He's KO'd more solid guys than Garcia and was a huge favorite coming into the fight. Had Khan won tonight, people would be talking about how Garcia went life and death with Morales.
I said before the fight that I wouldn't be surprised if Garcia won, but let's not act like Garcia was some huge favorite because Khan never beat anyone.
The average person thought Khan would wipe the floor with Garcia
Oh yea, Khan dropped Maidana, Peterson and stopped Maliggnaggi. Not say Paulie's a beast, but he did go 12 rounds with Cotto on a fractured cheek. He's a tough guy.
BTW, I don't count Khans TKO over Barrera and Judah.
I'm just saying, Khan has shown power in the past.Comment

Don't get it twisted, Khan still has the superior speed and skills, but Garcia's ability to take advantage of Khan's defense or lack there of, along with a china-chin gave him his best win to date.
Khan's two real losses come at knock outs. Dudes finished.Comment

His problem is he has no chin, not trying to get up too early.Khan needs to learn to take the full 8 seconds before he gets up.
His problem is every time he's dropped, he tries to jump right up. That's why he was falling all over the place after the first knockdown.
But after the 3rd knockdown, Bayless asked him to come forward and he did while saying he was ok.
When he get's hit he loses his senses. He was folded in two with that first left hook, it was Prescott like. Regardless of getting up 4 seconds later or 8 seconds later, he was done.
Khan was looking at Bayless with his head slumping and his legs wobbling, he was on the verge of being seriously damaged.Comment

Well us Boxing fans knew Danny, and knew he is a philly fighter who is gonna come to fight, and stay to fight. Thats just how they make them philly fighters. I see a few talkin Garcia/Mathysse. I'd like to see that bout. Im willin to bet that Amir is done with JWW, and will be at WW in his next fight.
Say Rome is Danny left handed and fighting ortho? It seems his lefts really hurt Amir, but he dropped a really flush shot on Amir in the 3rd, and Amir took it pretty well, plus he looked a little off balanced at times, which could either be Amir's speed, or him being a southpaw, fighting ortho. Just curious to know.Comment
