Dan Rafael on Garcia/Matthysse

[PUK_MY_DANG_34]

Don't know if this was already mentioned. Also not sure that it means very much, but here it is.

Spoke to Richard Schaefer tonight. He mentioned several fights he hopes to make, but top of list wants to wrap up Garcia-Matthysse this week

I think the date they were trying to stage these 2 was the week before the Floyd-Canelo fight. Who knows, maybe Maidana vs winner of Paulie-Broner too.

I just hope it gets made, not even worried about the date. Seems like it should have been signed a couple of weeks ago.

So? We all know the fight is in works, we all know the fight would happen, it's just morons on here that are screaming like the fight would be ducked.. "Oh why are they sealing Khan-Alexander" " Why isn't Garcia's dad talking" " why blah blah blah" calm the **** down and be patient and wait for the announcement..

Ok? And if you check my post history you'll see that I wasn't one of those people. I just thought I'd share a bit of seemingly positive news that I stumbled upon but hadn't seen posted here yet.

I trust it will get made....now if we were talking about TOP RANK....then thats a different story. We dont know what we are going to get with Bob.

I think all the speculation is arising because everyone's dying from anticipation.

This is the fight I'm most looking forward to this year.

damn, he was just giving us an update on the fight. We may be hearing something within a week or so. I pay no attention to most of the clowns that come hear hating. This is a good legit post for those of us waiting for this fight to get made so we can go purchase tickets!

Same here, but damn if I'm not curious about how Bradley/Marquez is going to go down. That's a close number two for me, despite the perception that it might be lacking in fireworks.

I will not believe it until I see it in the ring. I really believe they're saving Garcia to be Mayweather's next opponent.
