    He looked better against lower opposition, Duhhh! He still have huge gaps in his defense! Danny will knock him out again! The few times Molina got agressive, he connected clean!

      Good observation.

      He does have chicken legs, and his defensive/concentration lapses are very costly.

        Yeah, that and like Jim Watt says his chin is too high and he pulls straight back.

        Garcia going left-hook happy again would probably take Khan out again in the rematch.

        I think Khan's a better fighter but that left-hook gets in. Prescott done it long before Garcia.

          He is too predictable. He has very fast hands but is not the most difficult guy to time. A good fighter can time him easily when he attacks.

          What I like about him tho is his incredible stamina, he can throw tons of fast punches for 12 rounds but like I said he is not the hardest guy to time despite his speed.

            Agreed, but it should be common sense that its not going to help your chin. I'm talking about working on his legs improving other facets of his game. Hence why I said besides, not having a great chin. Liven up and pay closer attention to the details.

            And Slightlydazed. Yes his stance is always off because I believe he's still stuck in a somewhat amateur style with quick figitty movements so you're right on that but the proportion of his torso to his legs is off andadds to why he bobbles as you say. Besides his fundamental flaws. Agreed?
