You can bet your life Carl is jealous of his 'success', who wouldn't be? Compare the two records and see who should really be the top earner.Quote:

besides, khan got shy of $1million usd for the garcia fight. i understand froch was getting at least $1milli plus ppv $$$ for the super six fights. sounds pretty even.
To give Khan credit round 4 should not of happened.
IMHO fight should of been stopped after the first knock down, if you can not put your hands up on a standing 8 count you should not be in the ring.
Entertaining fight throughout.
Froch has clarified it by saying if it happened to him at his age and that at 25 Khan has many years left in the game. Still think there is no love lost between them.Quote:

Good to see that Froch has a future career in politics available to him.Quote:

It's not a U-turn, it's a "clarification" of his position.
I don't think Khan gets back. I see the mentality of a warrior, no doubt but that's writing checks your ass can't cash. maybe forged off early doubts but his defense and focus as well as chin are cashed out.
I've got to be in the minority but would really like to see Lopez vs Garcia, battle of the legit upset winners?!
Lopez vs Garcia would make a good fight, i'd love to see it.Quote:

I believe Khan is as 'good' now (at 25) as he's ever going to get, and after getting his ass handed to him by Garcia, that ain't saying much.
I'm with you -- my short list for Garcia opponents on another thread was 1) matthyse, 2) lopez, 3) JMM -- all of whom I'd favor. 4 and 5 would be Rios and Judah, both of whom I'd favor Garcia against. Rios would probably be a good fight though (caveat: I still haven't watched the Abrillo fight).Quote:

Rios needs to reevaluate what he wants to do in there because while he looked like a guy who just phoned it in vs Abril and Murray. It'll be interesting to see where Garcia goes, he's not everyones taste and its early but I think he'll be around a bit. Surely they will strip him of a trinket though.Quote:

His back was injured but he called on his skills to survive and he did not foolishly behave like a slugger against a boxer but Ali taunted him and stopped him because there was lots of trash talk. Khan let his 0pponent's father get into his brain. Floyd had genuine emotional problems and came from the same background as Tyson but Floyd wore beards an hats to hide in public dealing with shame but he came back better but older. Khan believed his own press and that my friends is bad. This means more than just going back to the drawing board. This is a heart check because every mistake he made was in anger fear and embarrassment and his game plan ignored.
