"Golden Boy is trying to wrap up the junior welterweight showdown between unified titlist Danny Garcia and interim titleholder Lucas Matthysse, which is one of the best fights in boxing. Although the main focus has been on finalizing it as a Sept. 7 Showtime main event, Schaefer said there is a possibility that it could land on the Sept. 14 Floyd Mayweather Jr.-Canelo Alvarez card as the co-feature. If that happens, the show would rank as one of the best pay-per-view cards ever."

Credit? Stepping up to the plate? Isnt the entire point of this sport to prove who is the best in each division? So now we're giving credit to fighters who SHOULD be taking on these types of fights in the first place. This is what they're SUPPOSED TO BE DOING!
no he wouldn’t need the credit if everyone on this board didn’t assume things and make all these threads that he’s a coward and a duck, and now it seems the fight is getting made, everyone should man up and say they were wrong about him.
Fighting a mandatory and the recognized "second best fighter in the division" a year after he became your mandatory. What a warrior.
hes only had 2 fights since the khan fight, morales used the rematch clause and zab is a bigger name aka more money. Stop complaining the fight is here
I've said that since the moment Matthysse flattened Peterson. Don't even start talking to me like I'm somebody else.
It's not that they don't have a choice. It's more the fact that Al Haymon manages three of the fighters. Way eaaasy to negotiate business smoothly.
So now the excuse is that they don't have a choice? :lol1: :lol1:

True, but isnt there alot of fights that have rematch clauses and they dont always happen?
No, there's not many fights that have iron clad rematch clauses.
I know the fight is getting made. No one involved has a choice. Not Lucas, not Danny, not Golden Boy, and not Haymon.
So now the excuse is that they don't have a choice? :lol1: :lol1:
Danny's fans wanna give him credit for taking a fight that he should've taken after Matthysse knocked out Soto over a year ago. :lol1:

exactlyy!! :biggthump:boxing:
That wasn't Danny's fault though, Morales had a rematch clause, he had to fight Morales again.

Lol at those idiots who thought Danny/Judah 2 talks were actually serious. Like i said before, Judah just trying to keep his name out their.
And :lol1: @ the morons who actually considered or believed the stupid rumor that Garcia was demanding a $5 million purse to fight Matthysse, despite the fact that they share the same manager! :lol1:

Well to be fair alot of people thought morales/garcia II was a joke at first but it ended up being true

I think the fight will do like 1.8 million on PPV.
It's interesting that it's already broken the live gate record in Vegas though. Who knows???
It's already got a decent amount of hype, imagine when all the commercials and shows are going on during the last week, the hype will be increased by a lot. It could hit the 2 million mark.

If it happens gt give credit to danny for taking it...
Still think its not gna happen though
The fight will get done, you guys just look for every ounce of negativity you can find to bash the kid, who is stepping up to the plate. He has enough options to duck this fight yet the fight is getting made.

And you guys act like little girls, saying, "I thought Garcia was a duck?" every time someone says the fight is almost done. Then a week and another week and another week passes without the fight getting done.
