But as the paragraph says, today's Anatolian and Azeri Turks also have Khazar ancestry since Khazars is connected to Seljuk and Seljuk in return in common ancestor of Turkics of Anatolian Turks, Azeri, Turkmen, etc.yes i mean thatand i think ashika is khazar relative

I think non-Turkic peoples of today in that region also have Khazar genes. When they lost their empire they assimilated into other identities. From genetic test even some Jews from Europe have Khazar genes. I read most Jews in Europe were from Khazar ethnicity. I don't know how true that is.
and i think ashika is khazar relative
originally, Byzantine army was probably significiantly greater then Seljuks, but suckers parted a portion of their forces and that force is destroyed by Seljuks(some sources says deserted), some of their European mercenaries lefy and started plundering Anatolia as well, numbers were probably close in Manzikert(But Byzantines were probably still more numerous), but their relief force which was waiting behind left the battle field, even if Turkics didn't switched I think Seljuks woud still won, enemy done stupid mistakes.
, this is what's really happen at Manzikert
