the ref called it a knockdown so officially its a knockdown!
unoffically he got his foot caught in thje ropes hit the ground with one glove then instantly bounced up and threw a 1-2 before the ref started counting!Comment

He was off balance, the punch didnt even land! Also i think he mite have got his foot caught in the ropes plus he said after the fight that the ref even said sorry for calling it a kd!Comment

Khan looked like he improved alot for the first 3 rounds. Boxed smart and was landing his combos and beating him to the punch all the time.
After 3-4 rounds Khan got hit by every right hand Rachid Drilzane threw, his defence was poor and was lucky that drilzane didnt knock him out. Good job drilzane wasnt a heavy hitter.Comment

I think Khan wont go as far as everyone thought based on what i saw last night, sure he was fast and landed a lot of punches but he has very little power and still has a lacking defense.Comment
