    Maybe if he goes 12 rounds with Thurman.. but that won't happen.
    I think that Thurman's body would fail him before DSG chin.

      He's clearly got power. A rating of 7 is snubbing him. You know this.

        That term is really being thrown around loosely on here lately.

        Honestly for me its a complete toss up. I'd maybe lean more toward Thurman but that's more just cause he's done more at 147 and I question if Garcia's heart is still in the game.

        However I've always maintained that Garcia is the kinda guy who fights one level above his opponents so sometimes he looks bad against the opposition but always finds a way to win. He's like Bradley in the sense that he's amazing at nothing but great at everything.

          I would have gave him 8.5-9/10 if it were at 140 but it didn't seem like he could hurt either Gurrero and Peterson at welterweight

            Two B level fighters but hopefully Keith wins. At least he wants to fight good fights regularly.

              That's where I have him. 8.5
              Peterson was tough to hit that night and Guerrero is rugged so I'm not holding those against him. That said, I think his ko ability will drop off now that his timing is slipping because that's a big component of his power. Too early to say just yet but the Thurman fight will tell all. Danny tends to rise to the occasion so it'll be interesting.

                Two b-level, undefeated champions... Lol

                Keith has had his uncompelling matches and a recent layoff too so let's not pretend he's the angel here.

                  Come on, you know more about boxing then to judge fighters by their zeros. That's something casuals judge fighters on.

                  Neither are top shelf, a level talents. Good solid b level fighters.

                      Stop being dumb for a change. B-level does not equal bum. Neither fighter is an A-level fighter. Neither is likely to end up on a top 10 P4P list. Neither will be a HOFer. Neither will be an ATG.

                      They're nice solid B-level fighers. Not elite.

                      Ward-Kovalev, Lomachenko-Walters and GGG-Jacobs are all higher level fights taking place this year.
