BOXNATION -Khan-Diaz, Harrison-Wilder, Saturday Night Fight Thread

Close scores...

Phew! If it was in Mexico you have to think Diaz would at least have got something out of it.

Price looks he had a vision of his own future there.

I think the right guy won, Khan banked enough rounds. Probably should have lost a point for holding though.

a different ref? ;D You think khan would dare fight there? I doubt he'll want to go back to the USA if I'm honest

Not by the hairs on my chinny chin chin!

Fine line between being brave and just too fuckin stupid for ones own good. Imagine if Diaz wasn't on the backside of his career.

Khan won. Just.

Yeah mate, I had it a bit wider than all 3 judges.

Gave khan 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,9

115-112

Great fun.

I get the impression the Virgil REALLY likes listening to himself talk.

The worst thing for khan about all of this is that everyone is going to follow that blueprint.

Garcia will be so much better next time round.

Khan has grew me. I like watching him fight. He's got an outstanding set of offense skills. And he's got a lot of heart. Khan ain't no bitch. I always thought he had a weak chin. But really he doesn't. It's average. His biggest problem is he has very poor punch resistance. Doesn't matter where you hit him. He can't take it. His body short circuits and he's in trouble. Sadly for him that's not something that's really fixable.

He also panics when he gets hurt. It's a bad combination.

Well Im becoming more and more convinced that trying to fix Amir Khan has been the worst thing that has happened to him.

He seems to have lost any snap in his punches, spends too much time and energy running around like a prick and still gets clumped/dropped just as much.

Get him in great shape and send him out to fight with no instructions whatsoever. The results wont change.

Hill and Diaz. Class acts.
