Just finished watching the fight again.
Khan took some solid bombs on the chin in that fight.
The punch that knocked Khan down was a very well timed shot with everything behind it and it landed on the back of his neck, just below his right ear, can't see how can you blame Khan's chin for that?
Do you see any other fighter taking that punch clean without going down? I don't think so, that punch would've knocked anyone down.IMO
Offcourse Khan should've done better after the KD tho, should've clinched and hug instead of exchanging punches or going toe to toe, Roach did an awful job in the corner in my opinion, he wasn't instructing him anything like (try to grab or clinch put your freaking hands up, don't get caught with hooks/uppercuts etc) I think Khan under V.Hunter would've reacted better in that situation.
What do you think? thoughts?
