Thread: If Khan and Garcia fought again, who would you pick to win?

Putting the hate to one side, if it happened again in 6 months time, who you got and how?

I think Garcia again , if khan doesn't box and tries to trade with him he will get caught. Garcias dad would wind up khan even more again and get khan to fall into the trap of wanting to knock out Garcia and that would fall into his hands and I think he stop Khan. I don't think it would happen so early in the fight, but I think Garcia would catch up with him.

Don't get me wrong Khan has the potential to cause Garica problems, as he showed us in the first 2 rounds. But as soon as Garcia picked up the pace and landed the first meaningful shot, khan went down like a sack of shit. I think Garcia would catch Khan within 12 rounds and that's all it might take to win the fight for Garcia.

Khan would be prepared for 36 minutes of hit and run tactics

Wouldnt gain fans and wouldnt make a fight of it but would be enough for a UD. Garcia would have to make the most of the very few openings he was offered.

Khan's speed won't last forever mind and down the stretch he is going to suffer several KO defeats that will see him retire before 30.

You heard it here first

same result, and the reason is simple, because Khan will be even more emotionally charged coming into the rematch trying to avenge the loss and he'll make the same mistakes as the first time out and Garcia will make him pay for it, Khan's chin wont stand up to his shots for 12 rounds

actually heard it on Yahoo from Froch's mouth first lol

I honestly think Garcia does him again. People were being WAY too unkind to Garcia in those first 2-3 rounds.

I didn't see what others saw when they said Khan was beating the daylights out of him until he got caught. I saw Garcia being smart, cool, calm and collected. He sat there in the pocket as Khan tried to fire off his combo's and landed big body shots and the odd right hand.

He didn't close up like most people do against Khan's speed. He used timing to get his shots off. He was only getting off one shot at a time as opposed to Khan's 2 or 3 but those shots were telling blows. Khan's shots were also not effecting Garcia. Apart from the cut.

I think Garcia is the type of fighter that will always be Khan's kryptonite. Kind of like Salido is to Lopez. In fact Lopez and Khan share many similarities.

thought Froch told him to retire now ?

Thats when he was cunting him off....I mean misquoted

I'd like to think that Khan could make some adjustments and fight a smarter fight but Garcia looked so strong from what Ive seen.

Garcia by stoppage Im afraid.

Khan needs to come out of these loafty clouds he's been riding and stop thinking he's something that he's not. To start with that's a slugger and a great fighter that belongs in with the elite. But I think the blue print is out on him and Garcia gets him again.

Khan is more talented but Garcia is actually younger than him. There's no reason why Garcia can't keep improving.

Also Khan looked hurt by body shots as well as getting ironed out. And he looked a powderpuff puncher.

I'd have to go with Garcia in a rematch.. especially just 6 months down the line.

Nothing in that fight warrants a rematch! Khan was battered. You can't make up for a terrible chin, it will always be found wanting! Garcia would walk through him again. Khans chin problems were apparent as far back as limmond and gomez! Now he's basically blaming roach and looking for a new trainer. The problem is not roach it's his chin.

I see a downward spiral for khan from here on in.

Yeah I can't do with all this "i need a trainer with 100% commitment " crap. I see Enzo has opened the door for Khan to join up with him.

I should have added that even if Khan does UD Garcia in a rematch by running he won't have won the war and still come off second best.

I think a champ always deserves a rematch if he wants one. Imagine if Rahman hadn't given Lewis one

Garcia is like a more skilled Maidana, he can bang, but with accuracy.

Garcia would KO him again unless the fight is in the UK, then I think Khan would win by UD

not really, all depends on the circumstances, Lewis got his because although he was blasted out, he was the heavy favorite going into the fight and other than the KO punch he dominated the fight, Khan was the heavy favorite, but he wasn't dominating the way that Lewis was, nor was he stopped by ONE perfectly placed punch, he was soundly beat up and battered to surrender
