Those that say Garcia got lucky are a bunch of bitter idiots. It's obvious from round 1 that he was trying to time him with that same exact punch that ended him.
Khan's speed is way overrated. Some people talk like his speed makes him difficult for anyone but time and time again we see his speed means ****. Khan has now power, no inside game, no ring IQ and walks into traps. Brook always gets Khan but this current Khan v Brook would get knocked out inside 5 rounds.
If you weren't a boxing fan and read this topic you would think Khan was just a bum. Yet he won silver at 17, went to america early fought in their backyards won two world titles at 140 unifying it. Whilst on the other hand you'd think this Brook was a killer with a terrific resume. Yet we know he's fought 34 bums, had close fight with Porter held the belt hostage fighting bums like Senchenko, Bizier, Dan, Gavin and got battered from pillar to post by GGG, but that makes him amazing apparently.
His speed isn't overrated. Khan has beaten world class fighters with fast combinations and hasn't had bother doing anything else because uh, guess what, he is exceptional in one area. His chin is and has always been the problem
No one calls him a master boxer but it's clear Khan can beat world level opposition with his speed alone. No one can beat Mayweather. What is your point?
Exactly. Without that fragile mandible, Khan could have accomplished much more in boxing. It was, for him, a fatal flaw. Chins MATTER!!!
Khans just had a hand op,theres a chance he punches brook and hurts it again?? Theres always a risk of an injury..There is no chance at all that khan goes 12 rounds with brook, no way. Brook is a very smart fighter and he will land that right hand, no doubt. Amir cannot go 12 rounds at a high pace in a tough fight, he always slows down and that's when he gets caught. He won't beat any of the top welterweights. I don't understand that theory behind khan being a great boxer, he has great speed but does e really have good combinations? He only ever throws a straight left straight right straight left straight right..he has poor range control which is why if you throw with khan you will land.
this is nothing new what real boxing fans have known all along even the blind could see it denial is one son of a bitc h and mentally weak people live in this other than speed and it aint by much he holds nothing over kell absolutely nothing this fight as passed khan is shot and brook needs to move on and fast looks like the yanks have realized we sent our b level fighter out there whilst we kept the a level here now they and hbo have seen what we all knew kell had but at two weights up with the monster no one wants any of paulie said it best ggg > canelhoe brook > khan it is what it is khan could have tried to be great and prove every one wrong and put it all on the line and went for kell in stead he about turned tucked his tail between his legs and made himself look scared of the challenge at its peak
make ggg khan at a catch weight see how well khan holds up dare to be different dare to be great dare to do the un thinkable I mean khans power trebled at 155 he could come in at 155 and ggg in at 160 see how it sells in uk see who is the bigger draw
Here we go ^ Brook vs GGG just confirms that Brook is a cut above. Some of those punches Golovkin landed were savage shots, and while I don't want to say Kell never felt them, because he clearly did, he did take them well and come back guns blazing. Khan has the speed and skill to look good against a lot of people but Brook is too well-rounded and hits hard enough to put Khan away. I would put money on Brook with confidence.
