It's a pointless mismatch. Garcia should be fighting a top 10 guy like Postol. Of the available options, he's the best. Ideally, he'd be fighting Provodnikov but Provonikov fights on HBO and Top Rank has an option on him.
I agree it's pointless but I don't think a fight with Postol is any better. He might be ranked highly by the wbc, but what does that mean really. His best wins are against Corley and Lundy. Herrera showed he could at least give Provodnikov and Alvarado tough fights.

Agreed.
Herreras not a bad fight, but takes away if he only fights 2 times this year.
After this I hope rematch with Matthysse or unification with Pederson/Jean
Last I heard, people on the island dont support him. And that was said on here by people FROM the island.

I know ppl from the island and they support him. I know ppl born in the island that live in the states that support him too. If there's some that dont, ****'em! Lol
I have a question, when does somebody become American??
African-American, Italian-American, etc. When do these races become JUST American????
In one of my college courses an "African-American" didn't even know where Africa is on the mapa, how are you still classified as "African American"??
Your born in America, Your American!! Get over it!! Your No different then the people who "discovered" America.
Stop being posers don't cling to a culture that's not yours.
I'm Cherokee Native American, Anybody that lives in America is a white boy!
Want to be Italian-American well then move to Italy poser! It's not hate it's the truth
Puerto Rican Parade in Philly is DUMB!
Hey let's go have an American Parade in Austrailia!!
Back to the topic The Herrera fight ain't a bad fight, want to see him more active though
You can't compare Latinos and black people. Most African Americans parents aren't African born, they don't talk any African languages, they don't listen to African music. They don't root for any of the African World Cup soccer teams. Never been to an African country. Most Latinos are more In tuned with the culture and do all that I mentioned. They also don't deny being American, just ppl think they do because they strongly acknowledge being Latino.
Even after he fought Lucas ppl still calling my son Danny a coward. Smh those guys you mentioned are all coming off of loses too. Lol let swift move at his pace. Alexander just got worked, Guerrero is having promotional issues and Ortiz??? Danny would fold that ***** ass mother ****er.
i mentioned these name because he wants to take easy fight,I mean he atleast fight these fighters ,but he is coward.
In his next fight after Herrera, he could fight the winner of Peterson Jean.
That is what i want to see,,, If he aint gonna jump up for a floyd fight this year, then clear out 140 by fighting jean/pete winner,, and maybe lucas rematch in the fall,, Then pauli or someone like at 147 that in january and garcia would be in good shape for a floyd fight in may of 2015
The ardent and intelligent boxing aficionados on the island that comprise the market will get an opportunity to see first-hand how real their Boriqua son is and definitely jump on board. It’s an extremely astute market that will see Swift’s infinite potential. Great idea by GB, and I don’t have any issue with the opponent.
the matthysse fight wasn't easy. he took some very hard punches in victory. you don't want to string hard fights together if you're a young man and can avoid it.
this is an easy fight, but harrera isn't a total can. fighting in PR is obviously good to bolster his image among puerto ricans.
harrera isn't all that relevant, but he's not a bad fighter. he did beat ruslan provodnikov in early '11, if any of you care to recall.
he's a light puncher who moves well. he's got a good chin, and has never been stopped. expect him to finish the fight and lose.
He also had a good fight with Alvarado. They traded some good shots.
