Comments Thread For: Garcia vs. Malignaggi Finalized For 8/1 At Barclays

[IronDanHamza]

because that would be one of the easiest fights of Floyd's career

12-0 shutout

So?

Exactly why it would make sense.

He doesn't want a hard fight for his last fight, Garcia's undefeated, has a good resume, decent following.

Makes perfect sense.

Postol was about to fold him up like an accordion. I guess we know why they call him swift. He ran as fast as he could to go fight Paulie.

lmaoo he beat Peterson easy you don't win a fight by running and winning 4 rounds and paulie beat broner and got robbed plus its his first fight at welter dummy to see how he feels at the weight after this he can fight the ghost porter khan

I agree Garcia clearly beat Peterson, but Pauli malinaggi? Come on man this guy hasn't done jack squat in the WW division

Paulie is a big boy? This fight is awful. The only plus is that it keeps Paulie from commentating for a little while. If we're lucky, Gift wires his jaw shut for an extended vacation.

Sorry I meant he can go for the big boys after this fight.

In no shape or form is Pauli a big boy lol.

Pretty good fight. I have no problem with it and also think Paulie has a shot. There's been talk of him looking real sharp in the gym.

If he would had fought Postol and beat him then the opinion switches to that he wasn't no good in the first place.

After what happened with Peterson they are going to move up very cautiously

[alexguiness]

Danny needs to step up, Peterson was a step in the right direction.

But now fighting the Guido Prince just gives his haters more fuel...

I was kind of hoping Paulie would hang them up.

Premier Boxing Chumps would be a fitting title for this card. Malignaggi is just in it for the payday and I can't begrudge him for that, but the last time Garcia looked good in a competitive fight was Matthysse in 2013... ffs.

[gamefrk]

I just don't understand why Mayweather-Garcia wasn't pursued.

Because it's common sense that you don't face the best 147lber for your first fight at that weight. And this is Danny Garcia we're talking about, not some journeyman who would move up/down in weight for big money bouts.

His last couple of fights have been at WW anyway.
