what he said :deal. khan beat a way over the hill barrera, and as everyone knew would happen, he is now acting like a legend killing ATG. the only people who are getting over-the-top upset about this are those who predicted barrera would stop khan with ease.
This fight should have been declared a NC IMO. Quite interesting how they let it go to the 5th round before pulling out MAB, when Khan could be credited with the win. It stinks though Khan clearly was on top and his speed was giving MAB nightmares. Anyway, the fact of the matter Khan still has a weak chin and he will be found out again. It's a pity 'cos he has all the speed of hand and foot and punch variety in the world but he just can't take a solid punch. Remember Errol Christie anyway?
think it's fair to say that Khan's 'lightening fast' cominations of 5-6 punches are going to get him into a lot of trouble when he fights someone with roughly the same reach etc., he needs to dart in an out and stay on the outside. He has almost no punch resistance which unbalances him for bigger more destructive shots BUT for frank warren he is a great boxer to be in charge of - this makes Khan exciting to watch as many want to see him KOed again, but so far there is not the public media acknowledgment that Khan is not well -liked especially amongst boxing-fans. This happened with many other fighters but is probably no longer a PC thing to discuss, so they concentrate on biasing their reports to make it seem like he is very popular. His entrance for the fight was case in point, the booing was easily heard on the radio, but the commentator presented it as "the crowd roars its approval!" which is scewing things slightly i'd say. The public support for Khan certainly is not easy, even if Khan says that the fight was!
Khan is a little ****head, his comments and the hype around him are a joke...and the way this fight is being reported. Not to worry, it's guaranteed he'll be sparked before too long again.
Saying that he's going to get sparked by the next puncher he meets is hardly hate...it's fact. Cripes, am I agreeing with BS?
I dont think Barrera had much left and he looked a lot smaler than Khan.It probably was quite an easy night for him.The cut on Marco`s head made it even easier.But fair play to him Khan looked good.
MAB made sure his corner ****ed the cut up to find a way out of the fight. He was scared of Khans power.
