Lopez KO!
Lopez KO!
He's a Golden Boy fighter who can't knock Khan out. The problem for GBP is if/when Khan beats him. He'd have a belt again but he'd then have to fight credible welters who can punch. You'd have to watch every fight through your fingers.
Even at 140, who can GBP put him in with? Matthysse? Ha. Garcia would get through to him again. He may even get sparked by Josesito who will be throwing the kind of looping hooks that Garcia caught him with.
I remember when fighters with bollocks took the immediate rematch clause.
Don't bully fat kids - they've got enough on their plate
I think he needs at least 2 more fights before going after Garcia
He's technically "rebuilding" and needs some time to get his confidence up and show what he can do.
He was still getting caught with the left hook and took some good shots. He did appear to be more patient and controlled and showed us that he can fight inside. He was in and out more this time and didn't look to trade as much.
I think he can beat Garcia after 2 more fights and should then move up to welter.
Totally agree, just watched an Khan documentary on ITV4 on Saturday making out he was a saviour of boxing. It was sickening. Khan will fight Paulie because he has beaten him already, he is feather fisted and khan gets to become a world champion at 2 weights.
In reality he has hand picked and carefully selected his opponents to ensure he does not embarrassing lose again. However I do not begrudge him this but he does need to be honest about what he is doing.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
To be fair, up to the Garcia fight he was fighting whoever he could and even went after the biggest puncher (or one of the biggest punchers) in the division in Maidana. He was definitely pursuing the best and I'll give him respect for that. He got carried away and became overconfident and paid for it. He's not as big of a puncher as he thinks he is and his chin is not that good ... he has to realize this and try to play to his strengths and try and cover up his weaknesses. If he would use his jab more he'd be a better fighter.
But after the Garcia fight there is no question that he's getting hand picked guys. GBP can't have one of their stars lose like that again.

It's just like we used to say in the school yard,"Why don't you pick on someone your own size?"

I don't see Lopez having a shot here. Pointless fight for me. Lopez is so limited skill wise and is not a big puncher. Easy stoppage win for Khan. I'd fancy khan to beat Garcia in a rematch pretty easily, my guess is it will happen next December if they both keep winning.
I think Garcia will KO him again. If Khan could take a shot he would win every round against Garcia, but Garcia will catch him at some point and if he does it will probably be all over.
P.S I have never see speed like Khan's, it is mesmorising!
