What do you think would have happened if Barrera was allowed by the doctor to continu

[XaduBoxer]

Michael Katsidis was allowed by a sane doctor to continue fighting Cezar Amonsot 'til the end even with 4 or 5 serious cuts on his face...

swelling is below the eye and bleeding down his cheek. Not a 3" slash bleeding down in to his eye.


Your point is?

Well that sane doctor got a lot a criticism after the fight for allowing Katsidis to fight on... Concerned fans even wrote protest letter to the commission...

Well my point is, there could be a insane doctor out there that could have allowed Barrera to fight on for 7 more rounds (that's if Barrera can last that long)...

You implying concerned fans should write to the stuffy boys at the BBBoC.....it's an idea.

Maybe mr Parris could get coshed on the head and see how long he thinks he needs before we call a doctor to him? ....only joking

So far, no one voting (actually guessing) for a Barrera KO or decision win ?? Even if he's able to "wobble" Amir on several occassions ??

So I think it's only Barrera thinking he can still win since he decided to continue fighting on... Hope Barrera a member of this forum so that he can vote for himself...

Oppss... the poll was gone when my 2 threads were merged... Anyway here's the latest saved results from that poll:

I said before that I will not vote in this, I like to think Barrera would have caught him, but Khan was taking advantage of the situation offered him.

Who knows, Saddoboxer?? I just like to think of the fight as void and leave it at that.

Well I'm just trying to stir your wild imagination... Were you at any moment in that fight thinking that Barrera has a chance to land that big one?? Specially that moment when MAB wobbled Amir...

the fact that he did wobble him makes it even more frustrating - are you reading the other threads?

Like Barrera said after the fight, it should have been stopped when the cut happened as it was clear he wouldn't complete the fight. The fact that it was Barrera a tough old proven legend probably worked against him in the end as the ref and ringside doctor probably gave him more leniency than they would for an ordinary fighter.

You leave my wild imagination out of this!

There was always that chance. Barrera seemed to wobble Khan with shots that for me were not fully set. Being on the back foot and unable to see made it difficult to lauch effective, meaningful attacks though.

Barrera would throw and immediately be blinking away or having to reset by wiping away the blood.

I do think Khan would have slowed down and that would have provided more opportunities for Barrera. But it's a crazy notion to think of that fight going into the 9th or the 12th round. It's mentalism of the highest order.

As someone said earlier, he would have bled to death! Well, probably not...but you see what I mean?

haha. I can understand people thinking Khan by decision but Khan by KO? with those pitty patty punches?
