    did that knock down occur right at the end of the round.

    Surely even with 20 left seconds Amir Khan would have been able to finish it.

        Lands a perfect shot in a perfect place and still has to go through hell to get the win.

        Maidana is made of something else.
        no kidding.

        people fight entire careers and never land a more beautiful and damaging liver shot than that. too bad it was against a psycho.

          Yeah but Khan is a ****** and started flurrying at his head straight after.

          Never really went back to the body again for the whole fight

            I think you are right,he never fully seemed himself after that shot. It is the single best punch I have ever seen Khan throw. I baffles me why Khan did not relentlesly target the same area and hit him with more liver shots.

                    No, he was not. It took the steam out of him for the rest of the fight. Let's play "how keen is your eye" baya. Watch it again, my friend. See if you agree with me.

                    Why is this confusing for you guys??
