Is Ryan Garcia the Mexican Amir Khan?

[Idunnoshet]

Hes a mexican hypejob

The kid was born in California and doesn't speak a lick of Spanish .
But his last name being Garcia . He Must be Mexican huh ?

[boliodogs]

Both have fast hands. Both c ocky. Do the similarities end there? Seeing as how he is fighting no hopers, are they hiding his chin?

You are assuming something that may not be true. Khan has a proven weak chin and has been knocked down so many times by mediocre punchers and knocked out 3 times by good punchers. Nobody has dropped or badly hurt Garcia yet. He can't become a champion without fighting punchers so give him a chance. He has a much better personality than Khan and is not nearly the incredible bragger Khan is. I think he will become better than Khan and tougher as well.

Ryan has never been dropped as a pro or in over 200 amateur fights. Matter fact he's never been dropped in sparring. So how the phuk does he have a weak chin like Khan? People forget even before Khan first ko to Prescott he was dropped in early pro fights before that. I think his 10th pro fight he was dropped. Ryan never dropped hell never seen the kid really hurt. There are things you can complain about for this young kid but having a weak chin isn't one of them. Khan was dropped in amateur and multiple times before his first world title shot.



You show me Ryan doing the stanky leg like that at ANY level? Otherwise it's ****** to compare him to weak chin fighters.

That is if tank ever decides to actually make weight and stop with the weight cheating

How in the hell is Tank weight cheating? He either makes weight or he doesn't. If he doesn't he pays the price by losing his title. The rules are the same for him as for all other boxers and it is impossible for him to cheat and get away with it. He made weight and scored a 1st round KO last title defense so what's the problem? Tank is no easy fight for any boxer in the world his weight. He is a tremendous puncher.

I've never seen a mexican with a chin as glassy as Khan's

Nobody is exactly who he is fighting. Im pretty sure that is why he hasn’t been dropped or badly hurt or barely hit. I understand building up a fighter. But other than handspeed and 1 and 2 round kos vs nobodies, what is impressive about him?

Who said he has a weak chin?

[Mister Wolf]

He doesnt last 6 rounds against Lopez.

Naw...make not mistake about it Ryan Garcia is extremely talented. You're talking about a 14 Time National Champion, beat guys like Devin Haney multiple times in the Amateurs if I'm not mistaking. Beat Delante "Tiger" Johnson who is currently the top US Welterweight in the Amatures right now. So the talent is real it is not hype as far as his TALENT and ABILITY

But Yeah where he could be similar Khan is Defensivel and Reflexes in which they sometimes want to show off their speed leaving themselves open for BIG Counters. I guess that is why he is working with Eddy Reynoso I'm assuming. Right now he is just blowing guys away with Natural Talent and Abilities at the moment but when he starts fighting the very best it is going to take more than that because you're not going to be able to just overwhelm World Champions and Top Contenders with your Speed

Currently rated #1 by the WBO, I think he should stay on that path and pursue the winner of Masayuki Ito vs Jamal Herring. I like his chances vs either of them instead of Tank Davis, Miguel Berchelt or Tevin Farmer Right Now!
