x2 mate...
A bunch of people with less than 100 posts, and all of those posts have been about Amir Khan (Olympic silver medallist, world champion) in recent years being a "nob" and a "prick"
Khan didn't stop the fight, and he gave McCloskey credit. A rematch would result in a Khan win, he has bigger fish to fry.
No matter what Khan does - beats Bradley, Alexander....whoever - he won't ever get props from 50% of the posters on Boxrec.

Does anyone know if the Buckland fight happened? Got there a few mins after doors opened and didn't see Towers, Kid Galahad or Buckland.

I'm not sure that either side emerges from that video with a great deal of credit.
Right at the start, Khan is respectful but is soon interrupted by McCloskeys team, its only then that he responds and it all gets juvenile and petty.
McCloskeys camp have a genuine grievance, but its hardly Khans fault that the referee and doctor came to a ludicrous decision.
This fight has been a shocker all round. GBP must be wondering what they have got themselves into, Khan must surely be doubting the intelligence of the decisions made by those around him, while Sky will be glad they dodged a bullet.

I see Buckland won, almost nothing about it on the web and boxrec doesn't have the result.
