    Pascal has been ordered to rematch hopkins.... same should apply for khan/mcCloskey

    There were still 6 rounds left in the fight, ok i'm not saying khan would have lost but he did look horrible in there last night, who know's later in the fight it could have swung direction. IMO the fight should never have been stopped.... bad decision by the ref.

    hopkins vs pascal was also a voluntary defence yet the rematch has been ordered so lets hope paul mcCloskey gets a fair crack at the whip.

    The stoppage was b/s but McCloskey had a fair crack of the whip, he did nothing and that does not merit a rematch.

      the fight only went 6 rounds so how can you say he did nothing to merit a rematch ? khan looked terrible missing shots looking open for counters..... remember amir was once in pauls position fighting for a world title.

        McCloskey clearly lost every round. Realistically, who is going to want to watch a rematch of a fight that wasn't competitive for as long as it lasted?

          the fight only went 6 rounds !!!!! after that performance khan dosen't deserve a fight with bradley.... mcCloskey had the whole 2nd half of the fight to adjust or for all we know could have been the game plan to take khan into the trenches in the later rounds.

              Khan earned the fight with Bradley with his performance and victory v Marcos Maidana. This fight was a keep-busy fight which lasted 6 rounds and which Khan won clearly.

              As I said, the stoppage was b/s and McCloskey might well have improved if the fight continued but that doesn't change the fact he didn't put forward a genuine case for a rematch while the fight was on.

              It's tough on McCloskey, but that's life.

                McClowsky wasn't trying to win he doesn't deserve to even think about a rematch

                  Pascal - Hopkins was a close disputable fight. Khan - McCloskey is a different matter.

                    Incase you didn't realise he had a cut, from then on, it would have turned ugly for Mckosly.
