      Reason why Danny gets a lot of heat nowadays? The manner in which Garcia usually fights his opponents by hugging them to death. Just watch Lucas vs Danny, to much holding and excessive clinching from Danny. Tired of seeing these wrestling contests, came to see boxing.

        Stop it. That's ridiculous. You must not have been paying attention to Matthysse/Provodnikov. Matthysse clinched a ton in that fight. It's funny how you complain about holding when Matthysse is the one being clinched but overlook when he is doing the clinching.

          Bread captions his writings his "Mailbag." So I believe what one needs to be able to reach/write to him, is his email address. Fortunately, Bread includes his email address in each of his posts.

          I suspect, though, that Bread normally would get tons of email messages and what he does is to have to focus on a representative few in each of his posts, each of which is already relatively substantial in length.

          A great service/job 'Breadman' Edwards is doing indeed.

              The difference is, Danny would intentionally hold Lucas during their fight whenever Lucas closed the distance and got in close. Lucas, on the other hand, was forced to hold Ruslan because he getting was hurt badly and almost got knocked out.

                No, Lucas was holding when Ruslan closed the distance as well. It wasn't just when he was hurt. Ruslan can only fight at close range. Lucas used clinching to neutralize a large part of Ruslan's attack. There actually is no difference. You are criticizing a fighter you don't like for holding and then making excuses for the fighter you do like.

                    Not really, Mares was the betting favorite 2-1 when odds came out. But the betting favorite became Cruz when all the money that was coming in picked him to win.
