Mate Carcia just connected with a lottery shot his Daddy will either be proved correct or full of shite when his next opponent is announced .
i dont really get the hate for khan that some people have, boxers for the most part are extremely confident in their abilities and some are more outspoken about it than others. Khan shows a lot of heart and his speed and accuracy is beautiful to watch, unfortunately he wasn't born with a good chin but that adds to the excitement of the guy, knowing that he could be sparked out at any minute, he has to learn to defend better and maybe strengthen his neck up so he can take some of those shots a tad better? i really hope he can come back from this as he is an excitement machine and is really good for the sport
I think the world of you Josey but it was hardly a lottery shot Garica was throwing that counter left hook everytime Khan jumped in with a flurry of punches. Bloke just dosent have the chin or neck :yep for the highest level of boxing. Had he stayed in the Am's he most likley would have won a Gold this comming games
Cheers jabby ya top poster in my eyes and I guess you could argue he tuned it perfect ,the proof in the pud will be his next test mate ,
I don't like Khan as a person but I really enjoy watching his fights. He has electrifying speed and has great heart as shown in the Maidana and Garcia fights. I will always tune in to his fights whether he wins or loses. In a small way he reminds me of Tommy Hearns, extremely entertaining fighter to watch with plenty of heart but also a guy that could be KTFO.
I have a feeling Khan might bring katsidis to the UK for a return fight. Micks coming off a sting of losses at light welter but still has a good name after the Mitchell and earl fights. Shame it's a good 5 years to late
The first thing Garcia's father did post fight was rule out a rematch and he was quiet matter of fact about it whilst speaking to Paulie Malinaggi ( but money does talk i guess ) as for the Katsidis fight ? even at this late stage in his career i would walk over broken glass to see Mick fight in the flesh (absolute grade A ledgend in my book ) , Francis spot on post mate Khan is a mixed bag and is destain to be just like Mick ie fight anyone , give it your all , knock em out or die trying .
I think Maidana showd Khan's chin is fine. No one can allow themselves to be hit like that (the Garcia punch) and survive.
