Khan V Mollina

Impressed by Khan's speed (as always) but Mollina didn't really offer much in return, when he did he he was catching Khan (without any real power). It will be interesting if he takes the Danny Garcia rematch. Jim Watt commentary was bordering on ridiculous, I know they like to get behind the home fighter but Jesus.
 
Donaire with another awesome KO

Khan looked quite good, although Molina had little

Deontay Wilder would get wrecked by David Price.

Alfredo Angulo was terrible. Don't know what Virgil Hunter is trying to do with him.

And i hate Danny Garcia and his Dad. Good night of boxing.

Garcia himself annoys me, you can just tell he thinks he's big time. He could fight Khan 10 times and the only chance he'd have of winning is a punchers one, nothing more. He was getting schooled in their fight till he landed the big shot.

But his dad makes me laugh tbh. Think he plays up to his persona a bit and it seems to work. Everyone Garcia fights seems to get wound up by him. Zab Judah kicked off with him a couple of weeks at their press conference.
 
Garcia's dad's a ****. I saw one show where he said he'd beaten cancer. One would expect a man who's beaten a serious illness to have more dignity and generosity of spirit.

Khan was a class above Molina but he wasn't a class above Garcia. His speed might be a class above but his balance, his footwork, his ringcraft and his weight of shot aren't

Garcia found it hard to accustom himself to Khan's speed but only for a couple of rounds. He didn't just land one lucky punch, he knocked Khan down three or four times. Khan might be a favourite in a rematch but not much of one.

Agree with every word of this.

Khan won every second of every round till he got caught with the first big shot, at the end of the 3rd round I think?

After that he never got his legs back, which is why he was knocked down a couple more times. The damage was done with that 1 shot.

Khan definitely doesn't help himself though when he wants to get into a war if he gets hurt rather than holding on.

He's chinny. Always has been, always will be.
Even glorified featherweights and washed up has-beens like Gomez put him on his arse earlier in his career. I can't believe anybody would expect his punch resistance to be better against a superior class of fighter

Do you disagree with anything I've said regarding him dominating that fight till the knockdown and/or Garcia's only chance against him being a punchers one?

I never said he wasn't glass chinned.
