Comments Thread For: Hopkins: Garcia Can Adapt To Mayweather's Style

[619 southpaw]

Preach! I'm not saying Danny can beat Floyd, but Danny's best attribute is his timing. Timing beats speed every time and he proved it with Khan. It wouldn't surprise me if he timed Floyd and iced him. Speed is irrelevant, Just about everyone credible Danny has beat was faster than him.

danny's timing is great but floyds is great with the speed to go with it. I think its a total mismatch, having said that danny by far is the most deserving fighter to get the fight, more deserving than Ortiz, ghost, and canelo imo

mayweather will school danny garcia dnt put him in there with floyd DONT! bernard hopkins is just loving garcias **** every moment his speaking out of his ass!

i think danny has a better chance than lucas, dude actually showed skill. tho his chances are still relegated to a punchers chance.

Danny Had so much trouble with Zab barely even scoring with his left hook if at all any. I could see Danny getting stop this fight ,his punches are way too wide to fight Floyd and not enough ring intellect.

zab, although past his best days, is an excellent boxer and his boxing ability has gotten better as he has aged, he switched up his style to serve himself better and now instead of relying on "fighting" his opponents, he "boxes" his opponents, very well if i may add

lets not forget zab gave mayweather some trouble....dont hold it against danny if he struggled against zab, thats nothing to be ashamed of, plus, he still convincingly won

that being said, hopkins is so biased cuz danny's from philly, it almost makes me laugh, him saying he can adapt to the floyd style

hopkins forgot to mention, u dont adapt to floyd, floyd adapts to you

floyd is so versatile that you need to prepare for multiple floyds, so u prepare for one, he's gonna come out with another, and he's gonna adapt to whatever u prepared for

garcia needs plan A-Z in order to win

Let the hype begin! There is really no one out there for Floyd under 150. I'd rather Floyd just wait until September and let Garcia face the winner of Khan-Alexander I suspect that Money's PPV buys will drop significantly from here on out and that will be his last 40+ million payday.. Unless he loses or fights Pacquiao or maybe a rematch with Canelo in 2 years..

Mayweather and Garcia need opponents that like to come forward and apply pressure so a fight b/t the two would be more of a chess-match unless Floyd gets bored and loses focus. The tours/press conference/all access would be very entertaining though.

I'd hate seeing a Mayweather/Alexander fight but I think Alexander gives him hell for a few rounds. Devon has grown into a full-fleged welterweight and he has decent hand and foot speed to give Mayweather some work in addition to his southpaw stance. Again probably an ugly fight but only a fighter with quick hands and feet is beating Mayweather.

As much as I can't see that happening, can you imagine if Danny beat Floyd Mayweather Jr.? Holy hell, Angel's head would explode right there in the ring.

That's my only worry.

Angel has power that no one else said.

That said, I can tell that God has yet to confirm to Angel if Danny would beat Mayweather. You can tell by the way he talks about the fight.

[MDPopescu]

I doubt it. The only person I can see adjusting well against Floyd is Tim Bradley.

I said it here one month ago. Bradley is devilish...

[Juan,000,000]

One thing for sure Danny wud give alot better fight than canelo.

[Interloper]

Hope Danny avoids this fight unless he wants the payday. Aside from the great money he stands to make, he doesn't beat Floyd. I'm hoping they'll go another route and keep building his legacy, rather than his purse.

[sugarsmosley]

It's getting ridiculous now.

Any fight fan with an IQ of 7 knows Hopkins is talking out his rear end.


They should just have one statement for every mayweather fight, so they don't have to make up a new story

"_____ can adapt to mayweather's style"

"_____ has the blueprint!"

"_____ is going to go to the body and beat him down!"
