Hunter wanted the fight stopped. Figured it was going to go from bad to worse anyways.
Hunter’s always protecting his fighters.

Could TC have just finished this fight anytime he wanted?
Pretty much a gym session for him.
Anticlimactic as you said, but there were no surprises.

A win by a low blow. If an opponent is injured and cannot continue because of an illegal blow it still counts as a victory. Makes perfect sense. Perfect non-sense.

They called it a TKO because Khan refused to continue the fight in general. Not because of the low blow. That announcer failed announcing that. The quit wasn't because of the low blow. He had 5 minutes to take off, but didn't.

These comments are hilarious. You wanted Khan AWARDED a DQ win for trying to steal a victory from a hip shot? Yes it was low but it CLEARLY missed his balls. Whats wrong with you goofs? You're pissed at Crawford for winning and not pissed at Khan for QUITTING? Getting pissed at the guy who was dominating the fight is...interesting. And stupid.
Khan QUIT.

Can Khan even be bothered with a Kell Brook cash out ?
What would The Truth have done to that Amir tonight ?

Again, it was stopped by Khan's corner.
Virgil Hunter didn't care about the low blow. He wanted Khan out of the fight.
It was not the ref's call. It was Khan's trainer.

Khan QUIT.
I think we're more angry with the ref - at least I am.
It was a clear foul - Khan/Hunter balied.., so it must go to the cards.
Crawford shoulda got a TD win 50-45 for me.

It's a quit yes, but a quit because he was hit low.

I could see what that low blow did, it knocked Khan's cup askew and he couldn't adjust it in public. That's why he couldn't continue. Why was the ref asking him if he wants to continue instead of telling him to take 5 minutes? This was bs. Typical boxing bs.

If Khan and Hunter bailed, it doesn't go to the cards.
They quit. It's a TKO win for Crawford.
If Hunter hadn't called the fight off, Khan would have received 5 minutes.
But the trainer wisely decided that it was pointless. Khan was totally outclassed.

Official result is an accidental low blow. and the ringside doctor stopped the bout - that’s what some members of the the press are saying (I’ve not watched the bout yet).

No Contest. Khan couldn't continue. The pain overcame him.

They "didn't" quit (they did imo) - they "were unable to continue"
Subtle difference.
I don't imagine anyone wanted Khan to skank a DQ win.

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