    The fight is now in the hands of the referee and/or the ringside doctor. They all fucking failed IMO.

    If people can't see that, I suppose were in a very small minority Miles.
    Speaking of Barerra blocking shots with his gloves how many was he landing on Khan in the first round before the headbutt?

    Anyway, what you fail to see is the fact that Barerra wasn't going to outbox Khan. The only way he was gonna win was by a one punch knockout. Khan was being too fast for him and had a good defense up as well when Barerra would throw a majority of them landed on Khan's gloves as well. And when Barerra went for broke Khan whethered it well.

    Like i said that cut only brought out the urgency in Barerra 4 or so rounds sooner then it would have Khan.

    Barerra wasn't gonna outbox nor impose his will on Khan. So if you want to come up with a way he'd have won even without the cut I applaud you.
    You are reading into what happened based on the cut. Like Kel pointed out, Barrera was totally in it in the first prior to the cut. He wasn't being pushed onto the back foot, he was slipping and ducking the jab to get inside effectively. Khan definitely would have started faster than Barrera but to say even without the cut it would have been the same is mere speculation.

    I read it differently.
    it's as much of a speculation that the fight would have been different without the cut. Wouldnt you say so?

    You can say Barerra had one eye or whatever but to say that he would have gotten inside easier or been more effective against Khan to the point of winning is as much a speculation as mine that the fight would have continued in the same way.

    A rematch would prove which one of is right. So I'm gonna throw my prediction out there that Khan wins a decision in a one sided fashion.

    I was gonna bring up another fight(Pacquiao and Morales I) where they were fighting at a pretty even pace and then Pacquiao was headbutted and cut above the eye as well. I Didn't hear anyone say that morales didn't deserve the win or that the win didn't count.

    But I really didn't want to turn it into a pac thread. A safer fight would be that when Holt won the title via knockout in the first round it started with a headbutt, but I didn't hear or see people raising hell about it, they were talking about how spectacular it was. So staying on topic, Khan wins a rematch one sided. If you have a different way of seeing the fight feel free to speak your opinion. I personally don't think Barerra could have done anything to stop what Khan was doing
