    As soon as the head clash occured (By accident)
    I knew the ref was going to stop it as soon as it became official.

    Marco was out of the fight as soon as the butt ocurred he was DONE! (Ment.)
    Amir boxed beautiful & used his size to go the official alotted amount of round's. (Smart)
    (It was plain as day tho that the ringside peep's wanted to stop this! but not until it became official, So Khan could get his W.)

    The cut had not changed from round 1 until the stoppage, It could have stopped in 1.
    (But a no contest would have went down & no W for Khan)

    Smart business move, & good win on paper.
    I defo agree, If Khan had suffered the cut, Fight would have been stopped in 1.

    Aye, or to sum it all up: boxing is a business, in the entertainment industry.

    Well thats what happens with the big stars,this is a business after all.I'm not really a fan of the guy but he is getting no more special treatment than Barrera himself or any other big named fighter would have got in the past.From what I saw Khan won every minute of every round so you can't really complain.

    I find it annoying and gay that there is always someone willing to discredit a fighter they dislike.

    It's a predictable respone, and typical of the *lesser* members of ESB to say stuff like "Khan would have KO'd if MAB hadn't been cut".

    I think anyone who saw the fight understand that if anyone was getting KO'd it was MAB.

    ^^ you are discrediting MAB the same way you are accusing others of discrediting Khan. Don't you see that?

    Barrera wobbled Khan in the 5th, despite the cut. Its not that much of a stretch to say that he would have faired much better without that nasty gash on his head.

    Put it this way, if Khan truly had a china chin. The accidental headbutt alone would've KOed Khan. If they fought again Khan would outbox and batter Barrera again

    No he did not 'wobble' Khan in the 5th, please point to the specific time in the 5th round cuz I saw round 5 a few times and Barrera didnt even land a clean punch let alone wobbling Khan. Very weak attempt, I'm afraid this is another conspiracy theory :yep

    EXACTLY right.
    The best Kahn but NOT the best Barrera... not to take away from Kahn. He did what he had to do... but for the Kahn fans to say the cut was nothing is just ignorance:good

    Khan was on top from the first moment to the last, he was dominaiting, and I don't think I'm discrediting MAB by saying that the more likely scenario was him getting KO'd, rather than Khan. And this so-called "wabble in the 5th" was pretty pathetic, it was one of the few occasions on which MAB landed cleanly, thats all you can say about it really, not like Khan was seriously hurt.
