But he also took some bombs from Mattyhsse and Thurman was hurt by Collazo. Not saying Garcia wins, I just think it's a toss up. Really good fight IMO and I hope it gets made. Agree with you on every other guy though. 147 gunna be tough on Garcia.
His day will come where the gift decisions end.. Honestly boxing is so underwhelming at this point in our society that they have to protect the fighters that make money or else the sport is dead... Garcia I honestly think you know that you're being protected which is ok but dude you're not that good.. I'm sorry.
I agree, which is mind puzzling because 1. Garica isn't that good and 2. He's not a big ticker seller/big ratings fighter. I don't understand, I think, or hope, Haymon will just feed Danny boy to the wolves at 147 soon.
He dropped the ball when he first knew he couldn't make 140, but didn't leverage the championship for a 147 title shot, or Broner type fight. Makes me doubt his confidence that he let time lapse on a precious money making asset. His bargaining power is sorely diminished by being an ex champ and the fact that he is fighting Paulie underscores his insecurity.
Garcia needs the right kind of fights, and I'm not sure he has what it takes at 147 either. I think he is a better fighter than a lot of people on here give him credit for, but 147 has some stiff competition.
