    I've got it on.

    See a Khan stoppage around rounds 9/10. But saying that, I thought Audley would pull a win out of the bag tonight and couldn't have been more wrong.

    I'm watching too, think Khan will win but not too confident in saying that.

    Audley looked an idiot again, hope that's it for him now.

    Ogogo's ko was a lovely shot

    Khan late on or on points OR Diaz if he connects properly.

    Khan won every round other than the 4th (and went down), 10th, 11th and 12th.

    He's such a talented boxer, but so susceptible to the left hook he's always going to get tagged at some point. He took some heavy punishment but was smarter with how he handled it.

    Won on points.

    Cheers LTT. Has his chin improved? His talent is brilliant but you can read him like the guardian at times.

    There was nothing wrong with his chin before tonight (in my opinion). The knockdown was a bit flash, but then in round 11 it was like the Maidana fight all over again!

    Well .... I reckon he got lucky ..... The judge who scored it by 1 to khan was probably nearer the mark, than the other two who had khan by 2 and 3 ..... khan is big box office, and put bums on seats ..... khan is great to watch, as he doesn't do dull fights !!!!!
    Realisticly, with boxing "politics" Diaz had to knock him out to get the decision .... as he didn't do the former, therefore he did not get the later .... no suprises here ..... i'd have given the fight to Diaz, i thought he owned Khan in the 2nd half of fight .... but that's boxing ...... judo is no differenet ... the Japs always get the "decisions" .....

    Khan needs to quit before he gets seriously hurt. He is the most over-hyped boxer of recent time, in a sport that it is regularly over-hyped. He keeps talking about learning and developing, but it's same old Amir Khan every time. Carries his right hand too low, has a poor defence, he's chinny, and he's always worried about his chin because he knows that it's dreadful. He's quick - but his people and the CEO at GBP are talking about him fighting Mayweather. He's going to get properly hurt at some point.

    LOL ..... good point ......all boxers need to quit before they get seriously hurt ..... knowing when is usually the difficulty ...... yes he got put over, but he got up and held on ... a very close fight .... time to hang up the gloves? possibly, but not while he can still make £££ for the "industry" ...... it's not going to happen
