Amir Khan thinks that his world title loss to Danny Garcia last night was due to complacency on his part.

Amir Khan has admitted that he was too "complacent" in his world title loss to Danny Garcia last night.

The Bolton fighter started well in the opening two rounds but was caught by a huge left hook from American Garcia as the third came to a close before the fight was stopped in the fourth.

Khan said afterwards that it wasn't his night, telling HBO Sports: "We got a little complacent and he took advantage and he caught me.

"I was a little surprised the referee stopped it. I thought he was going to let us continue. My mind was clear and I thought my legs were okay but I respect the referee, the judges and the commission, maybe they made the right call."

He has also recently tweeted a message of apology to his fans, writing: "Can I apologize to my family friends and everyone. I got caught with a shot and I know millions of u are upset but that's boxing for u."

Khan's next career move is now up in the air as he has lost his world title and will struggle to get a shot at the likes of Floyd Mayweather Jr.
