Khan v Broner

[Ron Swanson]

You also fail to mention that Peterson failed a drug test and the ref was shocking in that fight. I still had Khan winning despite that but yes it was close, a lot closer than it should have been. Khan should have finished him early. If there was a rematch Khan would be a massive fav. Also he was beating Garcia easily before he got caught. Is that even debateable. He won every round and opened a cut that was close to ending the fight. Fair play to Garcia for digging deep but again in a rematch Khan is a strong fav.

The ref was shocking, Khan should have been deducted points far earlier. Khan couldn't do a darn thing without two hand shoving Peterson first. Khan simply can't fight for shit on the inside. His only recourse is to hold or push. Both are illegal. Every minute of that fight where Khan wasn't cheating Peterson was battering him. I was rooting for Khan but ashamed with all the fouling he was allowed to get away with keeping him in the fight. Of course after these last few years I will never root for Khan again because he thinks he is something he is not. He is not a fighter. A fighter pursues challenges and titles and in that paydays. Khan is another Haye milking the UK fans while doing nothing real.

And Garcia knocked him out. It was inevitable. Their entire plan was to time him. That's what you do to a faster guy, you punch with them. Because if you punch after they are gone. Of course you get hit doing this but they were prepared for that. The gameplan was executed beautifully(I hate that you are making me compliment Garcia) Khan was sparked right as he should have been. Most boxing fans can watch that fight and recognize the KO was inevitable from the action and that the points were irrelevant. It's a little sad to try to steal credit with "he won rounds" ignoring what was actually happening in the fight. It's like saying it's okay you shit your pants because you were on the way to the bathroom.

If I'm ever guilty of positivity for Broner...its that he stands a far better chance than Chris 'jus riding the clock' Algieri.

Agreed you could justify Khan v Broner but Algeri is a joke fight.

Love the analogy. I'll steal that for future use.

I disagree. Peterson was shoving his head into Khans chin the whole fight which is illegal. He leant on him to prevent getting head butted.

Garcias plan may have been to time him but him and his corner were in panic mode when the big punch landed. As i said Garcia could win by KO again but Id expect Khan to handle him easily. I wouldnt be surprised to see odds of 2/1 on Garcia in a rematch.

As for Khan not wanting a rematch, he did request an immediate rematch and offered 7 figures to Garcia for it which he turned down. It would have been a career high payday for Garcia too.

First you start contradicting yourself, now you're dreaming! Who the fuck is Khan to offer 7 figures? He could offer 700 FUCKING FIGURES and it wouldn't matter. It wasn't his money to offer. He was Golden Boy's bitch at the time, it's up to them what Garcia would earn.
Bear in mind that in his last fight, after this "major transformation" he's had working under Virgil Hunter, his purse was $700k. That's after he's supposedly turned into something special with all the improvements he's made!!! so how the fuck is " he gonna offer Garcia a Million?"
There's not usually a call for a rematch after a 4th round KO. After Garcia beat Khan, he went on to beat Matthysse and virtually unify the division. What did Khan do? Oh yeah, he fought an unranked lightweight, followed by a career lightweight who was a bit long in the tooth, and he still manged to put Khan on his ass! Follow that up by someone who hasn't been relevant for 5 years and a non-punching ex- decent fighter in Alexander, and we're expected to believe the Khan is something special! Do me a favour.

Garcia was offered 1 mil for an immediate rematch which was turned down, that came from Khan and Angel Garcia. Im not saying it was a duck from Garcia, he wanted to go a different route which is fine. Its amazing how hypocritical you are. If you didnt like Garcia you would be criticizing him for getting gifts over Herrera and scraping by Zab Judah at least I call it as it is for all fighters.

[Abelardus]

Hate broner, but he knocks out khan between rounds 5 and 7 if this fight happens.

Id say Khan beats him easily on points. Apart from Broner not stopping anyone at Welter or Light Welter, Broner needs his feed planted to get any power off. He really struggled against a quick mover in Mallignaggi and I think Khan would be able to keep him on his toes most of the fight.

How am I hypocritical? I haven't said whether I like Garcia or not. This thread was fuck all to do with Garcia. The only hypocrisy on this thread has come from you if you read back, and when I pointed it out, you never answered that part.
Of all the opponents KHAN mentioned, Algieri is the least acceptable, nobody can argue against that. Whether Khan is ranked 3rd in the division or 7th/8th, the only way you climb and improve is by fighting people above you or at least on your level while others slip. You don't improve by fighting somebody leagues lower. It achieves nothing.

Got a gift against Herrera, fought a career lightweight bum and now a catchweight. Not exactly brilliant. Opponent v opponent Khans last 3 fights have been far better than Garcias in my opinion. Devon already beat Matthysse, Diaz whoops Salka and Collazo whoops Herrera.

Yep, and Garcia KO'd Khan!!!!!!!!! What does that tell you? In the week before Garcia fought Khan , credit to Garcia's Dad , who can be a bit of a sap, but he told Khan exactly what would happen , and it did.

I agree this virgill Khan is a lot better than roach Khan who was reckless and at 147lb he would have a better advantage.

If you didn't like Khan you'd admit he doesn't deserve an immediate rematch nor would you take the 1m dollar offer seriously.

Khan is trash...deal with.
