Mirra, 7777 wake up the thread needs you!
Garcia is gonna make nice money being fed to Mayweather for his comebacking fight
Goldenboy won't put Garcia anywhere near Floyd, they're in different weight divisions for starters. Did you not see Oscar afterwards, I am convinced I actually saw $$ instead of two eyes. They will play up the whole Puerto Rican / American thing and they will all make lots of money. I expect Garcia to fight Maidana next, he is fairly crude but they will put him in fights that he will win for a good while yet
I thought McGuigan called it spot on last night when he said they were timing the 'same time' shot as that's what nailed Khan, they took a few rounds to get into rhythm but once that landed it was good night. He has proper power in both hands. All this bullshit about Khan being chinny should be swerved too, the shot on the neck would have dropped anyone, in fact he did fucking well to get up from it, debilitating punch. He will come again, they will re-invent him at 147 as they did at 140 after Prescott and he will still be in exciting fights cos that's his style. It's career limiting though!
I thought the whole macho "I'm going to knock him out" thing was just him playing back up to the camera's to Garcia and his camp and I thought he would fight a smart fight, I definitely thought the video they showed of him sparring on Beyond the Ropes was put in there on purpose cos he was getting fucking nailed and Roach was off training Chavez Jnr
He will leave Roach now I reckon, Freddie has too much on his hands with Pacquiao and Chavez Jnr and Freddie is looking progressively worse (his corner work wasn't brilliant was it). I hope Khan is honest enough after the fight though and take it for what it is, that he was caught flush and not make all sorts of excuses about a long camp or start blaming Ruben Tabares etc
Haye was boss and did as I expected, Chisora is very very limited and it sort of puts the fight with Vitali into perspective. Haye said he isn't fighting again this year and Klitschko is set to fight Manuel Charr (who called Haye out politely at the post fight presser) before going into parliament so I will be surprised if that fight gets made and besides, Vitali will be two years on by then from when Chisora fought him so what would it really mean, much rather see a rematch with Wlad?
On a side note, besides Garcia Snr, is there anyone more annoying in boxing than Sam Watson and his two fucking Winky wanabee sons, camera hogging twats
