    i don't think thurman hits that much harder than garcia, if at all. danny can punch, and he fights that way. keith thurman looks like he's ready to step to the sides at all times, including while he's throwing combinations, which to me indicates that he's not putting a ton of emphasis on how hard he's punching. punchers commit. and i think it's that kind of mentality that wins thurman this fight on points, and easily. he moves too well.


    thurman will win this fight with his feet. danny gets a bit lost at sea when he can't set his feet.

      If Guerrero can beat up Garcia like that then Thurman is absolutely going to destroy him. Thurman was able to keep Porter off of him at vital times during their fight.

      Thurman ko 7

        Who Hasn't knockout Khan? Maidana hasn't, Zab hasn't, Devon Alexander hasn't, Peterson hasn't, Dimitry Salita hasn't, Julio Diaz & Carlos Molina hasn't as well.

          They're both high level enough that I won't predict a ko, but I expect Keith to take this one handily.

          BTW, Garcia has true 1punch ko power and you're giving him a 7 on power?
          A few things on Danny's power. His left hook is seriously nasty and if he lands it clean chances are you are tasting canvas. Problem is that seems to be the only punch he can really do the big damage with. The kid has less than a 60% ko ratio, he does'nt have ko power in both hands, and the one shot he can hurt you with he has to load up with it. In all honesty a 7 is about right imo because if you take away that left hook he appears to have below average power.

            I will go with Danny. With the caveat that I am a big Danny fan, Danny fights to the level of his opponent. When he is in with lesser named fighters, he seems to just go through the motions and looks like an average guy.

            When he is in spotlight fights he performs his best. Everything "on paper" says this should be a Thurman win. Once the fight starts,and Danny starts jabbing and landing the left hook I think he frustrates Thurman. Don't forget Danny can also take a helluva punch.

            I think he outworks Thurman over 12 rounds and wins a close UD.

              This ^^^

              Danny's hopes of causing damage & slowing down is left hook to Thurman's body which he is quite susceptible.. But other than that Thurman easily outboxes Danny..

                Danny has fought cab driver after cab driver to get ready for this. That will hurt him. I think he slows down late (like always) and Keith puts him away by way of Angel throwing in the towel.

                  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.
                  Ward/Kov is the only fight at a higher level.

                  And if you want to claim these are 2 B level then ward/Kov are the only A listers you named

                    I believe Thurman is A-list talent at the same time i think Garcia is seriously underrated.

                    I got Thurman but it not be easy cause Garcia has more skill than given credit for.
