I was trying to figure out why Danny Garcia is such a hated figure in boxing,I mean in this in your face/entitled generation of athletes he's humble,and hard working.He has neither blazing speed or skull shattering power,but boxings suppose to be a sport where the internal workings of a fighter(I.e mental fortitude,heart,and determination)reign supreme.My conclusion is that boxing much like life is composed of hypocrisy,contradiction,and bias.David is revered as long as he isn't imprinting those stones in the skull of my Goliath.He beat my fighter(Khan/Matthysse,)and grudges were made.his competitive fights are losses,solid performances are now mediocre.Jubilation will be mine when he is defeated.
Though I don't dislike Garcia, what bothers me about him is the fact that he seems so damn beatable. He seems incapable of giving off this aura of dominance that top fighters tend to have, as he does nothing especially well. He reminds me of Bradley in that sense, but he just finds a way to keep winning. I'm intrigued to see how long he can stay undefeated, and what it will take to defeat him. Also, I just don't find him all that entertaining. He throws punches like a brawler, but has the composure and output of a counter-puncher.
Your post mirrors my exact feeling about Garcia, I never thought he does anything special, he doesn't have that aura like you talk about as well but he does his thing and wins, i can't blame him for that lol.
He beat Lucas Matthyse. The same guys they made gif and sig about how Garcia and his daddy were ducking, going to duck etc Even when the fight was signed they announced Garcia obituary and wonder if he was going to turn up, they even wonder how angel would react if his son turned up, would he watch his son take a beating? would he throw in the towel? they didnt think for one minute that Garcia had a chance, if you give Garcia a chance like myself and some other did at the time, you would get instant abuse about how Garcia only beat a china chinny Khan and old ancient Morales.
He is hated because he beat one of this forums mythical monsters in Mattyshee..plain and simple.
^^^^this
Matthyesse was supposed to be the monster who finally battered Floyd, he was supposed to brutalize Danny Garcia on Floyd's undercard, and then finally give Floyd the comeuppance that people have been hoping for.
Danny derailed all of that.
This is the kind of ignorance that plagues this forum and drags us down as a whole. He doesn't dress like a gay parade, he dresses like he's IN a gay parade. One man couldn't be a whole parade unto himself. He'd certainly qualify as a participant though.
^^^^^ bwahahahahahahaha
Garcia is not a guy where I would be like "ooh, I really want to watch him fight" he's more like "uh, is he going to barely win?"
Judah nearly gave him a run in the late rounds and Judah was supposed to be done in his career by then. Herrera beat him in Puerto Rico which was supposed to be a fight to introduce Garcia to the fans there...he was slated to be the guy that the Puerto Ricans could attach to like Trinidad and Cotto, but he lost the fight and got the decision. The Peterson fight was another one where he got the decision, but this one is not as significant as the Herrera fight.
Nothing that Danny did last night impressed me (I even lost points in pick'em on Malignaggi getting knocked down - think about that one). I think his slow looping punches will get him in trouble against any of the top 5 in the division. He hasn't been impressive since the Matthyse fight, where he was down early on the scorecards and was well on his way to losing the fight if Mathysse hadn't suffered a freak eye injury.

Honestly the reason I root against Danny is because of Angel
Maybe that's pathetic, and trust me I've contemplated the stupidity of that, but hey, that's all I got
Angel's cocaine induced rants and his insistence on inserting the race card at every opportunity makes me not able to stand the dude
But Danny, you know Danny's honestly not that bad
Danny seems to have a pretty decent head on his shouldersDecent honest post.
Why don't you just ask people who hate him why instead of speculate?
I hate him because:
1. He dresses like a gay parade
2. His dad is a crackhead
He is a pretty good boxer though and I hate Malignaggi even more (dresses like a gay parade, sore loser) so it was easy to watch him win a mismatch last night.
Homophobic?

Its because he keeps getting gift decisions and runs off without giving rematches he could of ended all the backlash if he rematched herrera and actually beat him like did matthysse.and also for that horrible cherry pick fight against salka.I used to like danny he made me some money when I bet on him to beat matthysse but after the herrera fight and everything that happened after I was no longer a fan.
I never cared about Matthysse myself. Doesn't mean I can't look at the guy below and say to myself "Yeah, I just don't like this guy. At all.".

Exactly. Some guys you just don't like off appearance. That's racist doe. You can add how he completely played down the fact that Herrera scraped him. There's no room for that in fighting, you need to own up when you get beat.
I said shawn porter was a young up and comer. Shawn Porter was a young up and comer.
They're the same age, but porter destroyed malignaggi last year, not last night lol
It's funny hearing a guy with Garcia's cum stains on his chin talk about bias.
Porter fights in a completely different style from Garcia and moved down from Middle weight Garcia moved up in weight.
