After watching Matthysse punch his mouthpiece out I knew never to bet on Garcia getting knocked out. I'll knock him for a lot but a weak chin isn't one.
Can have a long career with that chin & left hook, still only 28.
* know what it is? The fact that he is flat-footed helps. FAR better balance at all times. Porter, Pacquiao, or Khan by comparison like to step off the ground.
Toney, Margarito, Chuvalo. Best chins are also flat-footed usually.

My thoughts exactly. I expected a pretty clear UD with no KD for Keith and even though the judges gave us a SD it looked like a pretty clear UD to me.
Garcia ate some shots. Didn't knock him out, but I felt like he was a bit hesitant to throw knowing the kind of power coming at him. Garcia likes to punch with his opponent and eat a punch to land a good punch but he didn't really try or get to attempt to do that too much this fight.
