Danny Garcia wants to be the best by beating Amir Khan – Boxing News
Danny Garcia, the current WBC light welterweight champion, wants to be the best in the business. According to Garcia, his fight against Khan is the moment of cementing his legacy in the industry. Garcia wants to beat Khan to become the most prominent light
welterweight in the history of sport.
Danny Garcia currently stands with 23 wins, 0 losses and 14 knockouts. He has remained unbeatable, even though he has faced some of the world fiercest fighters. Garcia knocked out Erik Morales in March this year, a victory that surprised most boxing fans.
Speaking about his performance against Morales, Garcia stated, “I think that I showed a lot of heart in that fight. In the 11th round, he cut me on my eyebrow and I started bleeding and my nose was a little swollen. I stood there and I traded with a Mexican
warrior, and the fans loved it, and that's what people want to see in boxing.”
He added, “(fans) They want to see blood, sweat and tears. When the times got heated, and people thought my nose was broken, and my eye was bleeding, my heart got pumped up and I stood there and I traded.”
According to Garcia, if Khan believes he is the best then he needs to beat the champion to become the best. However, Garcia believes that this will be Khan’s last mega-bout, as after being defeated by him the Bolton proud will not have much to say or do.
It should be noted here that the bout between Khan and Garcia is now a title unification bout, after the WBA stripped Lamont Peterson off the title. The vacant WBA light welterweight title is now on the line for Khan’s fight against Khan.
If Khan wins, he will once again unify the titles. However, if Danny is successful in defending his WBC light welterweight title, he will unify the titles for the first time in his life.
