Jelly legs, Amir. He wasn`t convincing when he was telling the ref that he was ok.

Haha you'd think so, but Garcia was right, he caught Morales a few times with hooks like that and didn't put him away. He caught Khan with one and it was done

With or without the tag, answer my point if you can......
Edited to add, Hash tags were not invented by twitter, they have been around a lot longer and have been used a very long time.
Hashtag as a literary device were invented by Twitter. The hash symbol was used previously but had different connotations.

Khan's "success" has all been down to his promoters and his ethnicity, simple as that. The promoters hand picked his fights purely on a ticket sales basis, a money maker if you like. Anyone who knows anything about boxing could see he couldn't take a decent shot. He was knocked on his arse by that Scottish lad early on in his career with a half decent punch and I still think that opponent was paid off to lose that fight. If Khan had lost then, the promoters Asian curry train was over before it got started.

He seemed shocked when it was called off, but Bayliss gave him a long count in the third and if Freddy Roach had got his way, he have retired him at the end of the round.
Khan is a good fighter, but he seems hell bent on proving he can take a punch. Sadly it doesnt appear he can.

A good fighter? Maybe at British or European level but no way is he world class.

Exactly he's good, but that's all and I think if he moved up to welterweight Kell Brook would also give him problems. Talk of mega fights was always silly and over ambitious.
