    Excellent observation. Cotto and Zab would have blown this kid out back in the day.

    Doing well, RM. Hope all is well with you. :good

    Shocked but not surprised, if you know what I'm saying.

    Garcia never really has appeared to have the look of a special fighter, because he's not particularly..swift...in terms of hand and foot speed. But he's got power and timing, and I was impressed with the fact that he could drop an aging but still durable Morales. Figured that if he could find a way to connect with Khan, he could certainly do some damage.

    But honestly, I expected that if the fight were to have ended in the early rounds, it would be Khan forcing the stoppage simply by over-whelming his foe with speed, or perhaps busting him up for a cuts TKO. Figured that Garcia would have to really work the body and wait for a while; but Khan made it easier for him to land early by fighting more aggressively and staying in the line of fire for longer than was really necessary.

    So yeah...that was a shock.
