Comments Thread For: Angel Garcia on Hererra: You Have To Beat The Champ

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

I had the fight a draw, same as many ringside scores. But hey. I think it was closer then it's being made out on here. But I can't see giving Danny more then 6 rounds. And 116-112 Danny......that's a joke.

Where are these ringside scores you speak of?

Newsflash angel. He did beat the champ!

[-PBP-]

And when you win 7 rounds you defeat the champ

[samouraï]

Um, he did.

So I guess in other news Angel isn't the ultimate beacon of truth anymore, like he used to fancy himself.

One of the dumbest cliches in boxing. You dont have to beat a champ anymore so than you do a non-champ

Somehow people think you get extra credit in a fight because you came in as the champ

Yea, I never really understood this way of thinking.

Just saw fight,garcia lost,,it wasnt a clear victory for herrera like 9-3 rounds, but i thought he won,

the reverse to that would be, if u are a champ u have to prove it by beating the opponent convincingly or lose your belt.

anything this is all bs, fights are scored on a round by round basis so this whole 'beat the champ' bs shouldnt matter

Thats what i was just thinking,the champ shouldnt have any kind of advantage going in,like u say,round by round,even if rounds are close they shouldnt go to champ just because hes the champ

No draw, I'll score it for Danny. His power punches sealed the deal. I absolutely think it was his worst outing and that its time for a world class trainer. Herrera boxed well but I agree that he didn't beat Danny. Every round was close with the exception of 11 (Garcia) and 12 (Herrera). Neither fighter definitively won the other rounds and id give the close rounds to the champ in or out of Puerto Rico.

Well so much for garcia "tearing that ass up " as he said at weigh in and herrera responding no you're not
