Danny Garcia vs. Amir Khan Saturday night fight thread

[No Contest]

I was rooting against Khan but he wasn't an ass afterwards so I gotta give him a lil credit. He was trying to keep going he didn't quit so can't say anything bad about him. Garcia just three a head down blind left hook and caught him on the top of the head. Was a good start thought we might be in for a good long fight but oh well.

he was referring to himself as we - he couldnt understand why the ref stopped the fight and his legs were fine - yeah still not an ass

I thought he was ok to continue
His legs were under him...but yeah he should have ran some to try and recover more.

Bambi on ice springs to mind everytime he got clipped and he would have only taken more - he didnt have the legs or brains to run.

At some point, you almost have to feel bad for the HBO bigwigs - they try so hard to build a fighter, but it never seems to work out.

[No Contest]

His legs were more shaky on the first two knockdowns...I thought he was there and coherant. I like that ref cam that's a cool addition.

Bayliss did him a massive favour stopping it when he did, plus all the long counts. Khan could have been badly sparked had he been allowed to continue. And now he can claim he was stopped too soon and deserves a rematch down the line/next time out I'll be better, won't make mistakes etc. instead of leaving the ring on a stretcher. There's just possibly a way back for Khan after this fight, it would have been a lot harder had he been seriously sparked instead of being stopped on his feet.

Fight stopped by the ref after 3 KD's, Garcia wins by 4th round KO. Damn, maybe Garcia's daddy wasn't an idiot afterall.

Well...... his dad's still an idiot.... but he loves his son, and Danny did a great job in there tonight. Danny also comes across as a nice guy, so good for him. Great fight!!

Yeah, still a bit of an idiot, but less of one after his son gave him some redemption, the father should be grateful to his son for that, imagine what an ass dad would have looked like if Danny had lost.
I agree, great fight, BTW, lots of Khan haters on the forum ain't there.

a glancing blow put him down last time - NC you seriously wanted that to continue & have Khan carried out the ring instead of walking out? Yer'fool

I actually like the guy, except when he's talking. In the ring, you sure as hell can't say that he doesn't give it his all. There just seems to be some short circuit action that happens between his jaw/neck and his legs.

LOL.... yeah, he owes his son big time. I thought the interview with Danny, his dad, and the HBO team was pretty interesting when they showed it before the fight. Lampley and the dad looked like they were going at it for a second there.

Yup, Garcia smelled blood ,wasn't going to let Khan off the hook and would have just kept pummeling him, eventually knocking him unconscious.
You've got to wonder after this if mentally and physically, Khan will ever be able compete again at the championship level.
Missy, your "bambi on ice" description of Khan cracked me up.

I know! Not that that's a bad thing.
I bet Khan is thinking, where the fuck is Allah when you need him.

I remember Khan being touted as the next big thing in boxing, then came the Prescott fight. I don't believe he ever mentally recovered from that fight, because all it takes is one big shot, and he's back on queer street again. The chin just isn't there, and he writes checks with his mouth that his ass can't cover.
I never liked hearing him talk and always thought he was overrated, tonight once again proved that.
