i wasnt expecting it to get st first round
but he did well

Good post sanchez about sums it up really. Who nows wat wud have happend in the second half of the fight!!

Summing it up would have been brief, Sanchez wrote an essay on the subject (decent one though)

Hey, thanks for reading my long-ass post. Ha ha. I'm wound up and got it going this morning.

To briefly sum it up, we all seen fights were one guy is dominating and then pow!, a shot or flurry by the other guy ends it. I don't think people would have been that shocked if that happened yesterday. But, alas, it didn't.

No way MAB was winning that night. only way MAB would have won was if they let him use a bat...

There's no way of knowing. But just from lookin at how he performed with the cut, that headmovement, and the brief moments where Barrera would squint with blood in his eye and dive in an attempt at mounting an offense, and it wasn't like he was throwing dumb punches even then...you take the cut away and it's obvious you have a completely different fight. But that's what cuts do, they effect you're performance. But that type of **** just happens. It was just bad luck for Marco.

Hard to be sure but from what we saw, it looks like Khan would have got the win regardless. Although it should have been a no contest this time

U werent rockin a fake moustache, poncho and a Sombrero were u Tuggers? lol showed some UK Barrera fans in the crowd all Mexicaned up!

Haha. No but they were right next to me. Noisy bastards they were

Speed was too much for Barrera before the clash of heads.

Khan was on his way to frustrate MAB. While I don't think Khan has the power to KO MAB it was probably heading to a UD if it went 12.

[Abstraction]

Cut did not help, but Khan was looking good all the way

[No*Ordinary*Joe]

How the hell can u say khan wud have won without the cut??????
so he lookeed ont op b4 the cut, yes, but there was another 11 rounds to go, kahn was never gonna nock mob out, so the fight prob wud have gone till the end, so in the 10th or 11 or12th wen khan slowes down, How does anyone now if mob Nocks him out??
if prescott can, MOB carnt?

Its ******, Lets use an example like Calzaghe Kessler, if the fight got stopped from a bad cut in the 5th, you wud say kessler was on top he wud have won, I dnt think so.
MOB might have had a gameplan, might have chaged tactics, like calzaghe did, But with a cut that size that early one, how could he, The only way u will now is a rematch.
