Well Done Amir Khan

[BoomBoom]

He is undeniably skilled. He has world class ability no question. But his chin is going to be his downfall as it is his biggest weakness. He cant afford to have a single defensive lapse. I think Roach knows this and thats why they worked on it. The good thing is, that makes him an interesting fighter to watch. I think lot of people will tune in to watch him based on that. Im sure thats not what he wants to be the reason, but it will. If he can get some more good wins and a title, then hopefully those people will start to watch him more for his skills, cause he does have them.

That type of ending was my worst nightmare BUT Khan was impressive. Barrera never looked like he was gonna be in the fight.

They're not gonna go near Prescott ever again.

PLEASE can he fight John Murray for the Brit title.

lol well BoomBoom, there is truth in that. If Amir got dropped like a sack of potatoes 45 seconds in I would probably have laughed my ass off. For some reason that i am not even aware, it is kinda funny.

But bearing that in mind, yes, Khan has skills. Great hand speed and agility, and seems to have worked a good game plan it. We never saw it come to the kind of fruition to silence doubters, and we won't either until he gets more fights under his belt. I've seen him wobbled and dropped enough to believe his chin is crap. I don't think he will be a great. but the guy has skills, and IMO deserves credit for this fight.

It is a shame to see MAB leave like this, but hey, he earned a nice cheque, and the man is a warrior...it doesn't in any way surprise me. So a big hats off to him and his career.

Khan looked good, showed some new defence and stuck to the plan, Barrera looked to small, too slow and lacked that spark that he had when on point back in the day. Well done to Amir he showed he can adapt his style but I think the jury's still out until he fights a young puncher his own size again.
