Brainy Posted 8 December 2007 Posted 8 December 2007 Now Infact ive just heard from a mate that he's just beat Earl in 72 seconds.
stez Posted 8 December 2007 Author Posted 8 December 2007 to be honest, i watched it, i was being a bit saucy, i half hope ricky knocks mayweather out that fast, so i can go back to sleep graham earl's moaning about the fight being stopped to early....even though he was all over the floor getting knocked about the place!
Bert Posted 8 December 2007 Posted 8 December 2007 How could you not tell that Stez was joking here. Some phenomenal punches from Khan.
WetFlannel Posted 8 December 2007 Posted 8 December 2007 i turned it on and it had started, walked out of the room to get a packet of crisps, come back to find its finished!
David O'Leary Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 From BBC Sport... Khan floors Earl in first round Amir Khan wasted little time in ending Graham Earl's challenge Amir Khan celebrated his 21st birthday by demolishing Graham Earl in 72 seconds to retain his Commonwealth lightweight title in Bolton. Khan floored Earl with a sweeping left inside the first minute and again after unleashing a barrage of blows when the challenger got to his feet. The referee stepped in with just one minute 12 seconds on the clock. "I wasn't surprised, I trained very hard. He was number one in Britain and I wanted to beat him," said Khan. "I knew he was under pressure after the first knockdown and I just went for it. I was fighting the best fighter of my career. I knew I had it in the tank." It was the second defence for Khan in only his 15th professional fight. Earl, 29, was returning to the ring for the first time since a brutal WBO interim world title defeat at the hands of Australian Michael Katsidis in February. "I felt alright," said the fighter from Luton. "They shouldn't have stopped that fight. "My head was clear. It's boxing, you've got to take shots, you don't just jump in and stop it straight away. "(Khan's) good but it weren't deserved, it weren't earned." Khan claimed he would fight for a world title "tomorrow" if he had the chance, and said: "It's up to (promoter) Frank Warren - but I'll fight for a world title tomorrow and prove everyone wrong."
Ultra Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 to be honest, i watched it, i was being a bit saucy, i half hope ricky knocks mayweather out that fast, so i can go back to sleep graham earl's moaning about the fight being stopped to early....even though he was all over the floor getting knocked about the place! Earl was taking a right pasting. If the ref hadn't have intervened he could have ended up in hospital. Khan's shown too many signs of believing his own hype in recent months but last night he was the real deal. He could well be a world title contender next year.
Nath Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 Im just glad i didn't pay all that money to go and watch it. Never the less, great punches by Khan.
Nath Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 Challenge himself sometime soon? Im waiting for his invite. I would be happy to show him up in front of the world
Raj Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 Wonder if he'd beat Hatton Erm slight weight difference problem there i think!!! Khan would have to bulk up another 12 lbs of muscle. Khan can( ) be even better than Hamed. he has verything Hamed did at his prime but Hamed was TOO cocky and aroogant. And he ended up with too many clinger -oners! I think Khan is not only an excellent boxer but a great example of how to live your life. Top man
Nath Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 Wonder if he'd beat Hatton That has to be the most stupidest thing said to date on this forum
Tevez Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 Who is the next paper boy Khan's promoters are going to pick off the street?
Nath Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 Who is the next paper boy Khan's promoters are going to pick off the street? It's gonna be you Mr Wilkes
Brainy Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 That has to be the most stupidest thing said to date on this forum Not really.. he just doesn't know about the weight differences. He's said stupider.
Raj Posted 9 December 2007 Posted 9 December 2007 That has to be the most stupidest thing said to date on this forum Erm i dont know.... Who is the next paper boy Khan's promoters are going to pick off the street? You do realise Khan is only 21. he has only been a pro for 2/3 years. he beat the No1 in Britain yday. Do you honestly think Frank warren will give him a world title asap. Remember the likes oh hamed,Tyson??? Too much too soon. There is no rush. He's gotta keep fighting and learning his trade and then when he DOES get the World title,win it and keep it. God some people are so impatient!!!
Tommy G Posted 10 December 2007 Posted 10 December 2007 The lad is quality, and modest. shame he's from Bolton though
Daz.I Posted 10 December 2007 Posted 10 December 2007 Challenge himself sometime soon? I disagree with this bigtime, Graeme Earl is a brilliant boxer.Amir Kahn is just a great professional outfit If he beat mayweather tomorrow doesn't mean Mayweathers crap it just shows the sheir class of the lad. World Champion Definitlely, Brilliant! Wonder if he'd beat Hatton This is the daftest post ever, be serious Amie Kahns a un-experienced so to speak up and coming champion. Hattons a experienced warrior you can't compare the two sorry pal, one ways 2 stone wet through the others a machine.
