By Mohamed Horomtallah: Undefeated champion Danny “Swift” Garcia shared his thoughts on the upcoming fight between Floyd “Money” Mayweather and Amir “King” Khan (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I_DkX7sQyFQ).
He said that he believes it will be more competitive and more exciting than Mayweather’s last fight against Saul “Canelo” Alvarez. Danny who faced Khan in 2012 thinks that Khan’s speed, movement and work rate will challenge the pound for pound king.
Garcia should know what he’s talking about and maybe that’s why he doesn’t want a rematch with Khan because should Khan fight a little bit smarter, he knows he does not stand a chance.
By Mohamed Horomtallah: Some so-called hardcore fans have raised doubts with respect to this fight, claiming that Amir Khan (28-3, 19 KO’s) does not deserve the shot and that it would be an easy win for Floyd Mayweathe Jr. (45-0, 26 KO’s), thus not worth paying for.
By Mohamed Horomtallah: No, Floyd Mayweather Jr is not fighting Adrien Broner. At least not that I know of but he might end up knocking him out just the same. Broner is a young and very talented fighter but hanging out with Mayweather can jeopardize his career.

Did he loose his legs? Did his incarceration make him mentally weaker? Will he be able to resist to Guerrero roughing him up and putting constant pressure on him?
By Mohamed Horomtallah: It seems that everybody has pretty much buried Manny Pacquiao after his 6th round knock out against Marquez. They say that he’s done and can no longer be the fighter he once was. They back that argument by bringing up the fact that Pacquiao has now lost 2 fights in a row and didn’t convince in the 3rd Marquez fight. I beg to disagree.
By Mohamed Horomtallah The year is almost over and it has been good to boxing. We were privileged to witness great fights filled with excitement, drama and surprises. As the year ends, the script is ready and the pieces are falling into place to give us an amazing new year of boxing.
By Mohamed Horomtallah: The disturbing and scary images of Manny Pacquiao motionless on the canvas are still on everybody’s mind. The brutal knocked down he suffered at the hands, or rather the perfectly timed right hand of Juan Manuel Marquez will have a big effect.
By Mohamed H: Floyd Mayweather stands alone. No one is at his level. No one is dedicated to his craft like he is. Mayweather is a maestro that gives recitals every time he performs. He is the Pavarotti of boxing.
A great deal has been said and written about Danny Garcia beating Amir Khan. Some fans and writers believe Khan got exposed while others marvel at Garcia’s punching power. A cold analysis of that fight will reveal the following: Garcia didn’t beat Khan. Khan beat himself. Garcia was throwing that left hook of his during the first 3 rounds and wildly missing with it.
