    Well said mate, and watching that rematch would be a thing of beauty imo lol

    Khan would get the same as last time.

    Khan and Sky need to get a ****ing grip on reality. Khan can say what he wants but he does not want a rematch with Prescott. He is told to say this ****, isn't that obvious?!

    There is one easy answer to this, don't participate by buying the fight, and if you aren't buying you have nothing to complain about.

    I think people should be used to sky hyping by now.
    They've invested alot in Khan so have to sell him as something he most probably isn't.
    I actually quite like Khan and his fights are usually good to watch but I'm not paying PPV for a boxer who hasn't even challenged at British level yet.

    Nope, certainly not half as much as the relentless anti-Khan brigade.

    Honestly looking Khans oppossition it's been pretty solid for the amount of fights he's had he's been in with some reasonable punchers (earl, Gomez) and some good fighters (Limond St Clair, Kristianson? has an okay resume) But obviously he got banged out by a huge Colombian power puncher with now 18 KO's in 20 fights.

    He's a hard fighter to market because if he feasts on bums that he's way over-matched for like other fighters have done he'll get given hell, but he can't be fed to the power-punching kings of the lightweight division they still need to match him carefully hoping he'll be learning lessons along the way.

    Compared to Murrays competition Khan is streets ahead! Murray gets one win over a VERY limited british fighter and he's touted as the next best thing. Murray is ****ing average the only advantage he has over Khan is a chin. His power is pretty average his skills are average! he's almost got beat by Yousseff Al Hamaidi for ****s sake. Not to mention the Mexican roadsweeper who CLEARLY had him beat in the US yet he got a gift decision.

    Get real folks Khan has a weak chin but he'd be far too much for Murray.

    I just watched the fight again and he clearly used his guard a lot more and immediately covered up after firing. I didn't realise at the time but watching it again he blocked a lot of overhands with his gloves.

    I agree, nowhere near.

    Anyway, a channel hyping a boxer who they have paid huge amounts of money to show - who'd have though it.:roll:

    Khan seems to be hitting harder than usual.
    I can't see how anyone can complain about the stoppage which seems to be normal after a Khan win.
