Dumb OP or short memory. Garcia was the prohibitive underdog going into this fight.guy had been knocked out cold and hurt multiple time by left hookers
had just lost to an admitted cheat
had that rematch postponed twice
******ly honors his obligation and agrees to fight replacement garcia
gets koed by left hooker
garcia out there talking like he really did something by knocking out that khan is pathetic.
trying to hold up that win and say khan is more dangerous against floyd is so transparent its laughable!Comment

Yeah I would say so.
It's not because Khan is necessarily a better fighter, or at least wouldn't win between the two.
But Khan was a proven commodity at world level and a double world champion (or should be) when Garcia fought him. He also had a very good resume.
None of those things can really be said for Matthysse.Comment

Yeah it's bollocks.
As I said in this thread, people were saying Garcia was a cherrypick for Khan and he was tailor made.Comment

Yea I can't say I was exactly correct, but I am not disappointed in what I said about that fight at all. I remember that post now, I was thinking of a different one I made and in that thread I know very few even gave Garcia a chance.
Most thought Garcia was going to get wrecked on, where I slipped up was I though Garcia was an alright boxer which would give Khan problems allowing Garcia to land, what I did not think was that Garcia had that much of a punch (I didn't think he was a Malinaggi but maybe a Bradley type puncher). Now it was Khan who was still shaky but it had been a while since he had been stopped and Garcia just did't seem like that guy to break that streak.
I still don't think Garcia is that big a puncher, but his countering is better than I thought which is how he hurt Khan so badly I reckon.Comment
