    True but if the fact is that Khan had longer than 10sec to get up and continue he should have lost. Many times you see fighters take a beating then appear fine seconds later. The fight stunk.

    Thatis exactly how i saw it. The incident will be erased from history now though. Limond Should have won.

    Can yu imagine the uproar if it had been the other way round?

    The fight stank bad.

    A ref ten seconds is rarely a proper ten seconds.

    If you are Willie's brother then please thank him from me, I saw a great fight Saturday! Obviously I'm disappointed Willie didn't win, but he made a fan of me. Thanks, take it EZ.

    Glad to see you here mate:good

    My pal has actually recorded the Limond interview on Scotland today where big Raman was interviewing him, & Willie was watching a replay of the fight & talking about it. Hes also got the BBC interview where it shows you the clock the second Khan went down, interesting stuff!

    Hopefully we will get it uploaded onto Youtube in the next day or two, & I will post it here.

    Willie did Scotland proud mate, & he can be very proud of himself. & it was good to see him saying he was coming back as soon as possible, cos Willie is going to win another title, of that I am sure, & that fight should hopefully open many doors for him in the future.

    No disrespect mate, but I feel that Khan won fair and square. However, to my mind Khan hasn't proved he is the better fighter, and that's why your bro deserves the rematch. I would have been very interested to see the remainder of the fight had he not had his jaw broken.

    What does Willie think of the outcome of a Arthur - Khan or Thaxton - Khan fight?

    No disrespect, mate, but you need to read the thread. Willie has not had his jaw broken...

    I have just watched the fight. Khan was not down for 13 seconds. He was down for 9 or 10 seconds if you include the second kd. Another major part of the confusion was that the ref picked up the count at 5 and did not start at 1.

    Is it true Willie may have to retire? I hope he got paid well.

    "Hopefully we will get it uploaded onto Youtube in the next day or two, & I will post it here."

    I doubt that very much, you can bet your bottom dollar Frank Warren will have that one pulled every time it appears on www.youtube.com

    Regardless of whether Amir Khan won the fight that was the fight where King Khan took a beating and was almost Knocked out!

    If I were Frank I'd be having kittens at ringside watching all those millions being blown away by Willie Limond.

    I say lets have a re-match. It was a title fight, a controversial error was made and both boxers should have the opportunity to prove one of them is the rightful owner of the Common Wealth belt.

    I'd bet my last penny the ref would not have been so careless if it were a Scottish ref and the fight had taken place in Scotland.

    If Amir Khan is as good as everyone makes him out to be perhaps he should agree to a rematch in Scotland with a Scottish ref.

    I hope Willie makes a full, rapid recovery. I look forward to watching his next fight.

    Regards,


    John:good
