Done well tonight Kahn, Boxed a clever fight. Always in control.

Impressed with Amir tonight.

Good fight by Amir, done well and didnt put a foot wrong

However, the other lad didnt seem interested in attacking him. Was he scared? He was on the defensive throughout the fight and seemed to be content to just last 12 rounds with him

That, as well as the fact that he just couldn't get near him because of Khan's constant jab, using his reach advantage

He's a little rat basically so couldn't get near Khan.

i think that is all he wanted to do - Khans camp know he needed a test and if khan leathered him inside 5 rounds he would prob come unde rmore critiscm for fighting a has been, I wouldn't be suprised if St Clair was told to make it a 12 round fight, not that i think boxing is corrupt or anything

I seem to have seen a completely different fight?

I saw one guy under instruction not to fight back and the other having a 12 round sparring session.

It was a farce.

Exactly. I notice people talking about Amir's reach advantage but watch it again. The other lad didnt get aggressive once. Even towards the last 3/4 rounds when it was clear that Amir had killed him on points you would have expected to see St Clair try to knock him out. But no he carried on defending

Big time Professional Boxing is a farce

Well, I thought I saw St.Clair catch Amir once of twice flush on the jaw with swinging hooks. Maybe I was imagining things.

He can never win can he? If he knocked him out it would have been a set-up, if he won on points it was a fix....
