    All people had to do was look at the way he was sparring. Khan went into the fight thinking he was going to walk through Garcia. And Garcia brought him back to reality.

    The writing was on the wall from mid round 2 when Garcia was walking him down with relative ease IMO.

    Khan saw Garcia beat Morales and thought he was the soft option back to owning a title and it backfired, not because he fought the wrong fight but because he lost to the better fighter.

    Garcia caught khan with several good shots in the first 2 rounds mate. Khan won those two rounds but it wasn't one sided.

    Exactly.

    You could see then that Garcia had started to figure Khan out.

    I truly don't believe Khan has the strength or punching power to keep Garcia off him. Just my opinion though.

    To me it was, Garcia landed a few body shots in the 2nd so what?? Khan was easy outlanding him.

    It had more to do with Khan power, he been touched up enough in the 1st 2 rounds to know he had nothing to fear of Khans weak ass punches, which is why he was putting his whole body and winging it.

    And to those Khan fans and their agenda those shots were far from wild, he had no issues from round one on hitting Khan flush whether to the body or head, when he did miss he missed barely

    Watch it again mate. It's more than a few body shots. When khan flurries, Garcia landed a few better shots in the exchanges.

    And that is Khans claim to fame. Maidana is what he is, a strong, heavy handed crude fighter who Khan only just scraped by.

    You have to remember that Alexander handled him with ease and Morales was never as hurt during the fight as Khan was and IMO Morales v Maidana was a pick em decision, it could have gone either way.

    Garcia would handle Maidana if they fought.

    Maidana is a nobody as so is Khan. He got a belt from Ortiz who quit out. That is his only notewordy win and its overrated. He ran for fear of losing and availed of help from the Ref. There is nothing commendable about Khan's career. He has achieved nothing to be considered great.

    Without a doubt angel had a huge part to play in it. Amir was naive enough to fall for it though

    he mocked khans "one-two roll out" kngaroo style knowing if khan fought like that, his son was in trouble
