Danny Garcia vows to hurt Amir Khan!
Monday, July 2nd, 2012 1:43:50 by Imran Shaukat KhanThe WBC junior welterweight champion Danny Garcia is fully geared up ahead of his mega clash with Bolton’s finest Amir Khan, which will take place at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The American boxer, also known as Swift, will enter the ring as an underdog against Khan but he has solid plans of upsetting the Brit because in one of his recent interviews he has vowed to upset Khan.
While talking on his inclusion, Garcia stated that Khan is an overrated boxer and he will teach him a bitter lesson in the ring.
“I believe that everything happens for a reason. I think it’s the perfect time for this fight. I’m the champion and he calls himself the best. If he calls himself the best then he has to beat the champion. To me, it’s just another guy in my way trying to defeat me, but it ain’t gonna happen,“ Garcia said to The Boxing Lab, BoxingScene.com’s official audio show.
The 24-year-old undefeated prospect, who holds a perfect record of winning all of his 23 professional fights, with 14 of his wins coming by the way of a knockout, insisted that he will be ready for whatever Khan will bring in the ring.
He said, “Everybody says he’s fast and all that, but he reaches a lot with his punches and I think that’s where he goes wrong. I’m a great counter-puncher, so if he comes in and he wants to reach – then he has to pay. If he wants to fight then we can fight. If he wants to box then we could box. Whatever he wants to do, I’m going to adapt in there and make a exciting fight and win.”
Garcia is also not concerned about Khan’s previous opponents since he reckons all of his fights were set up.
While sharing his thought, Garcia claimed that Khan has never fought anyone like him and therefore he will be surprised on the fight night.
Well, the 25-year-old, who is more commonly known as King Khan, has called this his last fight at 140lbs division since he wants to move up to the 147lbs division where the likes of Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather junior operates.
Khan had the same plans last year as well but his dreams were quashed by the American pugilist Lamont Peterson, who has now been stripped off by the authorites following his positive drug test.
Keeping these facts in front, it is fair to say that this is Khan’s last chance to get back under the main lights because he anxiously wants to set up a fight with the undefeated American legend Floyd Mayweather junior and for that he will have to secure a win over the confident Garcia.
Well, all said and done, there is not much time left in the fight now. Let’s see if Danny Garcia can really shock the world by defeating Amir Khan in the ring.
