    One Good or Bad fight

    What the hell is wrong with people. This happens every time, when a fighter wins he is the next Jesus Christ, when he loses he is the second coming of Charlie Zelenoff. We need to learn not every fight will be won or lost in the same fashion.

    Now to the Garcia vs Herrera fight.

    We knew( I expected Danny to do better) that Herrera is a spoiler, that he fights somewhat ugly and he is very tough. Most people thought he was going to be a tough style for Garcia and that he was going to make it close. The fight was hard to score a bunch of rounds could had gone either way. But most people tend to give an underdog more credit than he deserves do to the fact that he is the underdog. I think Danny edge out a fight he looked horrible, lethargic and Herrera fought great. Could a case be made for Herrera? Of course, easily you can see Herrera winning also. But we need to realize that styles makes fights. I bet you if Herrera fights Mathysse , Mathysse would KHTFO, because of styles and different attributes.


    That's how boxing goes!!

    I thought there was a good chance Huererra could spoil and make Danny look bad but box so well and in my estimation win handily reducing Danny to landing a power punch here and there every few rounds?

          tell this to floyd fans. they are the master of "look at this guys last fight" this is how you get fights like floyd-ortiz, floyd-baldomir, floyd-maidana. all it takes is 1 good fight and they will defend the choice for eternity. meanwhile if you are #1 for years and floyd doens't fight you they come up with a long convoluted timeline trying to justfiy why floyd wasn't able to fight certain guys.

            I would just say Garcia is very reliant on his left hook and that is a good punch but it is kind of an easy punch to mitigate, without a solid straight right which even if Garcia has he doesn't do a good job of using it in a way to keep guys honest for his left hook.

            It was why Zab gave him issues really and certainly Herrera, but his better wins Khan and Matthysse gave him openings for that punch.

            You are right everyone will beat Garcia until his next fight when he fights someone better but that doesn't or can't take away his left hook and he looks good again then he will be on top of the world.

              True that, but the hell with Floyd and his nuthuggers(not the real fans) hahahah

                I agree, but they are not going to agree with you. Danny is now a bum, end of, in their opinion.

                  I'm not a DSG fan by any means, but I thought Herrera CLEARLY beat him. Some rounds were close, but Herrera was great at maintaining the perfect distance throughout. He thoroughly outboxed Garcia tonight. It could've been the weight and possibly the pressure of performing in front of his people, but he was beaten to punch all night.

                    I'm a pound for pound top 10 Danny Garcia hater, so it's made me sick to my stomach that I've found myself defending the guy tonight. He has a bad night against a tricky style and now all if a sudden people think Paulie, Broner and whoever else can easily beat Garcia. It is as if the Matthysse and Khan fights never happened lol thats NSB for ya
