The only reason Khan lost is because of the hometown referee's 2 silly point deductions. And finally, Matthysse is nothing compared to Khan's complete shut-out victories against against Judah and Alexander, both of whom already beat Matthysse. Overall, Garcia has only ever had 4 convincing UD/KO victories against world champions, whereas Khan has had 9 convincing UD/KO victories against world champions. Objectively, Garcia's resume doesn't come close to Khan's resume.

    And once again, Garcia isn't even a welterweight. First let the guy move up to welterweight, and at least fight a WW fight or two, before naming him as a potential Floyd candidate. I know you must have a burning hatred for Khan, but stop being so childish and irrational. Naming a LWW who has never fought at WW before as the top potential candidate for the WW king, that's just plain delusional.
    Garcia sucker punched Khan doe!

      Loooooooool. Lucky sucker punch???? WTF????? What planet do you loons live on?

      Garcia had started catching him with the left hook from about round 2 iirc. Khan wasn't beating the living crap out of anything.

        Both men wouldn't add much to his legacy. About the same probably!

          CompuBox Stats: Khan vs Garcia

          Khan was clearly dominating Garcia in rounds 1 and 2, and most of round 3 up until Garcia's lucky punch near the end of round 3. The punch stats speak for themselves.

            Do you base all your arguments off Compubox?

              Neither. Mayweathers legacy is already set in stone after May 2nd.

              Khan or Brook are two guys Floyd beats easily and neither have anything to phase him

                Lol. Compubox numbers? He practically got decapitated in there. He won two rounds in a fight he got stopped in? Big whoop. He got stopped.

                I see you've taken the word "sucker" out now. Baby steps.

                There's no such thing as a lucky punch in boxing btw.

                  I don't think either enhances his legacy. Not that his legacy wasn't already set in stone in the first place, but the Pacquiao win really solidified it, and either Brook or Khan would just be another name added. Nothing more, nothing less.

                    Garcia is just as much a WW as Khan is. They are both fighting LWWs at a higher weight.

                      Interestingly, nearly double the amount of posters here believe Brook would enhance Mayweather's legacy more than Khan.

                      Interesting and factual.

                      Will Khan fans ever wake up?
