Can Danny Garcia Become A Superstar Thanks To The New York Rican?

[Rome-By-Ko]

thats real talk!!!

I mean Garcia can get fans Cotto can't..Majority of Cotto fans are ricans, Garcia can get youth in general, but he has to hold up his end of the deal, which is to keep winning...

even the puerto ricans dont really like him that much, lol, juanma and vazquez jr were better as future stars for the ricans, lol, danny garcias fanbase will have to be the hip hop fanbase and most people that follow hip hop(culture) dont follow boxing, lol, they follow casual sports like football and basketball, lol, if you can get the actual mexicans or real island puerto ricans to like garcia, lol, garcia might be a star but he doesnt have the right support in the hip hop community so he will be just like a american rican version of zab judah

This is where your wrong,who do you think follows Mayweather??Young hipsters(not to say older folks don't like May as well),or people from an urban background..Garcia imo has this same appeal,he is young and speaks well..Not a big trash talker(he let's his father handle that)nice clean cut good looking kid...The Porta rocks will ride with Garcia if he keeps winning,cause he is one of them(no matter what fam)..But he has way more crossover appeal then either Vazquez or JML...

If Gracia keeps winning,he'll be a draw nice draw in this sport...

Garcia isn't really that good, so can't see him becoming any sort of superstar.

[IMDAZED]

lol, i am a rios fan but you know its true, lol, i bet the ricans on the island hate rios right nowcause he is loud and arrogant, lol, he will never become a oscar or trinindad but a win vs rios is a step in the right direction for dannys career, lol,



angel garcia can cause major damage if danny loses a fight where angel talks **** about a fighter that danny loses to, danny should fire his dad or tell his dad to quiet down someday

Angel Garcia, by being who he is, is actually helping Danny become a star.

[Russian Crushin]

No, he won't....he's a Philly fighter

No Danny will never be a superstar. He is the PR version of Tim Bradley. Sorry to say it and he seems like a nice kid, but he just does not have "IT". You need an "IT" factor to be a superstar. Fighters like Floyd, Pac, RJJ, Bhop, ODLH, Judah, etc. have an IT factor. Fighters like Dawson, Garcia, Bradley, etc. do not. There is really nothing they can do about it to be honest, they just do not have that superstar quality. As far as Danny, he is a good fighter, but does nothing "great". Whether you love/hate Pac, Floyd, Cotto, Bhop, etc....they are all great at certain things or have something intangible that makes them a superstar. Danny will never be one, no matter who he beats sorry. He is just not a dynamic fighter. I mean maybe something will happen to change that? Not sure but as of right now no he will never have popularity like Cotto.

EXCELLENT POST!!!!! Couldn't have said it better myself.

Depends on how the Puerto Ricans treat Rican-Americans I guess.
In Mexico for example, no one pays attention to the Mexican-Americans. They're considered "fake" Mexicans down here.

How are the Ricans about this whole situation?

[IMDAZED]

He's not being marketed as a Puerto Rican fighter and that's probably the biggest roadblock to him right now. I don't necessarily buy that it's the fans who won't "accept" him. Fernando Vargas is a Mexican-American and he was accepted (albeit briefly) by Mexican fans at the outset, culminating in huge support against rivals Trinidad and, of course, the "fake Mexican." in fact, at one point I think Vargas was referring to himself as the real Mexican, even though he represented the U.S. in the Olympics .

In order to become a star, Garcia would have to continue to win impressively (no easy task), form a steady base (Puerto Rican and/or Black) and then find a rival (Rios?).
