did it escape everyone that Cano didn't make weight came in overweight, had time to lose it but decided not to and that Malignaggi would never have lost his title regardless? Because I'm watching the fight now and that's mostly what they are talking about.
Also thought I'd see more criticism of it.
I was wondering why it was a non title fight, that explains it.
Garcia has devastating power, he would wreck Khan.
He did mate ;D
He's really getting some stink on his shots isnt he. Would like to see him (as the fighter he is now) against someone who isnt an accident waiting to happen as Khan and Morales were.
Re: Danny Garcia vs. Erik Morales II - Saturday night fight thread
I meant if Khan fought him straight away, Khan needs to settle with his new trainer and learn his densive skills and regain some confidence. Then he can come back and beat Garcia.

I disagree Master, if Garcia fights Khan again it will end quicker then it did the first time. Khan isn't going to get any better then what he already is, that's just being realistic.

Yup, it escaped my attention because I had the sound muted and really only watched a couple rounds of this fight.
As for criticism, Malignaggi's fights aren't worth watching.

Yes Bailey really really limits himself with his damn tunnel vision on the right hand KO. He has a very good left hook and can box much better than he has been showing his last two fights.
However, at 38 and always being pretty one dimensional, this is as good as it gets it seems. He probably figures if he threw more punches he wouldn't have the energy for the late KO or to fend off his opponent.
Ugly fight, coulda ended worse for Bailey. Still a fan.

I think Quillan could have got him out of there but Bunce was dead right, he was unsure of his tank fighting at that clip.

I thought Quillan was out boxed for most of the fight and I was disappointed in him.
Re: Danny Garcia vs. Erik Morales II - Saturday night fight thread
I saw it the other way mate. I thought any success N'Dam had was because Quillan allowed it. Quillan handed him at least 3 rounds on a silver plater. I thought he fought smart.
I liked him.
Re: Danny Garcia vs. Erik Morales II - Saturday night fight thread
I give credit to N'Dam because he said he wanted to make a name for himself in the States and IMO he did that. He fought hard... survived multiple knockdowns... and won himself some rounds. Not bad for a fighter from a country not exactly known for its professional boxing prowess. On the other side, Quillin showed a lot of poise... even when his hand speed looked significantly less than N'Dam's. He showed some good power and ring generalship. I thought maybe he could've ended the fight earlier had he pressed the action after some of those KD's.

@Hulk - Bailey is likable Pug, but he's frustrating to watch, because he doesn't let his hands go, and almost totally relies on connecting with a big right hand.
