    Why is Peterson better then Garcia???? He could have easily lost the decision to khan had that ref not called those lame pt deductions. & Remember that Danny been whooped Holt too so idk why people say Peterson is better like its so obvious.

      I think he's better. Good boxing skills, very good inside fighter, one of the best in the sport, tough, smart, relentless, lots of heart.

        Ok, I can't argue with any of that. Here's the good thing about all of this..... We will see who's the baddest at 140 when everything is all set and done.

          Really been waiting for this fight too. Peterson is very durable and has some pop, Matthysse has monster power....it has the makings of an all out war. Peterson has a very well-rounded attack though, great to the body, fights on the inside and outside. There are a lot of dynamics at play in this fight, both guys are mentally solid as well.

            Is Garcia even going to stay at 140?

              You know what's the thing, Peterson had been down before a few times and that makes for a bad night if he trades Lucas. Foty candidate for sure.

                Nothing. There are no elite fighters at 140. The winner of the tournament will be one though.

                  His power makes him extremely dangerous for any fighter.

                    Danny is fighting the winner we'll all see. Now while Peterson is probably the longest of the bunch, he has a terrible habit of pulling back too far with ear muffs on. That's detrimental when he's facing either of these 2 power punchers who have decent body attacks, we'll see.

                      IF he trades? We know based on past fights that he will be right in Lucas face. Fight will take place in the middle of the ring.
