    Harvey Dock is a super-middleweight?

      I am not a fan of either fighter. I also don't sit and score fights round by round I just watch the fight and in my minds eye Lamont won the fight. And it wasn't even all that close.

        I don't understand the hate, the fight was good and Danny probably should have lost but I am not mad at the decision. He is proven and has weathered every storm he came across, between Khan, Judah, Lucas, Peterson, and Morales, he has a very strong resume at 140 and owes no more to the division, he is clearly in the top five at that weight. He should move up and test the waters at 147. He is naturally strong and I think his strength will mean more at the higher weight classes.

        I want to see Lucas, go up as well as Broner, the new 147 class is going to be so exciting I can't wait. So many awesome match ups.

        Peterson, Broner, Matthysse, Garcia, Bradley, Khan......how can you not get excited about those fights!!!

          I think Garcia is lunch meat at '47.

          I think Spence knocks his **** in the dirt right now.

          He probably wins some moving up, but he will need to be matched pretty careful.

          If it sounds like I'm shitting on him, I'm not.

          He can't rely on his power at '47. Not against the best, and the upcoming talent.

            Interesting how the Garcia love has clearly clouded your objective viewing and reasoning. 9 rounds to 3? So you scored it even wider for Garcia than all the judges?

            Hmmmm. Thats a pretty convincing victory you've given Garcia there.

            While there are rational boxing fans stating 'no robbery' and 'close fight', I think this is the first post I've seen where someone thinks Garcia won it easily.

            Out of interest which 3 rounds did you give to Peterson?

            I think Peterson was hard done by not to win some early rounds. Sure Peterson was on his bike but what was Danny doing except missing?

              Garcia, Looked somewhat ordinary...
              Swift should get Haymon, to feed him more Cat's with Khan type Whiskers,
              to make him look good again...

                He should have jumped up and fought Floyd when he had the chance to.

                  Remember this, danny is DONE once he moves up to welterweight...D-O-N-E!

                  I'm sure haymon will try his best to protect him with ****ty opponents but he loses to may, pac, thurman, brook, maidana, bradley, and chaves and many more at that weight. Luckily for him he won't have to fight a REAL stable of fighters like i just mentioned.

                    Has everyone forgot the Mauricio Herrera fight? He didn't look too good in that fight either

                      His reputation took a MASSIVE hit. He looked like **** and was a beaten fighter. Just like Cotto when and if he ever fights a top ten MW or Canelo.
