Khan lost cuz he fought with his ego, not his boxing skill.

    All Amir had to do was use his jab n throw n then get out. But he threw combos and stayed in the pocket...and for a counterpuncher like Garcia, khan was an easy strategy. If khan can use more boxing sense and not fight with his ego, he can win a rematch.

    Like I posted a bit ago:

    Khan is pretty much a higher level version of Gatti. Has boxing skill, but with shakier legs. They both get hit, and as soon as that happens, they wobble, and then their plans all go to absolute ****. Neither ever clinch, instead they just look to keep a high guard and brawl it out and hopefully their heart is stronger than their opponents.

    When it comes down to it Khan will NEVER be an Elite fighter, but will remain an exciting contender because when it comes down to it in the ring he is pure **** and vinegar when he fights, and will take on anyone.

    He tried to make up for his last performance, he should of let it go he was fighting against a roided fighter, now for his incompetence he's done, he can't recover at all,Ortiz career is far more recoverable at this point

    It seem like every time Khan fights someone who can punch and take a punch he "fights with his ego". I think the real issue is that those fighters are able to expose Khan's flaws. He fights the same way every fight.

    :deal Exactly, he was getting countered from the very beginning even though Lampley and Kellerman ignored it, time to face facts Khan just isn't an A class fighter.

    when sugar ray leonard fought duran the 1st time, he let his ego get in the way. and he paid the price. in the rematch, he used his footwork, jab & speed & got the win. khan can do the same as he has the skillset. however, as sum of u have indicated, he needs disipline.

    I agree.But the kid has zero respect for an opponents fire power.I dunno if he is being arrogant like he's GOD or what.But Garcia can hurt him and he should have been more cautious.

    Exactlimente.

    The problem with Amir is he has speed.It can kill and opponent or himself.
    The fact that he comes in 100 miles an hour. It's almost like suicide he is taking a risk.He does it because he has no respect or caution for his opponent fire power. Goodness me!!
