I think team Garcia realized he needed to fight Thurman for credibility and respect. Fighting Berto quality opponents fight after fight was costing him fans and would eventually start costing him money. He really needed to take a risky fight. I am glad he did. Us boxing fans deserve more fights like this. Garcia's popularity will increase even if he loses and it will really increase if he wins.
So DSG turned down $4 mil to fight Pacquiao to avoid a loss, but accepted Thurman
