Peterson said he'd fight lucas , fight gets made in almost record time.

I don't understand how there's a hold up. We knew this fight was going to be made before Garcia-Judah and Matthysse-Peterson. They couldn't have figured this crap out ahead of time? Seriously, this should have been official a week or two after Matthysse-Peterson.

Because pederson is a nobody so GBP could use him, gracia and Lucas are more precious to them so they're not in a hurry up match these two.

or this fight is to soon should be a PPV money fight .They need more time to bulid the hype up expect both to fight more bums

The venue seems to be the only issue, but people want to hear something else. They said money too. And do you really think it's Matthysse asking for more? I mean, this man passed on Peterson's belt cause he wants Garcia in particular. Posted from Boxingscene.com App for Android

as far as the venue goes, from what i remember they said a.c and brooklyn was taken. they talked about d.c mainly because they were gonna put judah/peterson on the undercard. it was reported that zab may fight alvarado instead. without peterson in a good fight, d.c doesn't make much sense. they want L.A but arum has staples center locked up. so it sounds like they could be scrabbling trying to find a place to hold the fight.....or garcia might be scared lol. Just say Danny is scared. All The other stuff before that makes too much sense for these Garcia haters to understand.

Schaefer is pretty good at getting fights made when he wants to. I think Garcia will fight Matthysse on September 7 th. He will look pretty bad if the fight does not happen. Few people would believe that it did not happen because of Matthysse.

The fight will happen next IMO. They may be sorting out whether it will have it's own show or be on the Mayweather-Canelo undercard. I think they want to do it before the floyd canelo ppv so they can maximum marketing for that fight. if floyd is gonna fight the winner-its almost better they fight in a TV main rather tha the ppv semi main. Makes the victory appear bigger.

from today. he saids he wants it. we'll see. but but but Garcias scared!!! lolololololol

from today. he saids he wants it. we'll see.

I still think the fight is going to happen. We as boxing fans are just impatient as hell. Peterson was just coming off of fighting Holt on ESPN for like 50,000. I think he would have fought Golovkin for a nice pay day. I don't think Danny is scared. If I'm wrong I'll be the first to admit it. It's borne out of a justified lack of trust in promoters.

Don't think Garcia is a coward. He's going to fight him. Matthysse couldn't be the #1 contender any clearer than this. He has to fight him. And he's not that sort of lame #1 contender based on hype or simply there by default because other guys lost. Matthysse is simply a guy that can't be avoided anymore and there has been enough Matthysse exposure to make it worth it ($) for Garcia.

Yeah but I'm guessing it's more fashionable to call Danny Garcia a punk That's what it is! Yes you are correct... But if the fight isnt made this year and danny takes another zab/morales fight it will be a huge duck... But im holding out hope it gets done

Watch Schafer will come out sorry guys fight is canceled couldn't get a venue before canelo mayweather. With canelo mayweather tho mayweather had no other options comparing apples and oranges.

Yeah i did hear it was venue and money that were holding it up to be fair to danny...

That's what it is!

Lucas has been want g to fight Garcia and is his mandatory, and we pretty much hear crickets. Now I'm not saying Garcia is scared he might be he might not be, it can also be his handlers . But as soon as Peterson beat up holt negotiations began soon after, why not with Garcia? This is the same situation with Floyd - Canelo. It was taking a while to be made, we heard about negotiations, it was all hush hush, people were saying it wouldn't get made/Floyd is scared and then bam! It gets done. Can people not just be patient before we call everyone a duck and wait to see when their next fights are announced? Sometimes things just take a little bit more time. By the way I know you're not saying he is scared, I'm just venting at everyone who calls fighters scared before even knowing the score.

What's the issue with the venue? http://espn.go.com/blog/dan-rafael/post/_/id/4303/gbp-working-on-garcia-matthysse' Only issue so far is the site, also said it's important this take place before Mayweather-Canelo as they will need the fight to help promote it.
