Thx for the correction...I will edit...and i do think Peterson won that. Pretty handily, tbh.
So we will just forget the first 8 rounds of Peterson and his "boxing" he did. Garcia won a close fight. Peterson's strategy didn't work. At one point Lamont turned completely around and ran towards the ropes. WTF?!
I saw someone post in another thread that the Swift fans thinks he's a SPECIAL fighter....I been telling you Swift critics that he's blue collar and not blue chip...of course he has his flaws, of course he doesn't do anything GREAT....as a LOYAL Swift fan I know he's beatable and one day he will take a L...he won't retire undefeated....he'll NEVER be P4P top dog....but he's a LEGIT world champ because he TOOK the belts....no vacant ****, he beat other world champs for his straps
he's fought the BEST dudes in his weight class and have beaten them...a couple of decisions could've gone against him in fights that were close...but the judges scored those fights for him....that mixed with the fact that he's beaten a few fighters decisively that he wasn't supposed to has generated abnormal animosity from so called boxing fans
the kid is 30-0....he finds ways to win fights....he's a tough mutha****a with a sick left hook, a nice right hand and a elite chin....he's a GOOD fighter...not a special one!!....there's only a handful of SPECIAL fighters in the sport....Floyd, BHop, Pac, Ward and Marquez...everybody else is either, GOOD, AVERAGE or getting hyped up from KOing bums....if Swift fought Rod Salkas every fight then he would get praised like GGG....so GTFOH with that Swift bashing....some of you need to find a chill button...FOR REAL!!
That's a really nice way of saying Danny got lucky twice. And while Danny got the decision he didn't win against Herrera or Peterson
Handily? Ok... So what was your score for the fight after 8 rounds?
I had the fight in the neighborhood of 8 rounds to 4;
Lamont running around the first 3 or 4 rounds, potshotting and making Danny miss (mostly) and just generally hitting more than being hit (even though that's not my favorite kind of fight).
The next 5 or 6 were competitive and Danny probably won 3 or 4 of those, but in so doing, ran out of gas.
I didn't expect to see Peterson walking him down like that, and Danny's shots not affecting him. Peterson must have a better chin than Matthysse. Except he doesn't. Sometimes styles make fights.

Lamont looked like Pernell Whitaker in there damn!
Swift keeps you ******* up all night. Why is it that on NSBs you casuals lump fighters into only two categories, greats and bums? You casuals are a cancer to boxing fans
Imagine, he's not that good and KO'ed Khan and beat Matthysse. What does that say about them? What does that say about most pro boxers actually? What does that say about boxing? and Boxing fans? If Danny Garcia is ordinary, then so is our sport because this ordinary guy has beaten dudes you guys have hyped up to beat the best in the sport. Matthysse was supposed to KO Mayweather and Pacquiao before losing to Garcia. Khan is supposed to be stylistically tough for Mayweather, the #1 best fighter in the sport. DSG beat them both. So what does that say about boxing?
