    If he can move up without losing any speed he will be fine.

      I don't think so. He is already stiff up top and with the weight added to go to welter I think he will be a Froch. Solid power slow as
      A turtle and small at welter. I think paulie out boxes him . At welter Danny needs to be able to outbox guys . He isn't stopping anyone

        Dude you can't seriously have just compared Froch to Garcia.

        Paulie wouldn't outbox Garcia.

          He'll carry his power I think.

          He seems to be punching harder every fight.

            Garcia is a good boxer, and that's all he needs, maybe his chin will be less durable at the weight but if it can hold up I believe he will still be able to KO the likes of Broner, Ortiz and some others aswell.

              I think he would carry his power up to WW. I would like to see Swift fight Paulie or the Ghost at 147 or maybe even a Khan rematch would be cool.

                Better power than Broner, that's for sure.

                  He won't be as powerful, but I think he'll still be a very hard puncher. That left hook is mean.

                    I think he could max out at Marquez level in terms of ring IQ. Smarter than Malignaggi. Collazo I'm not too familiar with even though I picked him to whoop Ortiz d-list celebrity playing azz.

                    He's definitely durable enough to take the power of those guys. Trading with them as a tactic would be foolish given the fact that Garcia is multi-faceted enough to have other options.

                    Rios gets outclassed.

                    Garcia beats up Ruslan.

                    Maidana is too vulnerable to bodyshots, and Garcia is a good bodypuncher. Even though I picked Maidana to upset Broner, his rebirth in the 147 division has largely been smoke and mirrors. Karass, Lopez, and Broner were good fighters but by no means elite. Broner especially was an overrated hype job. Someone with the craft of Garcia would be too much for the crude Maidana

                    I'd pick D Garcia to outbox Thurman.

                    See the Ashley Theophane fight. It's why I say Floyd and Timmeh would school him. Guys who are proficient at stick-n-move will exploit Garcia's flat footed-ness and give him hell. This is coming from a die hard fan.
