner stopped prematurely to put responsibility on them #GGGBrook
It was probably agreed before hand if the going got tough to pull out or as ATG Roy said give up.
I said the fight need to be stopped 20 secs before his corner came unto the ring, i even think they should have stopped it earlier. At the beginning of the 5th round Kell looked like he doesn't want to be in there anymore. You can tell when a boxer has had enough but their ego would keep them going, for me Brook took a lot more damage to his body, I bet you he would be pissing blood for weeks. His eye socket is probably the least damage he took on saturday night.
Gennady is a freak. He looked less than 50% of his usual self throwing lazy arm punches and still broke the guys eye socket in 2 rounds.
As for khan/brook they both knew what they were getting into. The situation was more dangerous for brook I guess who has spent his career on warmups then went straight to the guillotine. Khan has already been in there with legends so it seemed like he had a better chance. But his crap defense cannot be trained away.

At the end of the day Brook wanted Golovkin. And he got him.
That's the nature of the beast.
At the end of the day, Khan has been running from Brook for years.
His fanboys project their girly insecurities through Brook to somehow cover it up. It's really pathetic :lol1:
You have lost ya marbles
Brooks won't be in the ring for another 9 months, he may never heal properly, that injury might occur again
possible nerve damage, damage to his facial symmetry
brook said he could see 4 GGG's in there
khan took one shot and went to sleep, and woke up and was ok
brook will have to have 2 operations
Listen, Brook's broken bone for 1 wasn't that bad. He was OK. 2, being knocked clean out can have severe mental and physical damage to your brain and health.
If you think losing your conscious and preventing oxygen from reaching your brain properly is better than getting a broken bone, you just simply don't know what you're talking about. The cell death occurring when getting knocked out is not a joke. It is not only potentially career ending, but life threatening in many ways.
To Khan's credit, he's taking it well. He's mentally strong enough to overcome KOs which in some ways is a good thing I suppose. Some fighters are never the same after getting cleaned out like that.
What if he lost his eye? What if?
If Brook's face was his defense like a margarito, then his career could have been in trouble. This is obviously one of the reasons he was pulled out and his injury wasn't bad enough to reach that stage.
But rightfully, they didn't take that risk.

But, but Doctor Laced owns all seasons of House on Blu ray?
Rather a broken orbital and still having all your senses than being removed from your conscious for minutes.
