Khan-Garcia [AFTERMATH]

Oh **** - when was this? Is there a video?????

 

Kahn is going to get his overrated ass handed to him and then all those saying ''danny who?'' will know his name.

Garcia's timing,power and precision will be too much for kahn.

 

It will most likely air this Friday on Golpe AGolpe, and if so, they'll include it on their online video segments, which if interesting, I always post & translate.

 

War garcia!!!!!

 

I'll add my analysis here:

People are forgetting how good of a fighter Khan is on the outside. Yes, he sometimes lunges and forgets to bring his feet under him as he rushes in with little sense of pace, but let's not pretend he's unskilled and ungifted here. His timing with that fast jab, above all his punches, is very good, and for all of his flaws in terms of movement, he circles well and knows how to maintain his preferred range. Only Maidana and Peterson have been able to effectively penetrate Khan's control of distance (neither dominantly), which over time, has gotten better and will continue to do so. Garcia, while a good fighter, is not creative or experienced enough to catch Khan with anything significant repeatedly as Khan comes in, nor to force him to open up consistently by pressing. Morales picked him apart in most of the early rounds just by timing a right hand over his jab as he slips inwards-a neat trick that comes with experience which Khan does not have in his own repertoire, but the fact remains that he could not adjust or find a way to neutralize Morales' control of distance, besides the bursts of offense and opportune counters presented by Morales's carelessness coming forward that presented themselves later in the fight, as age took its toll and youth won the war of attrition.

I see Khan taking a UD or a late KO/TKO in a good fight, as Garcia will at least compete well.

 

Thanks, B!

 

This is spot on I think, great breakdown.
