Khan Vs Garcia your opininions

qari13y ago

Well i personally thought Khan was going to do a job on him,and it looked that way for 2 and a half rounds however if you look threw the fight again you see Danny Garcia landing a few real heavy shots evry now and again and the punch that clocked Khan was a beauty,i think kenny should have stoppd it there but he let it continue and that showed khan has a heart as he came back in the fourth and landed a few shots buh we all knew danny just needed to land 1 more punch and that would send khan down. Look at the end of round 3 Khan is basically out on his feet Kenny Bayliss has to keep him up from falling down his legs and body wer basically disconnected he was running all over the place. Khan has real fast hands but the way he fights is stupid he dosent have 1punch ko power he should use his jab and only flurry when he sees his oppenents are gettin tired or open to be hit like against Zab Judah he fought his best fight used all his skills without gettin hit too much and usin his speed n combos but against Danny he would flurry and still be stood in the pocket and Danny made him pay real bad. All of this from a Amir Khan fan.

Khan can't take a punch and he recovers slowly. Everyone knows it so either they try to pressure him or waits for him to open up like garcia did and then times him with a big counter. If Khan want's to continue fighting he must have enormous discipline, not take any chances, never open up unnecessarily. He must become really boring safety first all the time, staying behind the jab at all times and moving. He should hire Emmanuel Steward instead of Roach.

Danny Garcia is a counter puncher, he needed time to get his timing right, so Khan was going to win the early rounds. Khan won round 1, by round 2, Garcia was hitting Khan with some over hand right, showing he's timing is getting there but Khan still wins the round, round 3 Garcia was landing power punches & making Khan miss at times, perfectly times left hook puts Khan on queer street & round 4 he just punched him around the ring, then ref stops it after 2 more KD's. Had the round 3 knock down not happen, Garcia would've stopped him late regardless, his timing was getting there, figured out Khan & made adjustments. Garcia ring IQ surprised me.

Khan could had tried to box and it would had been the same results. Danny looked very comfortable countering Khan. In the first round you already was seeing what was going to be like the next few rounds. Danny is good in the pocket. A rematch would be the same with Khan getting caught again in some point. When Khan is in the offensive mode he is not smart. He throws fast punches like an amateur

Danny was on his way to getting KTFO...... Angel also payed off Khan's corner into not splashing water on Khan to revive him after running into the hypejob's left hand in the third.

Khan doesn't have the power to make boxers respect him when they are in the ring. If he moves up to 147 he chin MAY get better and it may not. His power will be less of a factor than it is now if/when he does move up. He was overrated by a country thirsty for another boxing star. The commentators were disgusting fight night I may add. It seems like ever since the bradley-pacquiao fight they have gotten worse. Turrible.

Lets be honest. Garcia was picked to make Khan look good. Goldenboy was thinking that Garcia was tailor made for Khan. He didnt have the fastest hand speed, Didnt have the fastest foot speed, wasn't the biggest puncher, doesnt move his head much either. Khan might be in the top 5 when it comes to hand speed but he relies too much on it. He still makes an awful amount of mistakes that a 25 year old shouldn't be making. He doesn't move his head hence the reason Garcia didn't have to even look while throwing that left hook. He knew where Amirs head would be because Amir doesn't move it. Same thing with Martinez vs Williams. Martinez didnt even have to look because Paul doesnt move his head either. Also Amir jumps in way too much leaving his head straight up in the air to be countered. I told my friend from the very first round that Garcia might stop Khan because he was punching with him and he did hit him with some good solid shots from the very first round but HBO bias commentary wasn't giving him ANY credit for those punches. Only Kellerman was mentioning that Garcia hit Khan with a few good counters.

As I watched it, I thought it was unfolding just how I expected it too, Khan being too quick for Garcia. In the 3rd round I thought Khan looked a bit lost a few times but I still thought he would be OK in the end. When he got dropped It happened so quickly and out of no where I was shocked for a second, then when I saw his eyes in the corner I thought he's done, Garcia is going to blast him out of there. He got up and recovered really well considering, but he was just one clean shot away from possibly a defeat he would have struggled to come back from. I over estimated Khan in this fight. Im not that sold on Danny Garcia, but I am now more sure that Khan needs to make some serious changes if he plans to stick around at this level.

It was pretty terrific stuff by Garcia when you go back and watch. He knew exactly what he was doing every round. He observed the speed in the 1st, began getting his timing in the 2nd, and had it down in the 3rd. It was impressive. Also, the 4th round was amazing.

I thought it was a very good win for Garcia no doubt. I think khan underestimated his power and thought he would walk right trough his punches. IMO Garcia was getting tagged and schooled up until he landed that shot. Them it was all down hill for Amir. On a side note I strongly feel that Freddy roach is done as a trainer. His condition is getting worst and it is really noticable.

Garcia has got a big future if he keeps on winning,but khan his plans to retire at 28 are a joke hell probs be on the elite scence by then and IF he wins evry fight. However he may be put into a title fight soon as champions will want his name on there resume after seeing what Garcia did to him they may see him as a easy win with a big name and big money atleast the future of boxing is looking better from the previous robberies the sport has seen. I got respect for Danny takin the fight and doing what he did shows massive heart from him as this was his first step up to a fresh young hungry fighter and what he did was crazy.

I dont understand that i got complacent comments from khan? Surely from recieving Garcias first punch, he could tell if the punches would be hard enough to ko him, so he should be cautious from the outset. Garcia landed a few before the ko, so khan should have known to play things safe. Khan sometimes thinks hes in a 100metre race, but really should be thinking more along the lines of a 5ooo metre race.

It's very simple really.Khan is not as good as previously assumed, while Garcia is better than previously assumed.:boxing:

I thought Kahn was going to win and win but it's hard to count out a puncher against Amir who's so chinny, although I thought it was be easy win for Kahn. I rewatched the fight, Kahn was boxing pretty damn good first two rounds but you could see Garcia trying time him, that shot Garcia landed, no such thing as lucky punches but boy he threw that shot without looking and landed not on the chin but right on the neck. Props to Kahn though, that shot was huge and still managed to duke it out stupidly so, for another what 1 minute 30 seconds. Huge heart. As for Garcia good win for him, big things coming up for him. I still ain't sold on him though.

Garcia kept throwing that winging left hand all night. IT WAS NOT A LUCKY SHOT. Anytime Khan threw his jab and right hand, the left hand from Garcia followed. Corner should have picked that up.

I thought Khan was going to win and win comfortably. I felt like that right up until I saw his sparring but even then I was fairly confident he would win. The thing is, I don't even think Garcia is that good but Khan just blew that fight. He fought the wrong style and once he got knocked down he didn't even attempt to adjust. Fair play to Garcia though because I (along with quite a few) wrote him off. Massive props to him. Khan needs to find a new trainer. Roach is the wrong fit for him.
