    I think it kills you that the brown boy continues to get paid very well.
     
  2. You can't enjoy money with brain damage, son. You think muhammed Ali is having parties and popping open champagne bottles, while he's shaking and rocking backwards and forwards?

    Thank you for that information,Dad.....But while he's shaking and rocking he is in time with the music.......
     
  6. You really think those ko's don't have an effect on your brain. The effects don't become apparent immediately but over the years the outward symptoms begin to show.

    You dont start slurring and shaky overnight. Ashely Theophone is a british boxer that is starting to show signs of serious brain damage. I saw a latest interview with him and at one point, unconciously his eyes began rolling to the back of his head when a question was put to him.

    Let me educate you on what happens when you get hit to the brain.

    He has made his money and will no doubt need another lay off after last night it was a brutal KO.

    Khan boxed well opening rounds but was at full speed moving to keep Canelo off closing the distance.He couldn't keep that movement off and visibly slowed from round 5.

    The punch would of KO'D many however it travelled a hell of a long way Khan dropped his left lazy jab as he has done before and paid the price.He should seriously think about his long term health for sure and retirement .

    The problem is Khan's style. He's very upright and doesn't think about what's coming back, and falls in to traps.

    He's a good boxer and very quick, but when you are quicker than all your opponents it means they look to time you, which means you get hit with punches you don't see coming. When your chin isn't great thats a problem..

    Go to 147, fight a gimme or 2 then cash out v Brook next summer

    Needs to retire. Not because he cant continue a career but because hes too deluded to the point its actually dangerous.

    Khans big problems never been his chin...its that he doesnt have the brain to think for himself in a boxing ring. Thats not a jibe at khan its just is what it is.

    Hunters trying to hold his hand because he basically needs to. But at that level of boxing that in itself is at the point of being dangerous. Get a few easy wins and get out the game on a small high with a good big wonga in the bank.

    For me nearly everything khan says nowadays is deluded. My worry is they just keep cashing him out. He ll be up this morning saying to himself i was outboxing canelo easily until i was hit with a lucky punch canelo got a draw against mayweather on one card...so i ll be able to beat him as well then.

    I think he will avoid brook. The fear of being knocked out from kell is too much for him to take.

    I have no doubt that kell beats amir. Kell's timing and use of distance would give khan nightmares.

    Khan speed in first 4 rounds will be impressive but he won't hurt brook. Once brook times him it will be lights out. Khan is open to the right hand and brook will land it.

    Just don't see khan willing to make the fight.

    Nah he'll make it now. The several million he gets for the fight outshines everything else.

    Take the fight - then retire. He's a gatekeeper who's made millions.

    Khan has more ***** than Brook/Frampton or most other 'champions' that folk on here all love. Sport is about testing yourself to the limits of your ability- Khan has done that. Few apart from Froch can say the same.
