*LATE BELL* in Kahn-Kristjansen!

[squealpiggy]

Amir Khan's opponents have an average ko quote around 5,5 if you subtract the tkos and the guys coming from lower weights you are probably around 2. If he has more than wet paper as a chin I would wonder.

Why would you subtract TKOs? There's this myth that if a guy isn't counted out it's a lesser victory.

Not this one though in fairness,

Krist just wanted to go home, have a hot chocolate and warm himself infront of the fire place.

He was overmatched hardcore.

I wouldn't say 'overmatched hardcore'. He was a good opponent at this stage of Khans career. Martin did land a few good right hands and if he carried a little more pop would've been a bigger concern for Khan.

Khan now needs to go back into the gym 'cause there were a few good lessons to be learned in this fight.

yeah ssshtoopid.

David Haye a massive puncher would have like 4 KO's

Im sure there are millions of ridiculous examples.

You know whats worse than a KO, what Happend to Derry Matthews last nights.

Knocked down twice to the body, three times to the head, lol.

Oh yeah man, I'm not dis*****g that for a second. I'm just picking on the officiating bias.

On another note, the late hits from Kahn. I think they were more a result of Kahn being so bothered by Martin's he was glad to have him down. The penalty was disgrace***...because there was none. A point, or Vaan could have given Martin 30-60 secs to recover.

We all know what happened in Jones-Griffin.

Dont know what the **** head poster is on about. There was nothing wrong with the fight overall. The ref was on the ball and gave the Dane ample time to recover after Khan's illegal punch during the first knock down. In fact it was more than amle time. Overall, the Dane was all over the place and the stoppage was perfect. Vann is a legend of the boxing ring. This is the man who officiating was top notch during the Earl-Katsidis fight.

He did well in spurts.

But he lost every round. So the fight was lost for him at the stage of the knockout.

He was clever enough. I don't want to sound disrespectful to the guy. I just think Khan needs his stellar test soon, considering he is so big at the weight.

It was about 6 seconds. That's not ample time to recover if you take a punch to the head while ur on ur knees.

Kahn needs to fight kessler next

Kahn needs to fight kessler next

I think a better fight would be to see the fast Khan against the slow Valuev TBH.

I raised this earlier in a different thread, but I thought I should make a seperate thread so every1 cld give an opinion on it. After Martin went down for the second time, the screen showed 10 seconds on the clock.

During the broadcast, I noticed that the round was allowed go on beyond 10 seconds.

Luckily I'd taped the fight for a relative, I just checked it there. I counted slowly from that point and I counted 13 at the very least. The important thing is the dane was still standing at the end of the 10 seconds.

The Bell sounded as soon as he was on the floor for the final team.

Anybody have any thoughts on this?

I noticed.. but I figured since the bell handn't rang, that I misread the time..

what did It matter??.. Khan was in with another undersized feather fist.. there was only ever going to be one outcome..
