He nearly took the head off Ortiz as well.

That's not really anything to boast about.

Ortiz really wasn't all that good.

Collazo was spoon fed to Ortiz and Ortiz got has arse handed to him once again.

A lot of pressure on Khan in this fight. Loose and he's finished as top class boxer, he'd be as well retiring

I must have mixed that fight up with another one!

The Castillo fight?

Anyone watch the 24/7 shows with Mayweather and feel slightly uneasy almost sorry for the him?

I'd hazard a guess and say that the vast, vast majority of the people in his entourage are there because of the money and nothing else.

Imagine going on a night out with your 'friends' and knowing that you'd be footing the bill for everything. Must be hard to take.

wow! Khan has an extra three and a half inches reach to his opponent.

That's just about the length of a clenched fist!

[Vermilion]

That is a very good card! Has the potential to be an epic evening of entertainment.

From my ****e memory this was a sunday night on ITV stayed up late to watch it. Epic fight

[red g]

any idea what time Khan will be on tonight roughly?

[Chris]

Programme starts in the States at 2am our time and theres two fights before him so be lucky if he's in the ring by half 3.

First fight Floyd has been involved in in years.

My scorecard had it 115 - 115

Judges score it 114 - 114, 117 - 111 & 116 - 112 for Floyd

Khan was impressive earlier in the evening. Collazo offered nothing of note. Khan's speed is still there at 147 but his apparent lack of power may be an issue in fights to come

I had the Mayweather fight even after 6 rounds. I don't think anyone can say with conviction that either of them were ahead after 6 imo. In fact even after the 8th round I had it 4-4. I don't believe Maidana won a round after that. On my cards I scored it 116-112 (Floyd 8-4) but I wouldn't argue if others scored it 115-113 (Floyd 7-5). The difference between the two is just one round.

It was a competitive fight and I wouldn't be surprised if there is a rematch. I think Mayweather would adjust and win easier next time and won't be surprised by Maidana. He does fight a little dirty, rabbit punches etc but he pushed Mayweather close. The 17 pound difference in weight on the night gave Floyd something to think about.

Enjoyed that. Floyd doesnt get enough credit for being a hard cunt. Maidana surprised me, I thought it'd be a 10-12 round schooling but he looks like he's improving all the time under Garcia.

[RichC]

He's not scared to get involved when he needs to. I thought he won the fight but hats off to Maidana he was much better than I expected him to be and really gave Mayweather a fight of it.

Interesting to see when Mayweather and Khan actually fight now, I can't see it being until next year now.
