Okay guys here's a youtube video of round one (and two).

I'd like someone to show me where Khan was hurting Barerra before got cut (which was the ONLY time he took a step back from Khan).

Anybody have a reply to this?

[S.G.]

The fight was a big thing for both parties.

For Khan, it was an opportunity to show the world if he had the ability to stand up to someone who knows the ring like the back of his hand.

For Barerra it was an opportunity to show the world that he can still fight.

However NEITHER fighter was able to prove ANYTHING AT ALL!

NOTHING!

We saw nothing in that fight. Okay yes was saw hand speed, but Khan has had that since forever. What's new that we didn't know? Seriously, ask yourselves some questions here when we look at the outcome of the fight.

Did Khan break Barerra down till he couldn't hold his hands up any longer and the ref had to stop the fight? No.

Did Khan beat Barerra so bad he was knocked out? No.

Did Khan consistently hurt Barerra at any time in the fight? No. (Even the commentators who thought Khan hurt Barerra had to correct themselves and say it was the clash that Barerra was wincing over).

Did Khan beat Barerras face so bad he got a serious cut that ended the fight? No.

So someone tell me what Khan achieved that is so monumental? The fight was a load of ****. NO REAL boxing fan should be happy about the way that fight went, only fanboys, which is what you'd expect. Can you imagine what people would say if it was Khan who got that cut? They would have NEVER let it go on for 5 rounds.

Now...to those who say the cut meant nothing because Khan was dominating Barerra etc.

When the ref/doc tells you they might stop the fight because of a cut you got from a clash of heads in round ONE, where do you go from there? Where does your strategy go?

Barerra was the smaller, shorter armed guy who really NEEDED to get inside to get to work on Khan. When you have a cut that is ALREADY so bad that the fight could be stopped, getting inside is suicide.

You cant go in first with your head because any rub/knock on a glove/arm/chest could **** your cut up even more and with the gash that Barerra had, getting inside would've shortened the time he had in the ring even more. (You can see evidence of this at the time when the fight was actually stopped as barerra had his head inside and was in khans arms. When he emerged with blood all over his face, the ref became weary and called him over to the doc and the fight was stopped.)

Instead he opted to try and stay outside and box/potshot from the outside against a faster, longer armed, taller opponent..............all with only his right eye to see out of for 90% of the fight......

Noone should be surprised that it didn't work .

The thing that really sickens me, is not the fighters (you can't blame either boxer for the cut that stopped the fight), but the commentators and peoples attitude towards it.

They were talking like Khan pulled off a really big win. Yes he looked good (against someone with one eye for 90% of the time lol), but what part of that contributed to his win? Not one part of his effort in training, or in the ring contributed to it.

It sickens me that people are looking at this like Khan pulled a number on Barerra. I'm hardly a big fan of either fighter (so don't bother with the sour g****s arguement), but I knew there was potential for a real big fight and I was extremely excited about viewing it, but it never happened.

If I was Khan, there's no way I'd be fully satisfied with that win.

As a boxer, there's no way I'd be fully satisfied with that win.

As a boxing fan, there's no way I'd be fully satisfied with that win, and I'm not.

That is all.

Wow lots of words lol.

on point post

however, like i said before, Khan did look better at face value, and has a scalp for the resume

[yeykax]

WTF!!! did Khan referee the fight? he did what he had to do,and in all honesty looked good while doing it.I dont particularly like khan,but I respect the way he has made the neccesary adjustments to come back from his ko loss,and yet muppets like you still **** on him.It is not his fault the way the fight ended,or the way it panned out after the cut,but he still had a job to do.What was he supposed to do?Have a word with the ref and ask him to stop it? get a fuqqing clue!

Well said the young blood did what he had to do.What he was supposed to do stop fighting because Barrera was cut???Yea write and cut or no cut i believe Khan would had won anyways!!well said!!

Oh for the love of............

Do people even read the words in posts these days?

Did you READ my first post where I say that it's neither fighters fault that this happened?

Did you READ the post where I said the exact same thing to the person you just quoted?

Geez....

And yes...........he "did what he had to do", he beat a guy who couldn't see him/have to protect a huge ****ing gash for five rounds.

Awesome achievement by any standard I'm sure.

[yeykax]

Anybody have a reply to this?

Khan could have never hurt Barrera that man is made of steel but i saw the whole fight and cut or no cut Barreras time is almost done really!!!

[Roger Mellie]

Awesome reply.

Calm down jimmy? ****,I forgot weak posters with short memories=****s.dont think I will give that a go anytime.

[Memeori]

The reason I find the cut infortunate because Barrera had a tough time in there and Amir because he gets little credit for making the best of the situation??

What is wrong with you people? lol

Did you read the post? I asked someone to show me where Khan does anything really effective to the point people can say he was dominating Barerra before the cut other than clash heads with Barerra which makes him back off to the ropes, and this is your reply?

Jesus.

I never meant to make it sound like he did something impressive because it was not!! Khans has not showed me he is an elite fighter yet and by beating a blind man did no good for his resume so i wouldnt put awesome achievement but he just got by ..lets say with a lil of luck???or should i say CUT!!!!
