Majority of people including myself are predicting a win for Danny Garcia but Peterson is a live dog. If he throws a high output and moves around a lot he can win, just because Matthsse Ko'd him doesn't mean Garcia will as we know triangle theories dont work. Does Peterson stand a chance?
If Peterson doesn't get caught with the GARSH early in the fight I give him a great chance to pull out the upset. He gets strong in the middle rounds and if he is able to get on the inside his going to suffocate Danny. Next two months are packed with good fights, can't wait
Nope. Come forward fighter without a punch nor much of a chin and doesn't have the inside boxing ability of Herrera. I don't see how anyone could possibly pick Pederson to win.
Peterson is a better inside fighter than Herrera, at least when it pertains to having a two handed attack or just plain offense, Herrera is just pretty crafty, knows how to clinch and smother.
Lamont's problem is he likes to trade but has no chin. Khan dropped him, Bradley dropped him, Matthysse dropped him 3 times and KO'd him, Ortiz dropped him twice. Danny will eventually catch him.
That was all early though, within the first 3 rounds. If Lamont makes it out of those early rounds, Garcia isn't stopping him.

Peterson will have to KO Garcia to win. I suspect he will start slow but by round 3, the fight will be an inside war of attrition. Peterson takes the lead and should have it by 3 or 4 rounds when the final bell rings. Unfortunately, Garcia is the hype fighter in this one and will be given all the rounds in a disgusting display of judging that leaves many people upset.
Just like with Matthysse right? Oh wait lol!

if lamont keeps a high guard to protect from the left hooks he will win.
Garcia gonna piss blood for a week IMO
Lol...since when is Pederson some kind of wrecking machine?
If no one has realized, Garcia cant fight guys with a good Jab. Morales was tagging him with it and thats how Herrera set up all his punches because Danny goes straight back. Now peterson does have an awesome jab, hes just mentally weak and gets tricked into trading and thats how Danny will beat him. But he is a live dog and if he comes to box, Garcia could lose the 143lb title (lol)

Not really, I'm sure this is the perfect opponent for Garcia at this point, not a power puncher and every big fight he had, he loses (forget the Khan fight, it was in his hometown and there was some shady stuff going on with ref and some mysterious guy ringside). Garcia will win and look good in the process, all of these PBC are careful match making, low risk (smaller, older, slower and less skill), high reward (big payday, low risk of loss or damage). Look at all the match ups so far, they look okay on paper, but Thurman vs Guerrero, Broner vs Molina and Berto vs Lopez. Stevenson defending the 175 crown against a 168 fighter who has 6 losses and a couple of draws.
Peterson will come to fight, but Garcia will win.
You're the first guy that seems to think Lamont has no chance. Peterson has a great chance of winning this with his inside fight game but I'm riding with Danny.

Lamont is a live dog and I truly think this will go the distance.
Lamont said recently the 143 weight helps him as he will be able to pack on muscle etc.

I think so. Garcia is rightly the favorite, but that doesn't mean Lamont is coming in there to just lay down. Should be fun to watch.
I think most people don't give a Lamont a chance to win because when has he ever won a fight against a live opponent. Every time he steps up he loses but Garcia does tend to perform poorly when he isn't the underdog.
He beat Khan and would have beaten Ortiz if the fight was 12 rounds instead of 10.
