Garcia vs Peterson at catch weight non unification fight !

[Dirk Diggler UK]

This fight just crossed the line into completely pointless.

Haymon is a crook who deserves to have his family beaten and ****d in front of him. This is a disgrace. A huge F U to all boxing fans.

[Ivansmamma]

So much for the name:

Premier Boxing Champions

Should change it to: Cherry Picking Over Paid Chumps

Haymon's finest

Well they are champions only not fighting a championship fight.

Thurman hasent fought a single top fighter. Maidana has beat good fighters and been competetive against top oposition. Thurman needs to prove himself, he cant be graded on potential.

Khan is a talented fighter with a weak chin and low boxing IQ. He beat Maidana but he went through hell to do it. Bradley might be better then Maidana but he aint levels above him, Maidana is better then provo who gave bradley a great fight.

Porter and Maidana might go either way and Marquez is my favourite fighter but Maidana might beat him if they fight right now ( 2 years ago he would destroy Maidana).

Maidana is a top five welter right now.

Chaves is a good fighter.

What good fighters has Maidana beat? Please don't say Broner, he's **** average and jumped up two weight classes to fight Maidana. Other than that, he's beat Karass, Lopez and Ortiz, they're not any better than the guys Thurman has beat.

Khan went through hell for 1 round. Maidana won a couple of other rounds without dominating. Bradley fought with emotion against Provodnikov. Maidana would only beat Marquez if Marquez is shot.

Maidana is not even close to being a top 5 welterweight. He's barely in the top 10.

Danny can't make 140..

Broner was a good (not great) win. Ortiz was a good win at the time. Maidana put up a good fight against khan and against floyd "the best ever".

Guess we will se next time he fights if he's "barely in the top ten" actions speak louder then words...

Exactly how I feel. I don't really care for this fight now.

Both fighters should be stripped if that's the case

[Cobra_]

Not much interest now. PEDerson I bet stays at 140 so he can probably the most blatant example of a paper champion I've ever seen. He would have lost twice (Garcia/Lucas) dodgy SD decision to Khan, and should have been stripped in the first place.

In regards to Garciathat's not unprecedented. Roberto Duran did the same thing when he was the lightweight champion. Garcia will move up eventually and has plenty of time to do it.

No, Duran had far more fights under the LW limit than above it since he came up from a lower weight. Most of Danny Garcia's career has been fought at the WW because he's been trying to boil down yet has only managed it 9 out of 29 times. It's clear what he's doing, never mind moving up, he should have been fighting at WW from the start.

The last mandatory Garcia fought was in 2013, since then he has fought Mauricio Herrera receiving a gift decision, came overweight v a career lightweight in Salka, paid Postol step-side money not to fight and now fights a fraud champion Peterson at a catchweight in a fake unification fight that isn't - all while holding two title belts.
