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

[liverkiller]

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

Post of the day, right here...

Garcia is hittable. A guy that is hittable can't beat Floyd. He will get tagged and punch air the entire night. He has a rock solid chin so he will last the full 12 but only win 2-3 rounds.

I hate to say it but Garcia is tailor made for Mayweather. Garcia has just enough flaws to exploit and Mayweather would see those wide looping shots coming before Garcia even thought of throwing them. Angel would come up with a good game plan but I don't know if he would be able to come up with back up plans. Matthysse, Judah, and Khan were winnable fights for Garcia. Mayweather is on another level.

I like this fight. I think Danny can and will do better than both Canelo and Guerrero and I also think Danny deserves it. He's fought a lot of tough people and won. Give him his payday! Who the hell else is Floyd gonna fight??

You guys are dumb. True idiots that fall for everything. Hopkins still works for golden boy. He is already prepping and hyping the inevitable bout between Mayweather vs Garcia. They already know that its going to be hard to sell anyone vs mayeather in and around his weight so they have to start now with the promotion. They have to start building the fighters and get people talking about the fight. Just like they did with canelo years ago.

If you choose to limit the definition of whipped, be my guest. The reason Canelo resorted to boxing is because he didn't want to get hurt or KO'd. Thats become standard for all Mayweather opponents-they stop throwing and the fans blame floyd.

Who is the more ruthless killer- the guy who chops your head off or the guy that gets you to chop your own head off?

Nope. Canelo fights flat-footed and would be huffing and puffing if he tried to "catch" Floyd. Don't believe me? Go check out the Trout fight. He fought a similar fight. Was it because he didn't want to get hurt by Trout? No!

Danny gets picked apart

[ADP02]

Danny had a chance against Lucas because style wise Lucas is the right kind of fighter for Danny. An opponent that comes in and is there to be countered. The only thing that made Lucas the favorite was his KO power.

Danny is a counter puncher. Floyd does NOT fight like Lucas.

Floyd likes to throw a punch at a time (with speed) and then gets out of range. Floyd doesn't throw a 3 punch combo like Khan and poses with his chin out for his opponent to hit.

Danny hopes that eventually his opponent will commit a mistake and Danny will make him pay for it. Unfortunately, Floyd will not be a willing participant and consequently Danny will be a fish out of water. Danny doesn't have the speed but he knows how to time his punches well.

Also remember that Danny is currently doing his work at 140 not 147.
