Khan was boxing superbly, smart aggression and was very exciting until he got hit with that left hook.

Think I’m late but had to rewatch again. 99’ and one of my all time favs with a monumental come from behind win. Carbajal had been battered and by all accounts passed the very end after being ko’d by Baby Jake Matlala. Retired for almost two years and as many top fighters do, just had to come back for one last run. Best thing was he got the w, took the belt off a young Arce who still had 3 championships later in career...and Carbajal put the belt and the worn weary gloves on his career ‘wall’ put his pride in his pocket and finally called it a day. Going out on top. Not sure it’ll show up. Phone having link issues

During the Crawford v Spence fight they mentioned Carbajal v Arce!

Carbajal was the first $million dollar flyweight and put the USA spotlight on the lower weights.

Recall that vividly. Top example of marketing on nothing more than glossy numbers high KO stats and an unknown who knew how to play a part massively. He became a punch line but Peter sold the hell out of that um fight . Can't go without saying Lamar Murphy robbed on the undercard vs Gonzalez.
