Comments Thread For: Lamont Peterson : Did My Part, I Won't Call it a Robbery

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Danny Garcia remains undefeated after beating Lamont Peterson on Saturday night.

But the non-title catchweight bout in Brooklyn, New York, was as close as the WBC and WBA “super” super-lightweight champion had come to losing in his 30-fight professional career.

Two judges scored it 115-113 and the third made it a draw at 114-114 to give Garcia a majority-decision victory that he probably deserved.

Peterson, who held the now vacant IBF junior super-lightweight belt and is a former WBA “super” champion, finished strongly after Garcia had made a profitable start.

The result took Garcia’s record to 30-0, including 17 wins inside the distance. Peterson’s fell to 33-3, with one draw and 17 knockouts.

The 27-year-old Garcia, from Philadelphia, capitalised on his ability to beat most opponents to the punch as his 31-year-old opponent struggled to score enough points in the first half of the fight.

Wasn't a robbery. I don't know why Peterson was running early. Seems to me he was able to walk through everything Garcia threw, even early. It was like man vs child, but Garcia banked enough rounds early to make it a win for him, or close. It wasn't like Lamont won by 9-3,or 8-4 type fight. It was a close fight. I wouldn't have minded the nod going either way.

Peterson just kept himself relevant with that performance.

LP has nothing but class.

He could have *****ed, & moaned about the loss.
He took the high road.
LP also knows Garcia will not grant him a rematch....
Why would he??
If you were him would you want to be embarrassed again??

Did his part by not calling it a robbery?

why doesnt pbc show punch stats?

[jas]

"It was a robbery doe"

Look at the punch stats clowns

They ain't the be and end all but they show it wasn't a robbery
Look at the RBR punch stats and then proceed to feel like an idiot for calling it a robbery

You don't get points for running and making other guy miss of you don't do **** yourself

Danny was actually clearly out landing Pederson in the early rounds

The hate Danny gets is real

Either that or some of you have no idea what you're watching

peterson is just being classy here. he completely outclassed danny in every way. still baffled about the outcome... garcia basically won it by shadowboxing and getting his ass handed to him.
