Barrera: "They Should Have Stopped it in The First"

[letsgobrady]

I guarantee if Barrera didn't get cut until the 5th, and the ref stopped it in the tenth, everybody would claim he could have went on.

People are just dumb. Barrera wanted to carry on, and now he and his fans have to live with the decision.

barrera carried on because he did not want to lose if he would of said he wanted to stop the fight would of been a loss instead of a no contest

Barrera wasn't going to quit, I give him props for that. The officials had four rounds to stop the fight, it was total bull****.
The point is if they were going to stop the fight it should have been in the first, since they didn't it shouldn't have had been stopped at all. Only four rounds passed anything could have happened.

I'm sorry, but that really is crap. It's not 'funny' in the least; it's not remotely unusual for a doctor to let it go the first time it is referred to him but to stop it (whether the fighter wants it or not) the second time. When a doctor is referred to a second time again it usually IS in the next round or shortly afterwards. When has anyone ever seen a doctor look at an injury in the fourth, let it go, have it referred to him again six rounds later and THEN stop it? It just doesn't happen.. in the UK, US or anywhere else.

barrera' s cut is one of the worst if not the worst i have ever seen and if the fight was in the u.s you can be sure that the fight does not go to the 5th

he seemed perfectly fine after he realized the 5th round would be the last. he tried his best to ko khan but khan was always out of range. cut or no cut, Khan would have beaten barrera.

And why might it be that Barrera was having trouble finding his range? Could it have had anything to do that he had no depth perception because he only had one eye?

[Zocalo]

I pretty much doubt that the fight would not have gone to the 5th round if Khan got a cut like MAB did in the 1st round. It would have been called off in the 1st round.

Indeed, although I think Khan can fight Prescott again now and win. He definitely isn't ready yet for the elite of the division though, he will be in a few fights' time if he keeps improving.

Khan ever beating Prescott is simply unrealistic. Khan could have the skills and the defense of Pernell Whitaker, and he would still lose. You can't go a whole fight without getting tagged, and Khans chin simply isnt good enough to handle getting tagged by a puncher like Prescott.

Hes still got the same crappy chin, that will never change. He simply can't take what Prescott has to offer. In case you forgot, Prescott HURT Khan with a jab. If you are going to get hurt by jabs, you are in serious trouble.

Barrera doesn't have it anymore, he needs to retire for good. Luckily for him the referee stopped the fight or else he's ass will taste the canvas all over again like what Pacquiao did to him before.

errmmm... no.

Barrera still has some fight in him and if you watch the first minute and a half of the fight, you can see that. Judging either Khan or Barrera from last night is pretty much impossible because of what happened. But I know for certain Khan would NOT have KO'd Barrera, even with the cut..

[Memeori]

Even though Barrera showed signs of being a sore loser saying that they should of stopped it earlier, though he had the chance in round 4 I believe to throw the fight into a NC, I do feel sorry for him because has a legit loss from something so unfortunate.

I feel for Barrera.

Agree with you. Barrera does not go down easily, and I don't believe Khan hits hard enough to put him on the canvas for a 10 count.
