    No point. This was extremely one sided.
    Khan needs to retire.

    I was waiting for the towel but it was still too early for the ref to step in, imo.

    Kahn looked grateful though.

    I guess it was quick in the sense of a knockout, which was probably a few punches away.

    Without a shadow of doubt but even worse because Floyd is sharper than Kell.

    Based on this, Brook smashes Benn.

    I sincerely hope not. That's ridiculous :confused:

    Premature stoppage. It was coming but Khan displayed a ton of heart there and because it was a British domestic dust up for bragging rights his chin morphed into steel too.

    Kell is a decent puncher not a massive one but he's the naturally bigger man so his power would be magnified. The natural size advantage worked in Kell's favour when it came to taking Khan's power too because Khan couldn't hurt or keep him off him. Really pleased for Kell though and I hope his eye hasn't gone again.

    But also big credit to Khan for hanging tough and the heart he displayed.

    But the person who deserves the most credit here is Domingle as he'd whipped himself into the shape of his life for this one and I thought he was absolutely outstanding tonight.

    Brook won the "Will Get Fed to Connor Benn" sweepstakes tonight.

    Still don't think we ever really saw the best of Brook, due to a combination of not living the life, the Tenerife incident and taking a stupid risk fighting Golovkin. Shame.

    Never been an issue with Khan's heart........his resistance however is another issue entirely, as is his defence and ring IQ.

    Give them both their due though, it was a decent scrap while it lasted.

    Khan looks like he doesn't care about losing.

    Khan looked like a man past his prime and who hasn’t had a fight in 3 years!

    Brooke was marginally better, he’s been more active and it showed.

    I’m not so sure as some others on here that a Khan v Brooke fight closer to Khans prime would’ve been the same result. Tonight Khan had hardly any output during this fight also his trademark speed and 5 punch combinations weren’t there at all.

    Brook also brutally KO's Benn, but Benn will probably want Khan
