Danny Garcia vs Thurman @147

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

He might be you know. According to Naazim Richardson the fraud walks around at 170. He kills himself making 140 so he can feast on smaller guys.

Thurman as far as I know walks around at about 160-165. Contrary to popular belief, he's not that big a welterweight.

Gift is taller as well.

165 is at around 170 isnt it? :P

I dont think he's bigger. But if he is he wont have a big size advantage to help him absorb the punches as much. And how well will his power carry up? Keep in mind he hasnt KOed anyone of note with his so called power.

you see, its not always about who has he beaten. Who had algieri beat before beating provodnikov?

chris algeri doesnt deserve to share a ring with pacquiao , provo is over rated . People should be just as outraged with pac vs algeri just as they were with garcia vs salka . Pac should wipe the floor with this kid !

He's got decent power at 140 but nothing scary, at 147 where he belongs, I can't even see him hurting the top guys let alone KOing them. I don't think he can beat anyone in the top 10 at 147.

You're following the wrong sport, I think something like horse racing would be the perfect sport for you.

Algieri is a champ and top 5 at 140. Vodka is ranked #77 at lightweight. There's no comparison.

Lol we've never seen garcia at 147 so i can't say. Though one thing Ii can say is this thread and all the opinions sound alot like it did last September when everyone el was saying how matthysse would decapitate garcia in 3 rounds.

Big guy with speed and a shaky chin who leaves openings sounds more like amir con to me.

the fact that pac is supposed to be this atg future hof and fighter of the decade and hes fighting chris algeri is a god dam joke and everyone knows it ! I bet if it was floyd vs algeri you would be running your mouth about floyd . Even funnier that people are comparing a danny garcia fight to pac fight . Shows what standards pple have for pac. Did pac make chris algeri come up in weight ?!? Seeing as how pple say danny made salka come up in weight . This double standard **** has to stop !

sorry i dont remember saying i support this fight . Garcia vs salka was a joke , so is pac vs algeri . What im saying is stop blaming the fighters ! Blame al haymon goldenboy and bob arum for making these **** fights!

I'm going with Thurman but it's a very winnable fight for Garcia. Garcia is a far better counter puncher than Chaves who managed to successfully counter Thurman at times. It's when Thurman goes into full assault mode that Garcia can catch him, that said Thurman's defense is underrated and many fail to see that he's actually defending when he's on the attack. I've seen Thurman minimize the effects of incoming counters as he's lunging in, even doing so off balance.
