Let's say he was hit with an even worse low blow. The kind where it's deliberately thrown center shot there with full force. Other fighters have taken up to the 5 minutes if needed, most cases they only need 2-3 minutes as most. Then they recovered and continued to fight on. Khan gets a low blow but not directly in the balls. And he gives up after a minute rather than take the full 5 minutes? Glass balls are real. Glass hearts are even more real. If you wanted to quit, quit on your stool. Don't use this an excuse and then blatantly keep saying "I am not a quitter" afterwards, because that's exactly what you did.
Just because the exact centre of the gloves did'nt hit the centre of his balls does not mean it did not hit his balls. You also have to consider the position and shape of his body when it landed and also the trajectory of the punch. People on here are acting like they take a jackhammer to their own balls everyday or something. Even the tiniest flick on the balls hurts, taking a boxers punch would at the very least leave you feeling sickly and dizzy.
lmfao....too good khan is shot to bits, he needs to retire for his own good but take a flush shot on the nuts is not something you can just walk off....shame it ended like that, much rather have seen the ko
true enough but he could of at least used the five minutesminutes,five minutes that Kovelev didn't get against Ward. If he was looking for a way out then most would understand after five minutes.
That tends to be one of the only huge drawbacks of having testicles, they're unprotected swinging meatballs wrapped in a wire mesh that's made of nerves. It's like having exposed dangling funny bones, even if a finger grazes them too hard, you're down for the count. Achilles Heel should be renamed Balls.
