Could Danny Garcia be damaged goods

Danny has been in some tough wars. That fight with Matthysse was brutal even though he won he took some very hard shots in there. At one time his mouth guard was hit out of his mouth. He has also faced some very good competition in Amir Khan, Morales and some good fighting with Zab Judah. Some of these fights can take the life out of a fighter. We all know that Judah is really past it but had some war with Danny. Now Herrerra claims Danny has no power. I'm not trying to take anything away from Herrerra who fought a very intelligent fight but is it also not possible that Danny Garcia is now damaged goods?

Its only because noone gave Herrea credit heading into this fight. He beat Ruslan.. now people can easily look back and say "He beat him before Ruslan was good" but no.. hes just a tough out as garcia is and it was a close fight.. Herrea is good nd im looking forward to Judah-Herrea if it goes down.

The pressure, past wars, etc. are probably taking a toll on him. He's getting way too much attention. He's about to turn 26 and it's a bit too much for him getting all of this attention. I had a feeling that Garcia has peaked quickly as with most lighter weight class fighters and it's only downhill from here on out unless he stays at 140. Once he moves to 147 and faces the elite fighters, his run would end quickly. No way he'd be able to handle two elite 147 lbers in a row.

Danny is just not that good. This is it. It hurts to the people that like him but its the God's honest truth.

i thought he was gonna walk through herrera and KO easily, but he was on the bike for most of the fight, and is not like herrera is a monster puncher, dude has 7 KOs or something, really bad fight for garcia

Angel said Danny was pissing blood after the Mattthysse fight.Similar to Chavez vs Taylor 1.Danny outboxed Lucas but took a beating doing it.

way to young to that lol but he did look bad last night, not cus of weight or previous fights, he simply couldn't deal with dudes style,that jab, the feints, and clinching/roughing on the inside was all key in how he made Garcia look bad, he was able to walk Garcia down and bust him up late in the fight just off the basics of boxing. keep the jab in his face, counter his wide shots, rough him up and mess up his rhythm and flow

Yeah I agree. Khan would blow Danny out with an average chin.

Danny was never that guy where you can point to and say "wow he does this or this so great" he does everything WELL. IMO he was very beatable, looking at the Theophane fight and the Khan fight you could see those styles would give him trouble. If Khans chin wasn't made of a Kleenex he would beat Danny fairly easily IMO

I don't know about damaged goods, but he looked really, really mediocre last night. Herrera deserves a lot of credit, though. He came to win and was not intimidated whatsoever.

He never really had any skills that pop out. Commentary touched on this the very first fight he was showcased in. He just has the intangibles it takes to win and seems to shine in the department that foils whoever is infront of him that given night. Ive only seen him in tough fights and never saw him dominate anyone personally.
