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

[millcitymauler]

Yall look at ko's I look at the fighters he's fought and how he made them respect his power, what dont yall understand it's hard to KO and drop top doggs and that's who Garcia been feasting on, are you gonna ignore him dropping a iron chinned fighter in Lucas who never touched the canvas. It's easy to look superhuman beating on bums like Matthysse, and fighting people 30 pounds smaller like Canelo. Garcia has made his recent opponents all get buzzed or at least taste the canvas from a counter puncher style ,all high level fighters, dont get blinded by his ko%

And JMM is not a elite counter puncher, he's a disguise boxer puncher, with great footwork. A elite counter puncher wouldn't get dropped 5 times by the same punch from the same fighter, not to mention the other 5 or so lefts that put him on his ass some by c class fighters, but I digress......

Restectable power, and elite knockout power are 2 different things - Danny has respectable power and scores knockdowns because of his great timing and precision. If he had elite power, he'd be puttin guys to sleep.
Don't get it twisted, I like Danny alot - he's one of my top 10 favorites to watch these days, but this topic is about how he stacks up to Floyd, and no matter how anyone wants to massage it, he gets whitewashed, and possibly KO'd.

I watched the fight like 10 times now and the only reason he was throwing jabs was to keep Floyd off of him while he was taking breathers, in one of the earlier rounds Floyd seen this after eating a nice jab, and instantly ripped off a quick body left hook, body right, and head left hook

Watch the look on the faces of his family members when they show them in the crowd.
No matter what anyone posts about a floyd fight, go watch the fight and watch the look on the faces of the family. Mr and Mrs Hatton, Shanes people, Mrs Ghost, Canelo Clan (including his brothers who all boxed professionally), ODH's fam, Cotto's wife.

When you love someone its hard to hide the truth sometimes.

Fuck me, for someone who is one of the greatest fighters easily of this era, Hopkins is so fucking ignorant. "African American this", "African American that", "Slick this", "Slick that", "Hurr hurr I'm from Philly" man GTFO with that garbage.

Lmfao!! I hate Hopkins' guts but I love the fact he's all over this Puerto Rican kid's nut sack. Oh the irony!

[Derranged]

the funny thing is had matthysse beaten danny this board would've been screaming for a floyd - matthysse fight

now danny beat him impressively but hardly anybody gives him a chance

irony for ya

Yea and that's because a number of the posters who support Matthysse also hate Floyd.

Not really sure why that is.

Anyway, neither of them would give Floyd much trouble.

Why should JR pick on a smaller man for an easy no risk fight

rather

than Pick on a bigger man , say GGG for his title and go for PRIDE GLORY and bragging rights ?

OH oh, sorry, I forgot, jr preys on the lame the old , the small and the wore out fights to pad his pocket, sorry.

what bragging rights do you get from beaing the 2nd or 3rd best MW in the world?

I think and believe that Danny Garcia is more than capable of beating any fighter from 140 to 147 except Floyd Mayweather.

[HAY-B]

what is pac doing? he's fighting a smaller man. pac hs feasted on folks past their prime (ODLH, Shane M.) Hell pac fought them after Floyd fought them. at least if Floyd and danny fight it will be champ against champ.so lets say Floyd suprises the world and fights ggg and Floyd wins, what will you hate him for next????? who will he have to beat???? I said it before and i'll say it again, if Floyd fought Jesus Christ and won, folks would still ate on Floyd and still won't give him his props.
I hope pac does not re-sign with top rank when this contract is up and him a Floyd fight so the world can see pac is not all that he's hyped up to be.

Danny gets gatti ed

its going to be hard for mayweather to make a match cause alot of his viewers are those who hate mayweather and want to see him lose and there is really nobody left besides martinez or pac man if he looks good against rios maybe bradley if it plays out right. but at some point in these 6 fights he is going to have to fight 1 or 2 fighters that are in the khan alexander garcia sector its impossible to avoid

I don't think people still believe Pacquiao is a challenge to Floyd but he is still a big money fight.
