    Getting even a soft hit in the balls hurts like hell. Now, try taking a boxer's punch to the nut-sack and tell me "he should have gone out on his shield".

    Anyway, without the nut-shot, Crawford was still on his way to a KO victory. Not a TKO but a full on KO victory.

    Of course that smug creep Andre Ward still has Bud as P4P#1 lol

    Guess who Andre ''I'm Watching Yo Tapes, Rigo.. You A Master'' Ward had ranked in that #1 position before Loma fought Rigo? And see if you can guess what narrative he was pushing after Loma took his boy's soul?

    And he and James Prince had that shifty-eyed lesbian Shakur Stevenson spying on Loma for the Rigo fight relaying information back to them so they could pass it onto Rigo.

    By that reasoning Khan should be a genius now. (HA! Got 'em! Good one, Brain.)

    Well it’s pretty obvious Khan wanted out of there. It’s not really like him, either. He usually goes out on his shield. Khan is done. No more boxing for him. I don’t even want to see him as a gatekeeper, as he’ll most likely get ko’d every time. It’s a shame, because I’ve always been in the minority that likes Khan. I mean, take away his shaky chin, and what is there negative to say about him? He had some of the fastest hands and biggest balls in boxing history, the latter of which was a detriment at times. There’s no telling what he’d have accomplished with a tougher chin (or better defense depending on how you view it). This guy almost took a Maidana out in one round. People tend to forget that. Khan really is one of my favorite fighters of the this past generation. I’ve got nothing but respect for the man.

    But it’s over.

    He was getting beat up and knew he had no chance of winning. He wanted it to end.

    Khan did the Mayweather thing. Protect your health and your life. Can't blame the guy. He thought he could hang in there with Crow but found out he can't. Get your money and quit. Nothing's wrong with that. Khan robbed us for $70. Trump robbed America for trillions of dollars. Stop blaming Khan. Geezzz.

    That's why they wear protectors. If it's properly fitted, which I assume it would be unless it moves during the round, you can take a square on power hit and not feel much.

    This fight made it blatantly obvious that Khan really, really, really-really-really-REALLY should have taken the Kell Brook fight and called it a career.
