Round-by-Round - Amir Khan vs. Billy Dib - 12 July 2019
Re: Round-by-Round - Amir Khan vs. Billy Dib - 12 July 2019
So did the fight happen? Did Khan win? You guys have an amazing tendency to go on and on for pages without being clear what the hell is happening in the fight which I thought was supposed to be the point of a RBR thread.

Rd4 stoppage. Dropped Dib twice in fight. Towel came in. Good speed. Missed a lot but you can’t tell when he’s fast.

Thanks. Somehow I had a feeling that Dib would make it out of the first 3. I had picked Khan to win by KO between Rounds 4 and 6 on Boxing Prophet. I knew Dib had no business making it past 3, but I suspected he would anyway.

This bonus fight is pretty alright.
Well, compared to the trash I've had to endure so far

Khan earned every penny of that
£7 Million there. What a tough and hardy battle it was. I don’t think either man will be the same after this.

Gutted I missed this, apparently it was a classic. Production, MC, the anticipation (Fury-Peter), the action. All hail king khan

Re: Round-by-Round - Amir Khan vs. Billy Dib - 12 July 2019
Khan looked to have most of his old speed back in this one, so I'm now thinking it was apprehension more than age that slowed him down against Crawford.
Dib was throwing from downtown and then falling onto counters, when he should've been rolling in with his hands high to unload up close, using single jabs and feints to initiate. He made it about as easy as Khan could've hoped for, constantly presenting a nice big target to spear. Well done to the man for trying, but he was too small for someone without elite infighting skills.
Khan-Brook makes a lot of sense right now. Brook's on the verge of retirement, while Khan's stuck between easy wins and stoppage losses.
