[PRBOXINGCOTTO]

your late on this boxingscene but garcia should have fought his mandatory instead looks like gbp will set him up against khan which i think he is 1 fight away from being ready for if garcia beats khan hopefully its the last we here of his *****y ass

[Mr. Philadel]

people sleeping on Danny he could very well win this fight a very live underdog props to Khan for not taking a soft opponent

this ^^^^^^^^^^^^

I didn't wanna see this fight RIGHT NOW!!...but it is what it is!!

Garcia looked very cautious vs a washed up super bantam weight in his last fight and the cdecison wasnt really that wide in his favour.

Khan struggles with punchers or gives that aplly pressure. Garica is neither and the perfect opponent for Amir to look good against. Khan in an easy decision.

[Bossy]

I'm excited to see this fight. I think it will be good for Danny. I agree, he looked very nervous against Morales, but he held his own. Garcia is a heavy puncher, Khan is quick, it will be an interesting fight (for me at least) to watch.

Khan's just confirmed that the fight will be in Vegas.

I like this fight, Danny's coming to win he'll have his moments although I think this fight could be a little too soon for him.

The 14th will be an epic night of boxing for the Brits, first we get the Haye/Chisora fight then cross over to Vegas baby

Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer has advised BoxingScene.com that a deal has been reached for Amir "King" Khan (26-2, 18KOs) to challenge WBC junior welterweight champion Danny Garcia (23-0, 14KOs) in an HBO televised main event on July 14th, either from the Honda Center in Anaheim, California or the Mandalay Bay in Las Vegas. Heavyweight prospect Seth Mitchell (25-0-1, 19KOs) will open up the broadcast against Johnathan Banks (28-1-1, 18KOs).

Surely its about time for Mitchell to step up in opposition? I thought GB were trying to arrange a fight with Grant...

It was clear in his last fight that he still needs a lot of improvement to take on world class fighters. Give him a fight or two to see how much he learned from his Witherspoon fight. No need to rush Mitchell. He is still a "football player" trying to box.
Khan-Garcia will be entertaining. I think Garcia has a chance but Khan might be on another level. I can't wait.

[Uncle Rodge]

I like this fight, a lot!

Great night of boxing. WAR KHAN

[Hougigo]

Well, great to see the WBC shitting all over their rules again

Can we remember where Seth Mitchell is in his career? Never did anything with boxing until very very late in his life, has really stepped up hims competition in Witherspoon, Imbragamov and Banks in recent fights, and is looking to consistently improve with each fight.

Kid is NOWHERE ready for top level but he and his handlers are doing a good job putting him in with names and skilled fighters that can challenge and pose a threat.

Give him some time.

i agree. i think mitchell looks like a good one. he has power in both hands, throws to the body & power combinations, shows ring intelligence(holding on to chazz when hurt)& seems to be a quick learner. wins over ibragimov & witherspoon are solid wins & beating banks adds to his resume. i think mitchell is already further ahead in the division then banks when it comes to level of competition. i think banks & mitchell is a pretty even matchup. both are at the same points in their careers. i hope mitchell wins because we will see more of his fights on HBO & on network television.
