      I watched it on Sky, but I could imagine Lampley having an ****** when Khan would fire off his lighting fast 1 2's and hit Garcia' gloves.

        nah not really. garcia was slipping and blocking most of khans shots. garcia was landing the hard counters and even had khan wobbling in the 2nd. most of the commentators just suck and think throwing a lot=winning.

          yeah so did i. garcia was countering khan with some very hard shots and even had him wobbled. khan was throwing a ton but mostly hitting gloves.

              Maybe I watched a different fight, but they're bias towards HBO fighters.

                but i don't think he landed more, at least clean solid punches. maybe grazing punches or punches that hit garcia's gloves but those aren't worth much. how do you explain him getting wobbled in the 2nd? that doesn't matter because he landed a couple grazing shots that had no effect at all on garcia?

                  I didn't agree with the stoppage, but Khan was taking too much damage.
                  Yup honestly I put the TV on mute during the second round, my wife told me what was I doing lol. I put the volume back up as soon as I saw the knock down. Lampley is the worst of the crew, Max was the only one seeing Garcia landing punches.

                    I'm rewatching the fight and after the first knockdown HBO saying "Khan didn't do anything wrong"~Steward

                    "That fight didn't hit him on the chin, it hit him on the neck"~Lampley

                    It's like they're making excuses....smh

                      There wasn't anything wrong with the stoppage. Khan had his hands down when Bayless asked him if he wanted to continue to fight.
