Damn, they're still whining, lmao???
When the Matthysses fans were counting Danny's low blows, were they also counting the rabbit punches that he threw also?

There's a reason why Danny himself looked shook and is avoiding this fight as much as he can. He knows he needs a miracle not to get murdered if he fights Matthysse, let alone win that fight.
His going against Matthysse at his best: Power to destroy class A opponent with either hand, even wih poorly landed shots. Boxing skills, good footwork, clever strategy, iron chin and scary cofidence. Danny lacks in all of these, and has reamined "undefeated" thanks to an average resistance, a good left hook, but most of all, careful opponent selection. Even then he has struggled against the likes of Khan and Judah.
I'm not saying Danny cant win, I'm saying he sees it as clearly as most of us do, that its very unlikely that he'll avoid getting KOed.

you're really doing yourself a disservice separating yourself from "business" in boxing.
you work, right?
do you do it for money?
if you ahd hte opportunity to do it for more money, would you?
now what it you got punched for a living, and risked your life and career every time you fought? what if your career was only a few years long?
would you fight for more money, or just "some money?"
would you fight to please somebody you don't even know (you,) or your own family?
you can chose to be naive if you want. taking it personally when boxers fight for money is absurd. they all fight for money. every single one of them.

Khan/Garcia is a cherrypick, worthless fight and the 'business" side of boxing cannot and will not change that. You can defend it if you want. I'll call it what it is.
there is no side to boxing other than "the business side."
do you really think these guys care about proving anythign to you or me? they fight for money. you can stay ignorant if you'd like.
garcia just took on the toughest fighter in his division and won. he did it on an undercard, and took less money. it looks like they're positioning him to fight floyd mayweather, and make several million dollars in one night.
if you want to watch fights that don't involve money, and fighters that are not financially motivated, watch amateur boxing, or a fight at your local bar.
watching pro boxing, and ceaselessly complaining about fighters who box for money, is naive.
