Terence Crawford vs. Amir Khan - 20 April 2019
Re: Terence Crawford vs. Amir Khan - 20 April 2019
Khan is done. Nobody is going to want to watch this shit again.
His future is retirement or gatekeeper, nothing more.

Re: Terence Crawford vs. Amir Khan - 20 April 2019
Kinda sad to see Khan go out like that. The thing that stood out for me though, and i thought i noticed it in the Vargas fight; was Khan just isnt as quick as he used to be. His speed in the past would negate his technical flaws somewhat, but now he's slowed down (despite still being pretty quick) he's even more vunerable.

No, he was trying, but Khan was awkward. The KO was coming quickly.

Everyone in the world who sees the replay on the news and is even vaguely familiar with the male anatomy is going to say "that punch didn't land on his balls".
It's sort of on the upper leg. And you quit from that? He's going to regret this. Obviously panicked knowing what was coming.

I hope Khan just retires now. Crawford-Spence is the fight that really needs to happen.

Khan's talking about being smashed in the cup and the ring girls are still smiling!

I think he broke his hand and that was a way out. You could see him shaking that right hand out and then complaining about in the corner.overhand_right wrote: ↑21 Apr 2019, 00:43 Everyone in the world who sees the replay on the news and is even vaguely familiar with the male anatomy is going to say "that punch didn't land on his balls".

Spermatic cord runs down into the balls, dude. Trust me — it hurts! But he didn't take the 5 minutes, that's the trouble.overhand_right wrote: ↑21 Apr 2019, 00:43It's sort of on the upper leg. And you quit from that? He's going to regret this. Obviously panicked knowing what was coming.

But he didn't blame his hand, he blamed it on the low blow.Nondescript wrote: ↑21 Apr 2019, 00:45 I think he broke his hand and that was a way out. You could see him shaking that right hand out and then complaining about in the corner.
It was low, but it wasn't anywhere near the family jewels.

Yeah, but its more convenient to blame it on the alleged nut shot, than to blame it on the hand.overhand_right wrote: ↑21 Apr 2019, 00:47 But he didn't blame his hand, he blamed it on the low blow.

Thats what i saw. You could see him trying to shake it out, and then when he got to the corner, he immediately mentions it to Hunter,

Gotta say.
TC didn’t look THAT a good in there. Khan was quite awkward for him at times.

The shot was on the leg, maybe the cup moved and trapped his bollocks. I don't know. It wasn't a full blooded bollock shot that's for sure.
Crawford was starting to do his thing - You could see Khan was struggling to hang with him throughout. In the 5th Crawford was starting to hit Khan with some heavy artillery. Khan was heading for a knock out.

When Hunter said they wanted to stop, I really think the referee should have been extra clear and said "Why not take the full five minutes and then see how you feel?" Cooler heads could have perhaps prevailed?
Re: Terence Crawford vs. Amir Khan - 20 April 2019
That guys a total twat. Knows fornicate all about anything. I bet he's never been near a ring either. (Not that it matters if a pundit competed, but he's a cheeky pudendum for passing judgment so easily)

Re: Terence Crawford vs. Amir Khan - 20 April 2019
Well that was a bit suspect, puts a massive dent in the warrior rep that Khan has gathered over the years, defo a low blow why didn't Khan get/take 5 mins to recover, it came out of nowhere I'm shellshocked, never believed Khan would quit like that, it was a tough night for him, nightmare start for him, down from a cracking right then a left, could've been over early for Khan, getting clipped the same way as he did against Alvarez, getting caught with a big right over his lazy jab but he done well to recover, things quietened down a bit, became a chess match, Crawford stayed patient switched stances several times and by the 4th he was starting to break Khan down and chase him around the ring
Khan was still having a bit of success with single shots, caught Crawford with a couple of quick right hands but the ending came out of nowhere, shocking from all involved actually, the ref, Khan and Virgil Hunter, should've been giving the 5 minutes to recover, shame as Khan's stock will have fallen now that he'll be perceived as a quitter, Crawford was coming on stronger every round, maybe Khan sensed a way out

I don’t get it, it didn’t look like the punch was in the dick per say but we’ve all been smashed with a football in the cock before and needed a min. Cmon Amir it’s bad at first, feel a bit winded but you get 5 bloody mins to recover. Jesus
