    Could Garcia end up being like Carl Froch?

    I mean they are both very slow, wide punchers, uncoordinated and everybody picks them to lose yet they win. I think Froch is the greatest overachiever boxing has seen given his athleticism and skill level. Could Danny Garcia overachieve against the likes of JMM, Bradley, Maidana and Mathyse. I'd probably pick Judah to beat him but I did pick Abraham against Froch as well.

    I hope they do throw Garcia in with Marquez so I can revel in his demise.

    Oh, the beating Marquez would put on Garcia would be exquisite.

      That's what I think too but then again I thought Taylor would destroy Froch...

        Garcia is just a power puncher with limited skill, he'll be shown up once he faces someone with a strong chin and quick hands

            Garcia's lack of skill will exposed. Marquez would school him. Its a shame Khan has such a fragile chin because he would've schooled him as well. Fair play to Garcia though he did what he said he would do but I can't see him going to the next level.

            Froch is a far better fighter in pretty much every area.

              I see people are STILL underestimating Garcia lol. I said it after the Morales fight and now I'll say it again, Garcia is gradually improving and hasn't yet reached his peak. Sure, he has a number of flaws that can be exploited, but he's shaping up to be a pretty solid counter-puncher with respectable power and good timing. Still needs to work on his defense a little more, but he's shown that he can keep his composure through mild adversity. Garcia still has a way to go to prove all the nay-sayers wrong, but I think he'll get there.

                Those wide shots were to get around Khan's ear muffs. His father spoke on the wide shots. They know what they're doing. Marquez is too old, I'd bet the bank that Danny retires him.
