cool / fool / conference clip / olympics... i had no idea you were a rapper. but anyway, i think when khan talks like this its just a (bad) act. i don't think he's too good at playing the cocky type and it doesn't come across as funny as he thinks. i think he should win this fight though but i wouldn't suprised to see him dropped on the way to a tko victory
He was lucky that Earl is the only person in British boxing who is even less articulate than Khan is.
Couldn't you tell? I'm MC Elle! I agree with you on both points - Khan should drop the bravado act and use more tact. I do expect him to beat 'The Duke' but a knockdown on the way would be no fluke. Over to you Rooq! :good
Well, Baz carey took him the distance. In fact, how many actual KO's does Khan have on his record? I'll tell you, NONE. All of his stoppages have been by TKO, and there has been no sign that he is a big puncher. The only time he has faced anything other than moderate opposition he very nearly came unstuck. Amir Khan may have talent, but the delerious praise that people heap upon him is frankly a little embarrasing.
your right strike, my memory of the fight as I had only seen it the once when it was on live was that Katsidis got hit, went down, got straight back up & normal service was resumed. However, after seeing it again thanks to the links, you were correct. When Katsidis got back up he was on shaky legs for a while, & no doubt was hurt.
My feeling was he must not have been to hurt if he Knocked Earl down again which he did. And was landing again and again. His feet might not have been there but his hands and punching rate sure was.
you kidding? Khan sounds a shambling buffoon every time he tries to be funny or witty. To make matters worse he clearly sees himself as a funny man...it's embarrasing. opponent 'i'm gonna take you to a dark place' Khan 'I already went to the haunted house yesterday'...hahahahaha. :roll:
hey my man, Im not arguing that Katsidis won the fight, & deservedly. I just think he was a bit more hurt than I originally thought but thats no big deal as when its a mad war like that was, both fighters are always going to have to come though dodgy moments. I just said originally that it was a flash knockdown, but on second viewing Katsidis was pretty hurt. Great fight, & best of luck to both Katsidis 7 Earl in the future.(unless they fight scotsmen )
Haha yeah another thing just quickly Dunky. Hows my boy Scott McDonald going for Celtic this year. My god he is having a great year. As i probably told you before im of Scottish blood also Dunky so of course go the Scots.
Hes doing pretty well, in fact just last week he was talking in the newspapers about how Scotland tried to 'steal' him, but MacDonald said he was too patriotic to join the Scottish national team although his parents were scottish. Said he was born in Australia, so considers himself australian. Celtic got humped 2-0 last night though, so he didnt do too well then by the look of things But hes doing OK, & hes imaginitively called 'skippy' by the Celtic fans, thats as much as I know! Dont know how many goals hes scored though, but he has scored quite a few.
So far he scored two hat tricks for them aswell as that goal against Milan. In all comps i think he has 8 goals so far. Anyway Dunky good talking to you and one quick thing i hope Earl finally shuts up the Mouth Khan. Just because im sick of him getting more attention than say a Calzaghe or a Hatton does and they actually have beaten decent opponents.
No problems Boppa, & good to talk to you too again my good man. I cant see Earl winning this one though, cos Im pretty positive Katsidis has ruined him. I hate talking like that, but Earl has been in some punishing fights & Khan is getting him at just the right time. I think its going to be very one sided as long as it lasts, & I just hope Earl doesnt have to take too many more big punches in his career. hes a really nice guy, & I actually feel sorry for him that hes going to be facing Khan in the lions den on Khans birthday. I just he gets out of there without any lasting damage. negative, I know. But thats how I feel about this fight 7 how its gonna go. Anyway catch you next time:good
He didn't knock Earl down again in that round, so I suggest you go back and watch it. He stumbled half away across the ring and was wobbling all over the show and from touching down to the ref waving fight on, a time of 17 seconds elapsed. It was a poor job from Vann, at the point of 8 seconds having passed, Katsidis was still in a bad way, had the fight been waved back on at this point (1.36 on the clock) who knows what would have happened? As it was he got a further 9 seconds to recover before fighting resumed and by then his head had cleared a fair amount and his legs were steady again.
