I'm glad bob is smiling

Robert: I’m gonna stop it
Mikey: No don’t stop it bro

Khan: I can’t continue


Not exactly those words but y’all get the drift

Khan's performance in 5 rounds was far superior to Mikey's over 12. Khan actually THREW and LANDED punches.

I don't see how you can say that with certainty. Khan looked far more discouraged to me. Mikey tried to close the distance, but there came a point where the size and skill differential put him in a shell. Mikey did try and he kept Spence honest for most of the fight.

Khan tried, he tagged Crawford a few times....even landed some nice shots before the stoppage. But Crawford's defensive lapses probably occurred bc he didn't respect Khan's power at all. The power, speed and size differential was evident.

The fights played out different. I'm not trying to bash Khan for an effort nobody wanted him to take, but Arum can say Mikey came to survive...that doesn't sound so bad in the face of coming, getting hit for a few rounds and then saying I don't even want to bother trying to survive. Khan is past it so badly, I don't even care he quit. The fight shouldn't have happened, period.

Bro, seriously? I counted eight rounds where Mikey didn't throw jack compared to Khan.
