      Garcia would get eaten alive by big welters Brook and Thurman he was in deep late on with Peterson who looked the stronger bigger man and a one stage looked like he might even stop him.Garcia looked frustrated and could not pin Peterson down and ended the fight with his face a mess , Peterson was unmarked.

        Danny was doing great when he was the plucky underdog who kept surprising the bigger names. As the "guy", he isn't doing as well.

          He's the champion at 140 yet can no longer make the weight lol what a joke. Him not moving up and asking for catchweights is very telling, they know he's gonna get wiped at welterweight.

            definitely stay at 140, your the top guy at that division, who knows, maybe someone gets desperate and comes down to 140 and he gets the upperhand in the match up. Guys at 147 are licking their chops to get a shot at Danny because he's a big name, and they know his power won't transition well after his last couple outings.

                  He knows he will find it hard against the bigger guys at 147, yet he's finding it hard to make 140.

                  If he wants to face guys at around 144..that's fine as long as he gives up his belts. You get the impression that Haymon and PBC don't really care that much about titles. So stick Garcia on PBC cards fighting no names at catch-weight, while the likes of Lucas and Postol fight for the 140 title.

                  His stock will drop fast, but that's on him if he doesn't make the move up to 147.

                    All of a sudden he is a small guy?

                    Even Angel has said he is a big strong guy. He is 5 9, rehadydrates to what, 160?

                    He cant make 14 because he is too big. He is big enough for 147 just not good enough
