Garcia doesnt have to look for Porter so this fight could have fireworks
For sure. Danny's gonna catch him coming in all wild and stupid more than a few times.
Porters pretty big and strong for a WW, so I can see him mauling Danny to a decision, of course the left hook could come on the inside too. I'd hope Garcia loses so we can be rid of him.
50/50 fight. I might give a very slight edge to danny because of his chin and counter punching. Porter should be easy for him to find.
Porter is strong and aggressive as hell though and has a great motor, so he definitely would have his moments too.
Should be action packed!
I am happy about this fight. It was good of Thurman to vacate his title and step down. They are the two top contenders with Spence already a champion and Crawford fighting for a title. I think it's a close fight. I think Porter will probably win a close ud by constant pressure and throwing a lot more punches and landing a few more punches.Porter can't be too reckless because Garcia is a good counter puncher with power.
I think Garcia is a slightly better counter puncher to Thurman, and is a little sturdier too. Don't get me wrong, Thurman proved to be the better fighter, but stylistically Garcia has some things he can exploit better than Thurman did. The flip side is that Garcia is easier to hit and isn't quite as long, he also doesn't have Thurman's movement. With that all said I think Garcia by close decision in what will be a great, high contact fight.
