    I think he would have a chance at catching Thurman in exchanges and Thurman has been hurt to body and head by lesser guys than Garcia, but yeah I would favor Thurman based on his movement and speed.

    Garcia would lose to both right now.

    I'd rather see Porter and Thurman fight each other and have Garcia fight the likes of Guerrero.
    Guerrero is washed up and it is time for Danny to take on a top contender. Porter comes in all wild, he'd walk right into Danny's best shots and I don't think he could take them for 12. Thurman-Porter is a good fight, although Thurman should be able to take him. Porter is alright, but I think some people will overrate him based on his pedestrian win over the massively overrated Broner.

      I'll speak for him...'I want the easiest fight possible where I can make my million dolloars, push my clothing line, and support my lifestyle.' I prefer not too fight anyone difficult, but when Uncle Al demands I'll gladly do it. Garcia is a cherry picker - sorry.

      That being said, I think he beats Thurman and possibly Porter.

        Imo Porter will come in, and stay in. Garcia possibly/probably won't be able to hold him which means the fight takes place on Garcia's chest, just where Porter wants it.

        Imo Garcia won't be able to cut off the ring on Thurman, the latter's legs and movement are prime. He'll pop and move all night imo.

            Garcia would spark Porter with devastating hooks. Porter is begging to be countered with his wild swings. Thurman could outbox him, but if they trade it's a toss up on who goes down.

              I think that characterization is mostly accurate for Porter-Garcia, but I think Porter's wide, looping shots with bad defense will leave him wide open for Garcia's best shots. Garcia needs his feet set and is at his best when guys trade with him. I think it would be a rough and uncomfortable fight due to Porter's strength and awkwardness, but I just see Garcia landing killer counters all night. Porter has a tough chin, but I think he breaks down in a tough scrap.

              I agree on Thurman. Garcia's chances in that fight are down to catching Thurman during a combination and being able to finish him. In other words, a long shot.

              Would love to see either fight.

                  I'd be okay with that fight, but I like Porter/Thurman more. Danny has a lot of good potential fights at 147.
