Barrera v Khan - WEIGH IN VID - Plus Undercard - STICKY!

[Gandalf]

Yes, I completely agree, it’s fair and classy to give always credit to the winner if it’s not a robbery.

In it's own way it was a robbery though. The fight should have been a NC. How can you give credit to something so inconclusive. Manny Pac beat Barrera, now Khan really didnt.

Sorry Miles but I have another definition for a robbery.
I also think Khan deserved some credit; maybe Barrera didn’t deserve to lose but Khan deserved to win IMO. I respect your opinion but tell me what Amir had to do to deserve it.

To beat Barrera into submission or else hammer him on the cards. Barrera wasn't stopped and incompetence meant that a NC wasn't called sooner. It was an inconclusive result.

I've conceded that Khan was boxing well, but having said that, Barrera had blood pouring into his eye for repeated rounds. Khan was throwing pitty pat punches against the gloves of a man who couldn't see clearly. Khan did what needed to be done and the rules say he won.

But anybody can see that it has a LOT of question marks.

Would you question Calzaghe's win over RJJ in the same way? Because there's a lot of similarities in that one sentence

The punches that hit the gloves don't score. We all know this. My standards apply across all fighters. Im not disputing that Khan was winning the rounds either. He clearly was.

Just give him a little credit for this please, it cost you nothing. Anyway, I predicted and I wanted a Barrera win too but Khan did nothing wrong.

A few hours have passed and I'm gradually adjusting. Khan showed a lot of positive things and he was outboxing Barrera with his size. He was winning the fight no doubt.

I have probably come across as bitter, but that bitterness is not really with Khan. Khan did what he had to do and he got the result.

My concerns are with the circumstances of the win. What's done is done though.
