as you stated danny started from the ground up. he had a massive amount of power coming from his legs and hips when throwing that punch. had it landed clean on the chin it could have stopped khan dead in his tracks. but it landed the way it did and still had enough power on it to cripple khan for the reminder of the fight. he was sitting on his left hooks thats why it hurt khan so bad when it did land. that was the kills shot he worked during camp, same **** morales got hit with. again i think khan could have taken the punch better if it happend later in the fight.
I already made a thread about how he was not even remotely dominating so I ain't gonna type all the **** out again....copy and pasted: Not that dominating the first 2 rounds in a fight you get brutalised a round later in counts for much...... but I've noticed a lot of people claiming Khan was dominating and just got complacent and got caught, this is straight up bull****!!! Garcia was tagging that ass since the first exchanges round 1 and it was only a matter of time before he caught Khan. He was also slipping/parrying/blocking a lot of Khans best work. Khan won the rounds on workrate only, Garcia landed the better punches. Even though Khan outworked him you could tell Garcia was getting **** going and getting to him and that Khans shots had next to no effect on him...... watch it for yourself: [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uhq_E5G35jE&feature=player_embedded[/ame] Watch again and pay attention to garcias defensive work, it was actually very impressive. He was countering from the first exchange in the fight and announcers were giving him no credit, ignoring his work and big upping khans. In round 1 Khan landed almost nothing significant that wasn't partially blocked and the few significant shots he landed were met with counters from Danny. Seriously I urge you all to watch this again, turn off the sound and pay attention to Garcia's defense/blocking and countering in round 1,2....you'll see this was by no means a dominant couple of rounds for Khan and that Garcia was doing good work and setting up the inevitable end from the get go: Don't bother responding to **** until you've seriously watched again with no sound. If you come to any other conclusion than they were competitive rounds where Khan had a higher work rate then you crazy and I really don't know what to say to you.
^^^ Exactly.He won the two rounds,but they were hardly 10-8's.They weren't even dominant rounds.You'd think it was an eleven and a half round beatdown the way some people are going on. ESB has some strange definitions for certain words.This is the second fight where winning two rounds seems to morph into "domination" regardless of the eventual outcome.
Khan always looks like he's 'dominating' til he gets cracked, the reason being he throws those fast eye catching flurries. Problem is half weren't landing and the ones that did weren't bothering Garcia, he just stayed calm, picked his moment and won the fight in about as convincing a way as possible. Stop taking his glory away from him, it was a great win.
That was no domination. Khan won rd 1 comfortably, edged a close rd2, and then got devasted in 3. Garcia was figuring him out midway through the second.
Khan needs to come back and dominate someone. Maidana and Pederson were close regardless of who won. If he is going to be elite he needs to fight an entire fight the way he did those 2 rounds vs Garcia and against a live opponent. Afraid his next fight will be against a feather fisted opponent. There is no questioning Khan's superior talent or heart and thats what keeps people believing but, that chin will disappoint you
