Comments Thread For: Crawford To Amir Khan: You Didn't Quit? Tell The Truth!

[JimRaynor]

This wouldn't be so bad if Kahn actually took his 5 minutes to recover, instead he quit a minute in. However, in Kahns defense it was only a matter of time before Terrence would've finished him regardless, therefore why take any more punishment than you have to, not a good look for him or boxing, but atleast it preserved his health in a doomed fight. In the end that is more important in the grand scheme of things especially with incidences like Adonis Stevensons.

Thing is no one on here has been hit on the thigh by a pro boxer theres nerves around that area i dont doubt khan felt pain.

Crawford lucky to not get disqualified for low blow when he didn't need to go so low. If khan did it, people would say it was intentional to try turn the tide his way.

Why would he be disqualified? He never got a previous warning from the ref and it was the first low blow which was clear to be accidental. If it was a repeated low blows with previous warning from refs that then could be a ground for disqualification

It's been often said by both boxing pundits and fans alike that the last to go on aging fighter is his power. I disagree.

The last to go on an aging fighter is his balls. Once they are gone a fighter has nothing. That was a very shameful and disgraceful display of cowardice by Amir Khan last night.

I feel even more embarrassed for his fans. He was hit low only once and it was nowhere near the cup area but yet he still chose to tap out of the fight anyway because he was frustrated, hurt and getting his asswhooped.

So he decided to call it quits. I hope we never see him in a ring again because the longer he fights the greater his chances are of getting hurt. It's time for him to hang up the gloves for good.

Americans showing a real lack of class tonight. The "TKO" stoppage and the "quitting" talk have ruined this win for Terence Crawford. He dominated the fight from start to finish and had Amir Khan hurt several times per round. But this was all overshadowed by the horrendous officiating, and the classless antics of Crawford and the US media. Khan is a true warrior, and although shot, he's proven he's a warrior time and time again. He has fought the best time and again, and has never shied away from getting his glass chin smashed. He deserves a lot of credit for taking such a hard fight at this past-prime stage of his career. A shame the fat Yanks had to ruin what was looking like a very good night for their main man.

Americans promoters & (or) televisions always supported boxers from all around the world: Roberto Duran, Pacquiao, Alexis Arguello, Salvador Sanchez, Julio-Cesar Chavez, Lennox Lewis, Azumah Nelson, Mike McCallum, Julian Jackson, Ike Quartey, Samuel Peter, Ike Ibeabuchi, Kostya Tszyu, Canelo Alvarez, Golovkin, Kovalev, Lomachenko, Adamek, Golota, David Tua, Donaire, Livingston Bramble, Ricky Hatton, Juan Manuel Marquez, Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, Sergio Martinez, ect. etc. etc. .... And Tito Trinidad, Wilfred Benitez, Miguel Cotto, Miguel Torres, Wilfredo Gomez, & Carlos Ortiz became world super stars & rich by fighting in the U.S

i believe it was ruled a TKO because khan and his corner basically threw in the towel during the break. it was an odd move that suggests he was looking for an out. the alternative could've been an immediate DQ, but that wouldn't have been fair officiating either as it was only the first offense in a fight crawford was comfortably winning. the ref might've taken a point off after the break but we didn't get to that part. glad i didn't buy this PPV because i'd be pissed off at khan as well.

Khan quit, he has basically conned millions from his ******ed fanbase selling ppv fights he had zero chance of winning.

He is no threat at 147 and never was to be honest, all the bs about him being a master boxer lol, what a joke.

I don't think he will fight brook either, he won't last 3 rounds.

He should retire to Pakistan and live in luxury on a goat farm.

Exactly, even a few years , all that talk about him being a master boxer that doesn’t lose rounds was a joke.

That is of course the way it is but we all know Khan and his clan will try every thing possible to try and twist it. He wanted out but to do it this way is de****able.

[Pigeons]

Khan is and has been washed for a while now...TR sold people a PPV with a washed up fighter as part of the Main Event...so what’s all the fuss for?!?...it was a mismatch from the first phone called made about making this fight...Khan behaved like a washed up fighter when he got hit with the low blow plus he was performing like one as well before the low blow...As for Bud, he’ll be 32 soon and still hasn’t beaten anyone important...And with all the important opponents being on the other side of the fence, TR will continue to feed him NAMES...just like they did here with Khan...Bud about to get Timothy Bradley'd...let that marinate

I see this mentioned from time to time on here, and for the life of me, I don't understand it.


Tim Bradley fought Manny Pacquiao three times and Juan Manuel Marquez all on PPV and engaged in a Fight of The Year (and one of, if not the, Fight of the Decade) against Ruslan Provodnikov all under the Top Rank banner. How exactly didn't Top Rank do right by Bradley?
