Comments Thread For: Danny Garcia: Thurman Underestimating Me, I Will Expose Him!

[John Locke]

I just keep picturing the Peterson fight in my head and see almost no way Danny wins this without landing his big left hook. Keith won't give away them early rounds and I forsee a terrible beating for Danny. I just think this an absolute nightmare style matchup for Danny.

You're scaring the **** outta me man, don't count Danny out!

Peterson was very cautious against Danny early on, he didn't engage at all, Thurman won't fight like that, he'll be more active and therefore present Danny with opportunities to counter him. Danny is a very durable guy, he takes a shot better than most, Thurman can't go in there looking to take Danny out, that would play into Danny's hands. He needs to stay disciplined, let Danny be the aggressor, let him get off first and look to counter him.

Both guys are at their best against aggressive fighters, so whoever fights on the front foot will be at a disadvantage in this fight imo.

I'm picking Thurman by decision, but it's gonna be a tough, tough fight. Garcia is a bit slow, but he's very sharp and accurate, he'll be extremely dangerous in the exchanges.

Thurman needs to use his speed advantage, he's more explosive and mobile, it would be a good idea for him to use his legs to circle Danny and shoot from angles.

Well I doubt Keith stops him as Danny is tough as nails imo, but I see almost no advantages for Danny outside of expirience with higher level competition. Given how Keith has fought his last few fights I don't see him getting reckless which is what Danny will need to land his money punch. Not saying Danny can't win and the last time I was this certain about a matchup J-Rock got stopped lol. So there is that haha.

Fair enough. If Thurman doesn't go in there looking to prove a point and stays smart, I think he wins an 8-4 type of decision.

I picked JRock to win that fight as well man, I had him 3-1 up, but it turns out his punch resistance might not be the best. Charlo is a quality fighter though, he better be ready for your man Andrade!

I agree. Keep seeing people saying this is going to be tough etc, nah it wont be. People will be shocked at how easy it is for thurman, garcia should have two losses really against herrera and peterson. Hes not at thurmans level, simple as that, thurman has the advantage in basically every single attribute.

I'm a fan of Keith Thurman but I think he might get iced if he goes toe-2-toe with Garcia, his chin looks a little bit shakey, he got shook in the Soto-Karass fight.

And Danny, I definitely underestimated, the dude can box, he's a really good boxer in his own right. But I just wish he would stop clinching some much, it's kinda of an eyesore.

nonetheless, great 50-50 fight.

I think Danny is the more fundamental fighter of the 2. But Keith is the bigger and better athlete. If Keith decides to fight him in the pocket and not use his lateral movement, then this will be a very exciting and entertaining fight that Danny can win by close decision. But if Keith decides to fight his usual style, then its a much easier fight for him and I see him winning by UD.

Garcia is OVER RATED! who has he beat in these 30 fights? washed up fighters matthysse and glass jaw khan? thats his best 2 wins. the rest were all old cherries, or just cherries.oh, no, i stand corrected he beat paulie didnt he.

if herrera could bust up danny face whats keith goin do? man the way he was strafing and connecting against porter he looked sharp, and porter is 10 times more durable than garcia.
