Comments Thread For: A. Peterson: Danny Garcia Admitted Defeat To Lamont

[Sweet Pea 50]

if we go on emotion and allegiance...We are ALL going to give our fighter the benefit of the doubt. Now, when we simply look that the compu box stats, It's Garcia who won the fight.

Landed 3 more punches total and 40 more power shots.


Lamont, you win the jab of the evening award.

Amazing.

I was very frustrated with Lamont Peterson's performance in the early rounds of the fight. His trainer said they planned it that way; to not give Danny a stationary target. But running around makes one look like a coward in the judges' eyes. Lamont is clearly a more talented fighter than the overrated Garcia, and he could have won that fight easily. He should have used movement without running, and actually fought Garcia the entire fight, instead of waiting until nearly the end to come on. Lesson learned.

Not sure Lamont wins "easy." When you run from Garcia for 6 rounds, come in at 165lbs, you just might fool some people into thinking you can win easy next time. The truth is, Lamont fought Danny for 6 rounds not 12. Lamont himself said that had he tried to engage Danny early, he could have gotten caught with a shot. Clearly, he was in survival mode most likely due to the trauma Lucas KO put in his head. His flaw was thinking he was a smooth elusive mastermind, with NO real offense in the first 6 rounds. Lamont, you played yourself.

Well I've got to disagree with Danny then because I had him winning by one point

It's understandable that he would think that he lost because he got beat up at the end and lost 4 of the last five rounds, but I gave him the majority of the opening rounds (body shots < unlanded jabs imo) and a few in the second half too.

Peterson lost the fight rather than Garcia winning it on my card

This right here.... Peterson shoulda did early in the fight what he did late in the fight... looks like garcia was starting to gas bad and then peterson runs around for like 2 mins of the next round. Peterson lost the fight, more so than garcia winning.

Pitty pats? You mean the ones that ****ed your idols face up? If you wanna say Danny won bc of the round scoring of boxing that's one thing, but if you jus looked at as a fight your boy got beat the **** up. If Danny truly landed more power shots, and Lamont looked like he did after the fight, then who had the pitty pat punches?

Peterson ran or Garcia had no resources to win?

Matthysse dealt with the same Peterson, But Matthysse knew How to close the gap, apply pressure and score with damaging Power. Then idiots call Matthysse a brawler. No one has lees resources than Garcia.Garcia did nothing to adapt or go and turn a disfavorable fight, peterson did, Still both are bums.But it was garcia who had nothing to beat Peterson.Lucas Counter jabbed, cut the ring and finish the job.What Garcia did?Cry and complainted that Peterson did not want to exchange????Idi otic, like his family.

Yes sir, when the emotions subside, there are always the stats.

So you score fights based on a fighter's skin and a fighter's tendency to swell etc? Truth is, it does not take more than a handful of landed punches to produce the marks on Danny's face. Recall, it took ONE shot to close Lucas eye up and fracture that skull.

A lot of Garcia's shots where to Lamonts body as a result of Lamont's movement. You don't score body shots ever?


I don't score fights like a dermatologist. I look at effective punches.
