    I have no idea why anyone thought Khan has a chance to win :risas3:

    He hasn't fought a good fight since Algieri in 2015.

    4 fights in the last 6 years.

    - 40 sec W over Lo Greco
    - DEC against Vargas where he was wobbled, hurt and dropped
    - quit against Bud
    - clown fight against a Super Featherwight Billy Dib

    Who cares? This is boxing. The fight should have been decided by the fighters in the ring, not by some squeamish ref who calls off the action, depriving everyone of the brutal KO we PAY to see!!

    With hindsight, You do have to laugh.

    Even Khan at his "funny dance" peak was levels below Mayweather.

    Seriously what sort of boxing fan wants a fighter to take unnecessary punishment when the outcome is inevitable?

    You did not just reference Khan taking a fight he knew he had no chance Of winning against for a MW as the reason he wasn’t ducking Brook..

    Just like Mikey never wanted to fight Loma so he moved up 2 weight classes take a fight with Spence..

    If Kahn really had nothing left then his corner should have thrown in the towel. It was too soon for the ref to make that decision.

    I might be biased but British rivalry scraps are the best they leave nothing in the ring. The energy they bring to the ring and the crowd too. Kind of like the old school hagler/hearns/srr/duran era. Sadly with USA its all about jab move and stealing rounds.

    I don't really care for Khan, but dude was Bambi after the 1st solid punch, It wasn't necessary for me to see him hurt. Already confirmed whatever questions anyone had about this matchup by the 6th. Knockouts are great but guys taking multiple knockouts and executions aren't lol.

    Exactly. I didn't give Khan 1 round and he was wobbly from the first. getting manhandled on a regular basis all the way through.
    Happy for Brook to get the win it must have been a great relief after all this time and the smack talk.

    He looked more hurt earlier on than he did at the time of the stoppage. Yes, Brook was mauling him, but it's not as if he was out on his feet.

    You can make it what you want but Khan faced Canelo and Brooks faced GGG
    End of the day Khan has avoided this fight for a damn good reason

    Eubank looking to fight Brook is a disgrace, Eubank bottled GGG and Brook stepped up and took the fight,still haunting Eubank to this day !
