        The majority believe Herrera won, including the entire Showtime staff. Herrera basically put on a prime Dempsey like clinic and Garcia was dumbfounded.

              Garcia - Herrera
              rd1: 10 9 (close round, felt danny edged it though)
              rd2: 10 9 (easy to score)
              rd3: 10 9 (easy to score)
              rd4: 9 10 (very hard to score, just gave it to herrera, maybe out of pity)
              rd5: 10 10 (can't make my mind up, think more judges should score even rd's, instead of picking a random recipient)
              rd6: 10 9 (close round, felt herrera edged it)
              rd7: 9 10 (very close, very slightly favoring herrera, maybe?)
              rd8: 10 10 OR 10 9 (very close, felt it was either a draw, or very slightly favoring garcia)
              rd9: 9 10 (herrera's round)
              rd10: 10 9 (close round, gave it to garcia)
              rd11: 9 10 (close round, felt herrera edged it)
              rd12: 9 10 (herrera round)

              damn, i wanted to go more indepth about what happened in each rd but i can't remember, just copying the score i put my notepad


              so draw or herrera losing

                No, lets be real here Herrera won. Maybe danny had a bad night or whatever but I don't see how you can make an argument for Garcia

                  He is human.Danny seems to fight to the level of his competition. He has had a good run and is used to the role of being the underdog expected to lose. I feel he is having problems making the weight and the fight with Matthysse may have taken a lot out of him and he had to really get up for that and knew it going into the fight.
                  Herrera was meant to be an easy fight with the added pressure and expectation of fighting in Pueto Rico for the first time. This is not a role he is used to and Herrera really went for his chance and made him look bad. This experience may work for Danny moving him back to his underdog role with something to prove. Don't count him out just yet.

                    Amir Khan and Matthysse?

                    Things happen man, styles make fights. This kid wasn't a good match-up for swifty, but he'll bounce back with a solid performance.
