The consensus on NSB prior to Garcia vs Matthysse seemed to be that Floyd should fight the winner of that fight. Now since Garcia upset Matthysse people are on mute about Mayweather vs Garcia. We all know damn well that if Lucas won that fight, this place would be flooded daily with Floyd is ducking Matthysse threads. Do I think Danny beats Floyd? Nope but he deserves a chance, I'm not underestimating Swift, he's proven he's a damn good fighter. He still seems to get very little respect around here. Imo DSG has a much better chance against Mayweather than Matthysse does. Floyd likely beats DSG but the same could be said for any fighter from 140-154lbs.
Give Thurman a year. Broner might build a PPV following too.
Garcia, I'm not sure. Bradley, never.
Oh yeah, I forgot about him.
I guess I should correct myself and say Garcia and Bradley are the only likely American PPV potentials who won't be a complete and utter embarrassment. Imagine if that guy became the only known name to casuals in boxing.
After Canelo, Garcia and Bradley have the next best chances of becoming a PPV attraction for Americans. Canelo might get away with losing to Mayweather because of his looks and large Mexican following, but Bradley and Garcia are in an uphill battle as it is. They should just have them fight other people.

That pretty much is the only way to beat floyd there is no way in hell you are out boxing him.
I think you have a better chance of winning by mixing in boxing than you do just trying to KO him.
Posters are convinced the only way to beat floyd is to KO him. Since Matts has one punch ko power the assume he would have a better chance to beat floyd.

Because people on here wanted badly to make threads saying Floyd is scared of Lucas and making threads like that they enjoy more than actually watching boxing matches.

I'm not hating Danny because I was the few that had picked him to win. There is not out cry for this fight because Danny hasn't had that dominant killer performance. He has beaten Judah and Lucas in close fights
The point is that people were talking heavily about Lucas fighting Floyd and if he had beaten Garcia there would be even more talk of the fight and how "Floyd don't want it" etc and thats considering that Lucas fared worse vs Judah and also dropped a decision to Alexander...Matthysse would only have a punchers chance much like most Mayweather opponents in and around his weight class.
The disparity between the enthusiasm for Lucas fighting Floyd and Danny fighting Floyd is vast and just doesn't make sense considering the facts.
I think Danny could take on Floyd. Slim chance but I'd back him lol. I would like Danny to fight at 147 for a fight or two before he faces Mayweather

The moron Weebler makes some stupid bitter excuse ''He's a static counter puncher'' trying to sound like an expert :rolleyes:
Fact is Danny deserves the fight and doesn't need to fight at 147 because he will be the same weight as Floyd on fight night FFS.
Bitter Matthysse groupies are mad that the prophecy of Angel Garcia came true and they're just full of pure unmitigated hate for Garcia.
Garcia is more of a threat to Mayweather than Bradley. Garcia has real punching power, hits harder than Matthysse and is p4p top 5 punchers in the sport.
Bradley doesn't even have a punchers chance, Danny does.
Off topic, but great gif of Dannys left to Lucas head, never realized he rocked him like that.
It probably would've helped Garcia's case had he stopped Matts, therefore transferring all of Matt's momentum to himself. He's still in the running for Mayweather, hopefully GBP sets up Khan/Garcia 2 instead of Khan/Mayweather.
Amen to that, I rather watch Garcia/May than Khan/May
People still don't wanna give Garcia credit SMH.
Never seen a boxer so hated in all my life.
Matthysse fans really are butthurt.
From the available opponents for Floyd I think that Danny is in the top 2 or 3. The problem is that he hasn't fought at WW
He whipped the dog **** out of the so called boogie man.
SMFH I swear the Garcia haters on this site are the worst.
Most hated boxer on this site.
SMH.

If Lucas would had won by KO or dominant fashion he would be in position because he had the most momentum and mystic. Danny still looks beatable and doesn't do any one thing outstanding.

People might be tired of Floyd having fighters move up in weight were he is the huge favorite. Some of us would like to see fight him someone where he isn't the overwelming favorite once in his career. He might have to do what he expects his opponents to do, move up against a bigger opponent.
He just did LOL everybody wanted the fight and were saying Floyd was ducking him , if you go through Floyds career he has been the smaller man on fightnight in 90% of his fights ; do the same for Manny and you will see it the other way around .
The trouble with Floyd is he just too good ; in the WW division NOBODY his size will touch him , you must go to MW to find what is considered a challenge , the ONLY reason Pac appears to be considered is because of his fanbase being vocal kids , mainstream media all think Floyd will beat the crap out of Manny , all trainers and boxers pick Floyd , yet if the fight happens and Floyd schools him they will say Manny is shot , so we all know how its going to go , same with Floyd every fight the hater fanboys never give any credit .
Floyd is too good for the whole field and the sour grape losers dont like it LOL , so they will say nobody his size is worthy and lets keep going up to bigger and bigger men hopefully somebody will beat him lol .
Garcia and Bradley are both worthy , both gunna lose but they are champion unbeaten fighters , if Floyd beat them both , who has beaten three genuine undefeated world champions spanning 3 weight classes , I cant think of anyone , does anyone know if its been done before ?
