Anouncer stated "limmond broke his jaw" i think if he looks closely he will see Khan broke it

Just seeing that put-down from Limmond again on replay :O ouch! I'd say we can't say Amir's never taken a decent punch or three any more!

The thing with Khan is that its really easy to underestimate him cos of his image out of the ring.

He is a very good fighter, great hand speed, good power and clearly he can take a punch. My only worry for him is that the press etc having built him will try and knock him. He just needs to quietly develop with fights like last night.

Great stuff though, good for the sport and actually a great rebuff to some of the idiots that think all asian / muslim people are bad!

I think last nights showed how far he still has to go. If a world champion level boxer had been in the position limmond was in after the punch it would all have been over. Hes coming along nicely though, just hope he doesnt rush into a world title fight and get hammered.
