Amir Khan got punched in the testicles. Fight should have been a TD not a TKO!

    Win is win. That's why I was khanfused. TD or TKO...same hand was getting raised.

    And khan was not in this to win this. He sold himself, ONCE AGAIN, as an uncrowned champ. I doubt he could pull this trick again.

      I'm not a Khan fan, but fair is fair. If that fight had been stopped on Khan low blowing Crawford while Bud was pasting him all over the ring and about to KO him, would you have been happy with it being a TKO win for Amir? Because I wouldn't! It's the same both ways. You can't say, because Khan was getting beat up, it's okay to say it's a TKO. The way the fight was going doesn't change the fact he got low blowed...

        Hard for me to deal with what if's when the actual thing happened. Khan's team saw a chance to get out of it and took it.

          Exactly.
          We saw what happened, no need for what ifs.
          It's plain and simple.
          King Khan gave up cause he was about to get knocked out.
          His trainer new this so did Khan that's why he quit.
          I don't understand were these Poms are coming from.
          We just call them whinging poms in Australia.

                You can't let the circumstances of a fight dictate the outcome of an accidental low blow stopping the fight. The point is, whether Khan was winning or losing, it should have went to a decision. I also hold the referee accountable for rushing Khan and his team to make a decision. What he should have done is send Crawford to a neutral corner, and then stepped back and given Khan however long he needed to compose himself. Instead he was right in his ear pushing him to continue after 30 seconds.

                  How on earth anyone is OK with that fight being ruled a TKO victory for Terence Crawford is beyond me! No one is denying that Crawford was pitching a shutout, and hurt Khan in every round. But c'mon, you can't knock a nman out by punching him in the testicles...

                  Tell that to all the fighters/boxers that got hurt by a lowblow and still continued and some even won the fight.

                  Even prime Judah got hurt worse in the cotto fight and he continued.

                  So khan is not even on the level to atleast try to recover on a low blow when a lot of average to great fighters before have?
