    That was more like a gash and it should definitely be overturned to a nc, imagine what would of happen if Khan got the worst of the headclash.

    barrera would have knocked khan out if khan had one eye,but if it was khan 100% it would have been stopped and ruled a n/c at start of round 2

    The cut didn't make Barrera shorter, slower or have an inferior reach...

    The fact is, if Khan had suffered the same injury, they would have stopped the fight before and if anyone believes otherwise they are kidding themselves. On that basis alone, irrespective of whether Marco would have won or lost, it should have been stopped and made a NC. A rematch should ensue.

    Which doesn't address the point: having seen what there was of that fight, why wouldn't Frank Warren approach a rematch with a lot more confidence for Khan being able to do the job than he did the first fight?

    Khan is challenging for a title at LWW now, doubt he'll be seen at LW again. If Barrera is going to continue fighting I imagine it would be at LW. What would be the point of a rematch and who would order it?

    I thought they were over-exaggerating the cut, but once you remove all the blood and see it properly, its absolutely horrific and Jim Watt was right. "It's something you'd' expect to see a traffic accident". Something along those lines.

    Cobbler.

    I am saying, the fight should have been stopped immediately, and thus the decision would have been ruled a NC. Obviously, to make a star out of Amir, they'd have to have a rematch to prove that he can beat a past-it legend like Marco legitimately.

    Personally, I would like to see Marco retire. Khan is nothing special, and the first live opponent he faces who doesn't have impaired vision will knock him out. I'm British, I wish the guy luck, but he does not have the punch resistance too hang with the best fighters in the world. Roach says he wants Valero, he is a joker, Valero would absolutely smash Khan. It'd be horrific.
