    Weren`t a lucky punch cause it was a counter and Khan wa easy to counter because he steps in with his punches and Garcia was a good counter puncher.

    Agreed, it was a phenomenal looping counter punch. Khan never saw it coming. Danny exposed a serious flaw there, Khan is flawed clearly, but if you don't know how to exploit those flaws, at his best Khan is very capable of dominating you. Look what Khan did to Devon Alexander for example.

    Agree with you here Shadow.
    Khan lacked the foot speed last night which I think is a combination of age and ring rust. Still had quick hands but if the feet don't follow and you don't have the IQ to adapt and get out of danger. then with his chin it was always going to be a difficult night.
    I think Khan saw the Brook v Crawford fight and thought Brook was far more vulnerable than he actually was.
    Agree regarding Floyd v Pac. The leg and foot speed are the first things to go as a fighter gets older. so it was always a case of ageing Pac out to negate that advantage. I'm not saying Pac beats Floyd but if the fight was 6 years earlier I think it would have certainly been a very different fight.

    Average fighters do not win national titles let alone world titles.

    By any reasonable assessment Khan at his best was a very good boxer. Great? no, but certainly very good.

    Your January 2017 prediction was quite a bit more accurate about this fight @miniq

    Papi Floyd said that Void is fighting scuurred against Pac and ducked him for 6 yrs and two days.I thought that fight was disgrace for both parties involved and nothing to be proud of. Floyd fans are raving on about how Void destroyed Pacquiao to a pulp whahahaha. Nothing of such happened. Yout Mayflower ran scared and clinched like crazy against a one handed Manny. Pac also looked old and ineffective nothing to write home about that fight so don't act all proud about that match. Cause it was horrible.

    Manny was on another level to Khan, he proved that by beating Hatton, Khan never beat a fighter as good as Hatton.

    Commenatators talks about Khan heart. LOL. Pacquiao 3 times more heart and chin lol. 5 times more power in his gloves. Pac was one of the oldest WW champion to boot at 42.

    Give the revisionists time they will tell you Khan used to school Manny in sparring.

    Tokunbo Olajide used to best Tommy Hearns in sparring.

    I don’t believe Khan bettered Hearns in sparring at all.
