    Umm..

    You can still have "hype" and work hard.

    This isn't like a one thing or another type deal. There can be both.

      Lucas and Canelo are not hype jobs.

        He was still in the fight, protecting the eye Danny thrashed. Whats your point?

          it would be overrating the win if mathysse was garbage. he isn't. also, why do people keep bringing up the eye issue like getting punched in the face isn't supposed to happen in boxing? ya'll are grasping at straws and it isn't funny. its sad.

              The point is after that Lucas was at a huge disadvantage at the time he was coming on strong. Those last 6 rounds would have been at the least a lot closer. Garcia also fought one of the dirtiest fights you'll see, deliberately targeting the nuts in every round. He won but it wasn't a boxing masterclass people are making it out to be.

                whilst it is true Lucas was at huge disadvantage, what do you expect Danny to do? Logically the best thing he can do is capitalise on that, and if it is caused from a punch he landed then he should get all the credit, Lucas' corner should have got the enswell out sooner and acted on it.

                    I was actually very surprised by his boxing skills.
                    I previously remembered him as a patient spamming left hook counter puncher but he showed great footwork and great defense. He even countered one of the heaviest punchers p4p.

                    Great peformance

                    never count anyone out

                    I still had it quite close but a clear win for Garcia

                      Couldn't have said it better myself, he does and has proved his worth and more than deserves a shot at Mayweather.
