Why Thurman too soft to beat Garcia?

The guy was hospitalized by a career feathweight in Guerrero; sighting headaches and dizziness. Got put in full "run time" mode vs a French senior citizen. Posted pics of boo-boos on his back after the Porter fight,has PTSD episodes anytime someone touches him to the body. Shared a brief,but very sensual snog with a male fan following the Karrass fight. To top it all off the guy wears a freaking ponytail. I don't care what anyone says the guy is s-o-f-t, my guess is that the first time that Garcia hooks him to midsection he'll be shook the rest of the fight. This may have a Cotto/Judah like out come.

Peterson could have pulled a clear win against Garcia if that guy in Lamont's corner just let Peterson be Peterson. Peterson the swarmer, which made it a living hell for Khan. Instead, he was told to run and run he did in the first half of the fight. Peterson said his self that the strategy was perfect. If he attacks early while Garcia has steam in his punches, he could have possibly gotten caught by something. Their entire strategy was structured on the premise that Garcia would tire.

I seen Thurman hurt and he fights his way out of it and wins. Don't think that he is soft

its an uncompetitive fight, theres almost no basis to pick garcia over thurman other than 'he finds a way to win'. But he didnt really find a way to win against peterson or herrera did he, he basically lost the fights. Thurman's style lends itself to being countered, Danny is one of the best counterpunchers in the sport. Thurman doesn't respond well to body shots, Danny is one of the most consistent body punchers in the sport.

He head-butted DSG as well, kind of one of his go to tactics at this point. You would have thought that Thurman's substantial size advantage would have been able to prevent him from being roughed up. You never know what can happen after headbutt ,no matter how big opponent is ,just bad luck from Thurman ,i agree that he is weak to the body doe.

He beat Gurrero way better than how Garcia, did Thurman won a shutout, Garcia barley edged it out, Thurman and Porter were punching each other non stop for twelve rounds, talking about being soft, Thurman is a great fighter who has ballz, fighting Porter than Garcia man ain't slowing down Thurman only got hit four times less by Guerrero than Danny did. Thurman doesn't have balls for fighting a one dimensional opponent that had already been soundly beaten before.
