    He should retire.

    Boxing made him a lot of money and turned him into a celebrity.

    Live off of that now before he loses more months/years off his life than he already has.

    I didn't watch, but that's too bad to hear. Although he's a major ass at times, I never want to see a boxer seriously hurt. But if this kat is getting concussions, almost everytime he steps in the ring, something has to be done.

    You're definitely underestimating Diaz here

    I think calling for retirement is a bit extreme. He's got a glass chin granted but he took some big shots in there tonight and held on, he listened to his trainer and came through a war.

    He's never going to be P4P top 5 but he's damn entertaining and that's what we watch boxing for.

    Yes,but people who tend to have actualy boxed dont get a ****in' hard on when another man gets brutally KO'd and hurt.

    Its tends to mean you have serious issues.

    Admire the shot and skill, but dont shriek and get all giddy when another man gets seriously injured.

    Admire the punch, give respect to the guy who delivered the blow.

    But guys who get their jollies from seeing a fighter seriously hurt,are,for want of a better word,mentally ****ed up.

    Actual boxing people know this.

    Absolutely not, he did well. But Khan is supposed to be a level above.

    Good point ,has anyone notice in his last interview he talks with eyes closes, sometimes, I find this very strange ,I didn't notice this early in his career...Something to watch out for.

    The way to hurt Khan is to tag him in between his punches.
