BigJavi.... its not a bad fight.... cause technically Garcia is coming of a loss.... LMAO.. we all know he loss to Herrera.

i actually had garcia winning by a hair. To me, jabs alone wont do it cuz its not amateur competition. In herreras fight with provodnikov he actually landed and threw more power punches than what he did in the garcia fight.

Definitely a close fight... I wonder why him and more interesting why his dad hasn't called out Floyd Mayweather... hes the champ its a sellable fight.

How did you score Lara vs Canelo ?

If he fights Rubio now that he is a champion, that is like Pacquiao fighting Algieri and Danny Garcia fighting Rob Salsa.

How is that? Rubio is a top 10 ranked MW, simliar to Proksa, Geale, Macklin, and Stevens, these great wins GGG has.

Algieri is a 140 pound beltholder who is coming off the biggest win and best performance of his career. He isn't a great option, but TR has nothing for Manny with JMM not playing ball anymore. It sucks, but I get why it had to be done.

Danny Garcia fighting Rob Salsa is a disgrace. He's the LINEAL champ. That's like Cotto bringing up Julian Williams from JMW who has no real wins on his ledger. That's a valid comparison.

The one you made isn't.

I scored the canelo-lara fight 7-5 for lara. Yea he "ran" as people say, even though it was more sidestepping than running, but canelos body work was only good for 3 or 4 rounds. Other than that, he really didn't do anything. a 117 is a wide margin giving canelo 9 rounds. Wow. Even teddy atlas and countelss others had the same score i had. I think garcia is too green and that his dad has too much say so. I want garcia to fight L.peterson or broner, not salka.

I had it 7-5 for Lara watching it live.. but I haven't had a chance to watch it again to re-score it... yea Garcia def not ready for Floyd.. but who is.. but I think a Peterson fight... and even a Matthysse rematch would be better... wonder how long he is gonna stay at 40 as well..

I watched it again and had the same score. he said he wasnt gonna stay long at 140. But, fighters DO get a say so in what fighters they face. Al haymon is an "advisor", hes not a match maker cuz if he was, that would be illegal cuz he doesnt have a promotional license.

Yes I definitely agree.. that's why I never understood the whole Pacquiao its up to my promoter nonsense.. your promoter works for you.. not the other way around.
