    Close Fights That Had No Rematch

    I'm talking about fights like


    Amir-Maidana

    Alvarez-Trout

    Alvarez-Lara


    You ask why not when rematches for close fights don't materialize.

        *Close fights in fairly recent times

        If a fighter involved is a star and currently active

              .
              yeah but does anybody REALLY want to see these fights again. I mean Canelo v Trout was OK but hardly a classic.

              I wouldn't watch Canelo v Lara again if you paid me to watch it. That fight was dreadful that i didn't even care who got the decision, i wouldn't have cared if they had robbed Lara blind and give him 0 rounds, it was a total stinker and even though it could have gone either way, the fact it was close is totally irrelevant because it was that bad.

                Is that a Joke?

                Khan had a good first round, Garcia started timing him by the second but Khan still won it, Garcia dropped him in the 3rd and ended it in the 4th. It was not a close fight. Khan had 2 good rounds. That was not a close fight, it's just Khan's speed won him the first couple of rounds as you would usually expect anyway before his low ring IQ got himself timed.

                I've never quite understood why people act like Khan was destroying Garcia. You have to sustain it for longer than 2 or 3 rounds for that to be a genuine debate. If it was 6 or 7 rounds and then he got caught then i might agree But being timed from the 2nd round then dropped in the 3rd....nah.
