It's not a toss up. Garcia is tailor made for Lucas as well. Damn near every boxer near those weight classes are tailor made for Lucas.
You wanna box, OK, I'll box with you, and tag you while you run, and eventually get to you, and I won't get robbed on the scorecards, because of Haymon.
You wanna ****, OK, Ill knock you the fugg out.
So Judah and Alexander were tailor made for Lucas? Garcia did a much better job on Judah then Mattysse.
Can we get one thing straight: Garcia has only KO'd Morales who had fought with the Aztecs back in A.D 1450 and Khan who an old Julio Diaz nearly KO'd on numerous occasions. His power isn't discombobulatingly devastating like Matthysse's.
Danny's win over khan is equal to Matthyses win over Peterson.
The fact Morales is even mentioned on top wins is laughable. Not to mention Morales was winning the first bout until his old body gassed around the 6th or something IIRC.
thats what alot of people think about Lucas too. I thnk Garcia is underrated and can do everything fairly well. He'll never be great but he's well schooled and gets the absolute most out of his ability. Ill take that over talent who cant get the most out of there ability like Chad Dawson.
Garcia is good at everything but great at nothing. He's very average and his success is with his age. Lucas has faced much better guys, guys who actually came to fight. Garcia has never even faced someone like Ajose other then Khan.
Peterson did some solid things in the 3rd round when he started brnging the fight to Lucas but he was already badly hurt by that point. Garcia will do that from round 1 on. Garcia takes risk and likes to swing with his opponent. So far he's been hurting guys and winning fights by doing that.
What did he do in the 3rd? He did land an uppercut but other then that nothing at all effective. He is also a great inside fighter where danny isnt. Danny does take risk and thats where his demise will come. Lucas is not morales
Against Lucas it could cause him to get KTFO but it wouldnt be shocking to me to see the exact opposite happen. Peterson is good but he still has lost before. When youre undefeated you have a different kinda confidence about yourself. After that 1st loss you become easier to beat but as of now, he's going to feel like he can truy win and that he's going to put Lucas in positions that Lucas has never been in.
It wouldnt be shocking but would be very unlikely. Peterson lost because he has faced Ortiz, Bradley, Khan and Lucas. Danny has only faced Khan, who actually stood a chance
Danny himself is strong. Its not going to be easy for Lucas to outmuscle him. Danny is wide & slow like Lucas says but Lucas isnt this great defensive wizard eitehr. He'll be hit by Garcia like he's never been hit before. It will be a great exciting fight for however long it last
Look how lucas pushed Lamont around and he was a big guy who fights inside. Danny doesnt and is very predictable. Sure he'll land, its boxing but his power has been extremely overrated
People shouldn't compare the Judah performances. Judah was Lucas' first step up fight, he hadn't even fought many 12 rounders before then. Prior to the fight, it was predicted that Zab would stop Lucas in the middle rounds. By contrast, Garcia was an established fighter by the time he faced an older/slower Judah. Lucas has improved a lot since 2010, and he was bound to have initial issues with his first taste of "the world level". Has Garcia improved in the month since he faced Zab? If anything, his was the less impressive performance. Zab rocked Garcia, and exposed his chin as hittable. Zab never hurt Lucas like that
Khan who destroyed Judah, was Garcia’s first step up fight, and he finished him in 4.
Danny's win over khan is equal to Matthyses win over Peterson.
In terms of how notable a KO it was? No it isn't.
If you mean in terms of how good a win then that's a fair comment but who else does Garcia have (excluding Judah as both have beaten him)? Lucas has a stack of other names.
If Matthysse is hype, then Garcia is one of the biggest hypejobs in the sport.
Alexander, Soto, Olusegon, and Peterson>>Khan and Morales
Olusegun? Lol who did he ever beat? Alexander isn't a great win y'all claim he's a bum on this forum. Morales would have beaten soto and khan is equal to Peterson.
