Garcia vs. Salka/Peterson vs. Santana/Jacobs vs. Fletcher thread

ONLY thing I'll give trash-Khan credit for is that he digs a good left hook to the body. Taylor never ever went to the body, which was yet another sign of his low ring IQ.

 

harry khan is the smartest of the bunch

 

Thing is, if Khan didn't have a shit chin, Garcia surely would not have pursued the strategy he did (and by which he lost the first two rounds).

Having said that, if Khan is allowed to hold the way he was against Collazo, it's possible he will keep winning.

 

A Mere Con throws a nice hook to the body for sure

 

:giggle:

 

I was at the Peterson fight. The ref was unusually strict on Khan for holding, and I swear that if Khan had gotten the decision the arena would've rioted. The audience was about 70% DC locals there to support Peterson, 20% Pakistanis, 10% other. Fights broke out between the DC crowd (mostly black dudes) and the Pakis (some of whom were being loud and running around with Pakistan/UK flags).

Taylor lost to Nard 2x in my book, this was also (what I view as) an old, pre-juice Nard and a bad style matchup for Nard to boot. Other than that, Taylor lost to every single decent fighter he faced (I thought he clearly lost to Winky, too). Who's his best non-controversial win, a William Joppy who Hopkins had just finished ruining in his previous fight? A lot of people thought he got a gift against Spinks, too (I couldn't stay awake through that fight).

Khan has the far better resume, imo - Barrera (about as credible as Taylor's win over Nard, except far more dominant), Malignaggi, Judah, Maidana, and Collazo. Most of those are dominant wins, too.

 

what is it with the pakistani fans? several went to the hospital at the Sports Arena in LA after they got all boisterous talking shit to mexican gang members, over khans lackluster over molina

 

LOL, come on!!!

 

that was amusing

 

It's UK Pakis. They run shit over there, so I guess maybe they expect it to be the same in the States. Things did not go well for those guys that night.

 

haha .. at least it was dominant

 

When you beat a legend, you become a legend, like Jermain Taylor, Amir Khan, and Danny Garcia.

 

:giggle: well played, man

 

Maybe in like, 1 council estate in Bolton ;)
