Karim Mayfield sparred with Danny Garcia for the Eric Morales fight. This is what he had to say about Khan vs Garcia on a radio show the other day:
"I thought Khan would chip him up, ice pick, bust his face up, which he was doing in the first few rounds. In sparring I experienced that left hook with Dnany Garcia. People say it was just sparring but i experienced it . But after i got caught with it i told him it won't happen again, it wont happen again! I knew that left hook was devastating, i seen him rock some sparring partners in sparring and man, he just caught him clean on the neck. And man, that was it.
A lot of times you throw a counter punch like that you're not really looking. Sometimes with someone fast like that you dont have time to look. Soon as your face get touched you're shooting it. It just becomes a natural habit. I think thats what actually happened. It dont seem like it was timed, don't seem like it was setup."
