Lol@ Leo thinking thats actually Khans mate . Dudey was a deer caught in headlights tonight, he acted like he was there to make up the numbers. Sadly he's gonna go down in my books alongside Manfredo and Fraudley as ppl just turning up to make up the numbers.
Mcloskey the CONfidence man sold a good fight to Khan, Khan actually believed the hype and **** being spewed by Breen and Hearn about him and showed him too much respect If khan looked "amateurish" I don;t know wtf he looked like, complete and utter clown
i dont know if he was ill or not,but he has travelled around a lot,again. He probably had a long camp,and lol,may sound weird,but i thought i saw him snuffling like you do when you have a cold when he was interviewed pre fight,He didnt look quite a sharp and strong as usuals,but give credit to mckloskey for being difficult to hit,but also he didnt do anything to make much of a fight,which helped him not get counter much. Khan still school Bradley,bradley is a come forward brawler,khan will uppercut him into oblivion.
McCloskey is a disgrace. He was getting embarrassed and WANTED the fight to stopped only so that he could ***** and moan later about the stoppage
I think Matchroom were the stars of this promotion.They got a nice guarantee for a God awful mediocre fighter. The Irishman just can't compete at this level.Stick with the C- types of Eurotrash stiffs.:tired
Sorry mate but you're wrong. Khan had no fever not even a cough or a minor sneeze he was fine. No problem making weight this time at all very comfortable. About the press conference it was Team McCloskey who disrespected Khan by interrupting when he was speaking and saying "you were tiring" that is an insult for Khan who is a top athlete and can keep up to the saem training regime as Manny Pacquiao so they deserved everything they got if not more!!! Good Riddance!!!
Dudey plan was working prefect do nothing for the first 6 Rounds of the fight save all your energy then knock Khan out in the 7th round that doctor cost him big time lol
The Barry Hearn **** was laughable, but I think people are being way too harsh on McCloskey. He was clearly looking for the counterpunch, he just never got to it. I don't think Khan was stopping him at all. The most laughable thing to me is the cut wasn't even going in his ****ing eye.
Khan wasn't landing **** all, mate. It was a Malignaggi type defense. Using his shoulder, looks like he's getting belted all over, he isn't. Boxing is boxing, you get hit in the face. McCloskey wasn't seriously hurt or knocked down once. He should've continued on. Don't give me that "OH WELL HE WASN'T DOING ANYTHING TO KHAN". So what, it's a 12 round fight, if a fighter wants to wait until the last few rounds that's up to them. It's not the dumbest strategy when it's Amir Khan and he runs out of gas in the later rounds anyway. No sir, total bull**** stoppage and while a rematch isn't on the cards, I do feel McCloskey got a bit of a **** showing. I don't think Khan was battering him and for all the talk he gets about his power, to not be able to put a European level fighter over in 6 rounds when he can double over Maidana and Salita in one is quite shocking.
Laz and Rico... acting like the **** khan looked in the fight. McCloskey made him miss bad, imagine what Mayweather would do..ouch.. make him miss A told you not ND make him payto underestimate him.. and btw khans wee brother haroon made himself look a right wee **** after the fight
McCloskey didnt win a single round man, Its getting old. It was boring as hell to watch and a waste of money dont compare McCloskey to Mayweather! :rofl
