    That getting KTFO from a brutal shot that you weren't braced for means you have a glass jaw. QED.

    Not to the same extent. The only other sport that i follow intently is football (soccer in the US) and you never really hear anyone going 'oh, he is faking his injury so that he doesn't have to play against a top 4 club' or something like that.

    I mean, i know team sports are different... but i can't think of any other sport where it is this bad

    What, like Mike Tyson did when he blew through the heavyweight division as a teenager? Khan's protected.

    Mate, not everyone is like Mike Tyson. And would you really want to bring along anyone like Mike Tyson was brought along. Dude was finished before he got started... perhaps because he was pushed too quickly?? We will never know, but there are upsides to being slowly progressed through your career (e.g. you may be more mentally mature to deal with being the best) and not everyone has the ability of Iron Mike at such a young age

    I happened to have wrote that one. feel free to check out this khan quote,

    " I want to catch these guys when they have come off their peak, but I have to be careful cause they might be a younger version of me who wants to do exactly the same thing" Khan

    Now let me know what u think of that?

    When did Khan say that?

    I saw your post on the Alexander-Bradley wrecking each other fight and i don't agree.

    Both are young and both don't engage in wars or usually destroy other fighters. If they were to fight i imagine both would learn form the experience and come back stronger.

    Dirrell faked a knockout via pseudo-leg convulsions after being punched in the face by Arthur Abraham so that he could avoid an imminent knockout that would certainly have occurred in the remaining 4 minutes of the fight.

    The paranoia boggles the mind.

    By the way, it probably stems somewhat from the fact that strange and shady things do happen in boxing do to the fact it is (or was) run by such high-minded persons as the mob, Don King, Bob Arum, etc.

    that a quote he said on ***********.com and I was half way joking, but I do believe he want them to beat on each other first, and my quote kind of helps justify why I felt that way so there's no conspiracy theory on my end.

    :hi:

    Mayweather personally shot a guy in a skating rink while he was with his daughter in order to avoid a fight.
