    Just letting us know that he wasn't hurt I suppose. PAc used to do it all the time I guess it's a pryde thing when your in there. Khan has been critizied for his lost against Passcot I guess that's like him saying " Yea, I can take this I'm fine, come on"

    shitty fight. doesnt mean anything

    barrera isnt shot. he was smaller and slower and the cut fecked him.

    the cut allowed khan to luxury of being able to keep up the flurry as barrera couldnt see and the fight was going to get stopped.

    without the cut theres a good chance barrera would have weathered the first half of the fight and caught khan. khan still looked vulnerable the one or two times he was tagged. there's also a good chance khan would have won a wide UD if Barrera hadnt caught him.

    Barrera did him a huge favour (not as in it was his intention, in the sense taht this has worked very nicely for khan now) by fighting at this weight.

    personally i think the result does barrera a disservice and i think this resolves none of the doubts about khan. we already knew he was fast and powerful.....

    I can't believe these idiots are comparing Amir Khan's chin to Pac's.

    Barrera said he couldn't see Khan since round one because of the cut and blood and he said the fight should have been stopped in round one.

    He also said Khan was fast but he didn't hurt him.

    Do you guys really think Frank Warren would put Amir Khan in with Barrera if he thought Amir would lose the fight? Do you lot know anything about Frank Warren? If you did you'd know that he doesnt take risks.

    When Amir got KO'd that was unexpected and Frank was worried, Amir is his cash cow, his new "ricky". Frank will now do what he does best, get Amire's record looking nice. Loads of big "names", except all theses big names will be past their best.

    I knew Amir would win as soon as i heard the fight was a done deal, over here in London we know that Frank isnt going to risk Amir getting KO'd again. Barrera could have probably KO'd Khan, but he'd have to catch him first and that was gonna be highly unlikely.

    This TKO means nothing, Jimm watt was saying that they'd "dealt" with his chin. What does that mean? Nonsense. Amir is very quick, but he will be exposed as soon as he steps up to someone on the rise like he is, it's happened before.

    Ha, the host's talking BS.

    He said Roach helped improve Pacquiao's chin after Manny just lost to Rustico Torrecampo, like Roach is helping Khan now to improve Amir's chin.

    Roach never met Manny until 2001. The Torrecampo fight was back in the mid 1990's.
