    the khan knockdown was definitely a controversial incident.

    u could see khan look at his corner who must have been saying "take a knee", but the count was too far along for that.

    he was lucky on that one was amir. :yep

    I tell you, that night was special. I was in the boozer, everyone except me is ignoring the boxing, then THAT happens, and all of a sudden everyone is screaming at the tv, the barman turns the jukebox OFF and the tv UP, and nobody is talking to anybody apart from Willie Limond.

    Haven't seen a reaction to boxing that intense since Benn-Eubank.

    It's funny. Willie is just an honest pro, and Khan is just a prospect, all be it a special one, but that is one of my favourite moments in boxing, ever. A bar full of Scots just as in to the fight as me.

    If the referee had known what number came after 7, the Khan bandwagon would have been derailed.

    listen we all know not 1 single official wanted amir to get counted out with all the cash invested in him and hype,good to see a true glasgow boy decking him though.
