agree!!! just because he says it and hbo promotes him and talk wonder of him doesn't make him all that,,,there are a lot of boxers who have faced good fighters and don't brag and say they are elite who are better than khan,who have faced better guys,some of these guys like khan just have all the backing of big promoters,hbo and have a big mouth and all of a sudden that makes them good? while others are humble yet quietly face tough guys but never get the recognition they deserveGarcia closed his eyes while punching. Khan closed his eyes while falling on his back. Khan needs to fight his way to a rematch. Maidana, Prescott or Ortiz even
if they fight in solo boxeo tacate. How many upsets is that for GBP? HBO are whores. If you believe that Khan is an elite fighter you are a victim of fraud. Calling you self elite doesn't make you one.Comment

Why are people making it sound like Garcia was getting dominated for 10 rounds, and then all of a sudden scored some miracle stoppage? Khan won the first 2 rounds, and then Garcia blew the door off its hinges in the 3rd and 4th. The punch wasn't lucky, Garcia judged the distance properly, tucked his chin and fired off the left hook. If Khan wasn't so focused on offense, he would've been able to parry/block/slip or at least anticipate and mentally brace himself for the punch.
Khan doesn't deserve a rematch, he needs to get back in line and fight the likes of Alvarado/Rios/Matthysse or go up to 147 and fight Brook/Vargas/Malignaggi/Zaveck. Hell, a Maidana rematch wouldn't be too bad either. Khan is back to contender status imho.Comment

YESSS!!!!!! Garcia is undefeated, if he lost, u think gbp, would have said,"Nooo... He got his first loss, we need a rematch asap"..No way ..Khan would go to ww, to fight Floyd....but now they want Khan to avenge his loss....I was just thinking about this last night, and Angle is saying every single thing I hoped he would say!!!Mandalay Bay, Las Vegas - Shortly after Amir Khan's shocking fourth round TKO loss to his underdog challenger Danny Garcia, trainer Freddie Roach expressed his desire for a rematch. Khan started off well, winning the first two rounds easily before getting caught with a left hook in the third round. It was a shot that he would never recovered from. The fight was waived off by referee Kenny Bayless after Khan was knocked down for a third time in the fourth round. He rose to his feet but Bayless felt he couldn't continue. Roach said that he agreed with the stoppage.

The first punch that Garcia threw that put Khan down was on his jaw and neck area.i think people r overrating garcias power a bit here, all three times khan went down were from punches to the ear or close to temple and thats how he lost his balance bcuz if u look at round four garcia lands several punches on khans face and throws them hard and khan didnt even buckle but the shots to the head r the ones that made him lose his balance,, i just dont think he hits as hard as some r sayingLast edited by GRUSTLER; 07-15-2012, 02:19 PM.Comment

That's your smart response? To copy a line from Adam Sandler's Billy Madison? Seriously dude, either go and ask your mom for some spare change so you can buy some candy.....or ask her to clean your butt. Leave this forum for the real boxing fans who know about the sport and what we are talking about.What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.Comment

Khan ducked the Maidana rematch which he should have taken since it was a controversial decision.Comment

This aint amateur boxing, 2-0 doesnt mean ish when your opponent already started to get the timing down since round 1, go watch basketball or some sports with scores so youre never lost.Don't let these guys tell you otherwise but you are right for the most part, I wouldn't call Garcia's punch lucky though. Khan was leaving himself open all night.
But it was obvious, to me at least, that Khan was the better of the two fighters. He just got caught with a big punch. He was up 2-0.Comment

The only people who actually believe that Khan is more than an average boxer are those who either based their boxing analysis or preference based on the media hype, or are totally unaware about what defines a great boxer. Taking on every opponent out there doesn't make you the greatest...taking on every fighter out there and ACTUALLY BEATING THEM is what makes you the greatest.and ur the one lookn like a jackass bc u missed my point completely. my point is that Khan fights eveyone doesnt duck a challenge and is always in exciting fights. to call him a bum is ridiculous. ur a f***n bum for sayn that. he's a bum bc he lost some fights? lmfao
we should applaud fighters like khan who are always wiullin to fight anyone and give the fans an action packed fight. not bradley who ducks a fight the fans wanted to hold out for a big payday. was that smart business move. of course. but why as fans shud we even care about that. we should only cvare about seeing the fights that we wanna see. we all wanted to see bradley v khan, and 1 fightr was willin to do it and one wasnt. end of story. khan cudve held out of tough fights too bc a fight wit mayweather was just as much of a possibility for him at that point, but he didnt. he'll take on whoever and we as fans shud applaud thatComment
