Amir can do no right. After every fight it's "he'll get knocked out" , 'I can't wait to see him get knocked out", "he'll lose again a big time puncher".. He obviously has a lot of holes in his game, not every 21 year old are perfect. like someone else said, under a new trainer, he'll become much more polished.

But we all know warren wouldnt do that
p.s yeah it was a fair stoppage in my eyes, gomez was hurt and i didnt see much changing if the fight continued. sporadic success wouldnt have stopped him getting seriously hurt
In America, he would be unknown. Way too much attention for a silver medallist and pro prospect. The hype probably helped killed the prospects slim prospects. Same as fat useless **** eyed Wayne Rooney. England is good at making a big deal out of raw talent and then ruining it. Shrek would have been better developing his own game at Everton, and concentrating more on finishing. UK need to make their stars earn their reps.

early stoppage
Slightly early stoppage, but whatever. Gomez caught khan afew times with big punches and almost knocked khan down. If khan serioulsy thinks he can beat pacman and cotto, hes living in a ****ing dream world !Last edited by BRAVE-HEART; 06-23-2008, 01:38 AM.

The stoppage was a bit too quick, however, had the referee allowed another ten seconds he would have been stopping the fight anyway. Gomez was a couple of shots away from going when it was stopped.
Once again the fight pointed to Khan's weaknesses and not his strengths. He's nowhere near becoming a champion. Warren's show isn't going to last.

I really hope Amir signs up roger mayweather to train him, he needs to improve his defense and roger is the man who would be able to help him the most

It was a good fight and I got really into it. I was cheering on Gomez but in the end Khan was far too quick for him to handle.
I feared the worst when Gomez was knocked down after about 30 seconds but credit to him, he got up and managed to land some good shots on Khan.
Gomez did well when he got really close to Khan and forced him back on the ropes, hitting him with body shots and then letting fly with the hook but he seemed to tire going into Round 5. When he stood off Khan he was getting hit with 6/7/8 hit combos and I was amazed he managed to stay up at one point when he was taking a load of hits to the face.
Khan really needs to sort out his defence before he goes for a title.
