Danny Garcia vs. Amir Khan Saturday night fight thread

[nuggetdotcom]

Just heard Khan comment back on Froch saying that Carl is jealous of his success, that he has more fans and is fighting in a better and more commutative division.

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.

froch gets respect of fight fans.

khan gets KO'd

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.

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

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.
As for Khan, i've always thought he was overrated and overhyped, in otherwords, he really wasn't that great to begin with.
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).

No doubt. I don't see any reason Garcia couldn't duplicate what Abril pulled off and got robbed as a result of vs a Rios who still refuses to listen to his body and move up. 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.
