    Who has Ryan Garcia beat?

    Amir Khan beat Maidana

    Imagine what Maidana would do to Ryan Garcia and even Tank Davis...he'd throw 800 thudding punches and make them both his girlfriends. Khan would have them both wondering what slapped them leaving them confused about their own sexuality like Paulie was.

    Khan was the man at 140 in 2010. It's a shame Matthysse got two naff decisions which put him out of play during that time.

    People underestimate Khan thinking he's thinking he's chinny and not strong but strength and muscles mean nothing in boxing. Victor Ortiz an overdeveloped teenager was supposed to KO all them kids in the ams tournaments then got slapped hardcore by a little skinny Khan aged 16 before he only lost out at aged 17 to Mario Kindelan who was a full blown man veteran and regarded as one of the best amatuers ever. If Khan stayed an amatuer he would have been the best amateur of all time with relative ease. His style was perfect for it.

    Ryan is a better counter puncher - Amir was better at initiating offense and threw faster combinations

    GarcĂ­a was more explosive puncher while Khan had faster combos.

    Between the two Amir Khan was far more talented and a better fighter than Ryan despite his chin. He at least beat someone as dangerous like Maidana.

    Two different questions, more explosive, Garcia. Faster, clearly Khan, but he was a shoe shiner. Not much explosive pop in those shots.

    Khan would beat Garcia as well. I really question Ryan's heart. I believe he quit in his last fight and is not mentally fit for boxing.

    Khan, Garcia's handspeed isn't anything special when throwing combinations.
