WBC orders Garcia to defend against mandatory #1 Khan

...or they will strip him and give Khan the title...just like they did to Canelo to defend against GGG. :nono:

 

Is Khan still terrified of Brook?

 

to death, apparently. He can redeem himself by getting revenge on Garcia or getting a gift belt if Garcia is stripped. Win, win scenario. Why risk it with Brook?

 

But Garcia will KTFO him again

 

Exactly.
And alsowhy Khan needs to grow a pair of balls and face Brook, the lesser of two evils...
Brook will probably fuck him up just as much though.

 

I'm not sure it's a given that Garcia KO Khan in a rematch. In their fight, Khan was fighting very aggresively. If he uses more movement and fight a negative fight, he could conceivably win a decision. Sure, Garcia is a heavy favorite, since Khan seems to lack the defensive and the discipline to not get caught eventually, but it's an interesting fight.

 

Hmmm. I like Brook a lot, but I don't see him as any better than Garcia. He's definitely less proven.

 

Garcia doesn't land that neck shot in their first fight, he probably gets sliced and diced.

 

Lol OK. Garcia only has 10 times the boxing skill, power and heart of Khan. Puts him to sleep 9/10 times they fights. Khan is kinda quick. If he fights like a total pussy he might make it to the end and lose a unanimous, nithing better.

 

All he has to do is land flush on that chin repeatedly.

Khandashian will probably be KO'd in his next fight, for all we know.

 

Exactly. You've never seen Garcia outboxed that badly as in the first few rounds. Then the home run punch landed and it was over.

 

:: garcia crushed khan.

 

:: Garcia was just figuring him out and timing him to setup the KTFO. I dont recall Khan landing anything of significance and the writing was on the wall before that shot even landed.

 

I'm no Khan fan but it's totally ridiculous to blast him on heart, he seemed to be the kind who just won't quit. There's nothing to suggest Garcia has more heart than him, let alone, 10 time the amount.

 

Watch the actual fight. Garcia was never hurt or wobbled or anything but he was being outboxed.

 

for what? 2.5 rounds?

 

While I do think Khan-Garcia II is a compelling matchup, yeah, all this talk about Khan easily outboxing Garcia for all of 3 rounds is a bit silly.

 

Good point, I rescind that comment. Khan does have heart and is a very good fighter. But I think Garcia touches that chin every time they meet.

 

He didn't touch it the first time. It was the neck he hit.

 

I can't see Khan lasting the distance with Garcia. One of those haymakers is going to catch Khan along the way.

 

THe "he outbox-ded him for one round" shit comes from Max Kellerman and his usual stupid comments during Gainer vs Corrales.

The truth is that Garcia was busting up, missing wildly and there was mild panic in the Garcia corner.

He doesn't hit Khan in the neck..........I would have paid to see that fucking corner at the end of the 3rd round.

They were on the verge of a meltdown.

Outboxing somebody for one round is a joke.

Two rounds is less of a joke.

Well into the third means you are outboxing them, especially with the way Garcia was missing and his corner panicking.

He lucked out with that neck shot.

 

I agree, but unless Khan has regressed, or has issues at 147, then he is likely to beat the shit out of Garcia for every minute before he gets tagged.

 

Yeah exactly, he didn't even land flush and still put him down hard. That same shot flush would've ended the fight right there.

 

khan is predictable. anyone able to take his punches for a few rounds will be able to start timing him with left hooks. that midget molina was doing the same shit. he just has no power.

 

yup

 

Yeah, but Zab outboxed the shit out of Kostya for 85 seconds.

 

Zab HURT Zoo, had him reeling hard. Khan may have started busting up Danny a little, but never had him phased, not the slightest.

 

just re-watched garcia vs khan. first round was decisive for khan. round 2 was pretty close. then boom

 

I'd say Khan indeed has regressed. His best was from 2009-2011. He's slower now and he gets hit even more.

 

That's a classic example of one extreme.

Let's say that happened for almost 3 rounds and then Tszyu, now busted up and a bit concerned, was being teed off on by Zab and landed a shot to the throat.

Not the same at all as Zab winning the first, Tszyu making adjustments and measuring and blasting Judah out with a perfect right hand on the chin.

Fuck it, if Khan had only kept the 1-2's coming and avoid flurries, he could have taken Danny into very deep water.
