Who can beat Danny Garcia?

I'd agree with that list, they all beat him. Garcia is a highly protected fighter, what's worse is that he and his father think this is a great thing.That can make 147lbs or even under.
I think:
Crawford
Spence
Thurman
Porter
Brook
Pac
Bradley
I would like to say Khan because he definitely has the skills to make Garcia look bad but his chin is what lets him down and is the only reason why I wouldn't favour him to win.
I just think it's pretty bad to see Garcia with a title because it's been nearly 3 years since he's actually had a proper win vs a truly ELITE fighter in his prime. I really don't want to see him fight Berto, who is honestly a gatekeeper for 147. He did well at 140lbs for a while beating Khan and Matthyse but got gifted a few too, namely Herrera and arguably Peterson.
I'm reading that he may face Thurman next year, why can't we have that fight this year? It will do HUGE numbers in a Post MayPac world.Comment

Ain't that the truth! Tim is really undervalued because people have seen him against his ******nite 3x. Tim is capable of great things but he has lapses where he just off the the path and has to be reminded to get back with the gameplan. That's why I think Atlas is great for him. If Tim can be disciplined enough to follow an Atlas gameplan of stick and move, I think he takes this slower version of Garcia. He would do what Lamont should have done but he was lazy in his offense. If he falters just for a moment though and gets in a firefight, it could end quickly. Danny still has great counters, though they're coming half a step slower than they used to.Last edited by Redd Foxx; 07-28-2016, 08:24 PM.Comment

Hes really the guy who plays to his opposition. He only looked vulnerable against Herrera, and then when Lamont started bullying the shi1t out of him. From rounds 8-12 Lamont ragged dolled him, no one ever did that to him prior.
I don't really count Morales 1 as Danny was learning on the job against a legend...Comment

I agree with you some. Danny is a mid range hooker with timing after he gets adjusted. Spence would smother and over whelm dc, thurman taxes his a$$, Crawford would win on pts, but I feel like he does have khans #.Comment

Very undervalued! when people talk best of this era and throwback fighters they should be talking about Tim. Hes a workout maniac which is rare for current day fighters, very few have his work ethic. Tim is one of the few that can change it up mid fight but you are right he dont like to stick to the gameplan which is his only vice. I think Tim could play games with Garcia if they fought and switch up his volume attack with some sticking and moving. I like Garcia to a certain extent but hes to stiff, Tim could definitely keep him off balance.Ain't that the truth! Tim is really undervalued because people have seen him against his ******nite 3x.

Garcia somehow finds a way to win. Sometimes it's gifted to him. But his so stiff and you look at his knockouts his head down throwing a hook. People say it's timing others have said it's luck. His luck has to run out at some point. Probably going to be fighting berto next. Everybody likes to trash berto but if he beats him what would that say about garcia.Comment

people keep underrating Danny Garcia
Danny Garcia is just over 5'8, just at 69" reach, can box a little bit off the backfoot/jab, is tougher than anyone wants to acknowledge, is one of the best catch/shoot and inside fighters in the division, and still walks into any fight with that left hook and a nice compliment of shots to set it up.
Garcia likely doesn't win every fight (i think Errol Spence Jr and Kell Brook give him hell), but he beats a lot more guys than folks want to acknowledge.Comment
I think Bradley has the ability to make it easy but it depends what Bradley we get.
I don't even know how to describe him right now
