****** Garcia's demand to Fight Lucas: "Move to USA!"

[Southpawology]

Boxers are ****ing ******* nowadays with these BS demands

[Rome-By-Ko]

No that's how duckers act. Next Garcia will want Lucas to only train in a McDonald's parking lot because he loves Big Macs. This is ridiculous, how do people defend this BS I don't know

See's joke and more ****** kiddie thinking..What Garcia is asking for is not unreasonable..What your suggesting is dumb and Garcia's team would never ask for..So bringing it up or mentioning it was a complete waste of time..

You my boy BO,but we have a different view of these kinda things..Everything does not have to be a duck..If Garcia wants extra testing(for what ever reason)it's his right..Now Matt's should counter,I want more money for these extra test you wanna put in..This is how adults act,not say,oh he's ducking..It's Matt's team's job now to counter..They know what Danny wants,and tbh it's not unreasonable..Let's hear a counter..

Matthysse isn't saying no to testing, and that's not the issue at all.

The issue is forcing Matthysse to have training camp in the United States to comply with the testing, when it isn't at all necessary. He can have all the testing the Garcias want in Argentina. If Garcia insists on testing that can only take place in the United States, and the fight doesn't happen because of it, that's a duck.

I can't agree with that..This is why I said,we have different views..I'm not the best at knowing the in's and out's of this whole testing business..I just feel if Garcia wants extra testing,it's his right..If the testing he wants only does their testing in the US,well those are his terms..Make a counter offer..Saying oh we can't train in the US is a bit suspect imo..What the fucck are they doing over there that they can't do here??

bottom line is, if Lucas actually wanted to fight Garcia, he wouldn't give a damn about where he trained for the fight. He has no wife and doesn't live with his daughter in Argintenia, plus he's a loner, so what is keeping him there? There is no legit reason for him ducking USADA. Period.

There's no testing that can be done in the US that can't be done in Argentina.

It's the logistics behind Matthysse moving his trainer and his sparring partners and his family and all that where a major problem could occur that makes this an unfair demand on Garcia's part. Lucas just dealt with this in his last fight when his passport was destroyed and he had to come in far later than usual. There's no telling the potential problems that could come with Matthysse setting up a training camp in the US. We see them all the time with fighters who come from elsewhere to fight in the US, let alone ones that have to train here. **** happens a lot.

Garcia is not a big enough star to demand such a thing. Mayweather would be, but Danny is not. It's totally unfair.

[bojangles1987]

Matthysse probably will agree to this, or at least have some compromise where he spends part of training camp in the United States. That won't make it fair, though.

you still on that bro

Maybe he likes to be close to his family and friends when hes in training? Or maybe he likes the environment in his own country. Lucas should counter danny and say he cant train in philly, **** the way things are going danny wont be able to walk in philly anymore.

This^^^^^ I'm actually giving Garcia the benefit of the doubt here. Matts should just call is bluff. If he doesn't, then it does seem like there's a little smoke.

It's no different than fear of needles, superstitions, or cutoffs.

Matthysse doesn't live in the US and has nowhere to stay. Garcia knows what he's doing and he's setting up roadblocks. Where the hell is Lucas gonna stay and who's gonna pay for it?
