Danny "Gift" Garcia wins another bogus decision.

Cool stat. This fight needs as much hype and coverage behind it as possible – it's hugely important for boxing.

Boxing has a golden opportunity to do itself a solid on the mainstream national stage. I'm confident that DSG and One Time will do their jobs.
Lets just hope the ref, and more importantly, the judges are impartial and give a just and fair decision at the end of the fight.

Both always come to fight and they know what's at stake. Its going to be a serious war in there. Al Haymon

Solid press release. The beginning of this year has been awesome for boxing! I think this fight can clear 6 million viewers.

Agreed !

I like both guys and this has potential to be a barnstormer if both men try and hold the centre of the ring

My only worry is if thurman decides to go on the back foot and box from range like we've seen him do often in the last couple of years . Dsg will get easily out worked

Only way I can see dsg winning is if thurman gets drawn into a close quarters shoot out

Speaking of Oscar and Trinidad, actually, the De La Hoya-Quartey and De La Hoya-Whitaker fights were much better than the Trinidad one where Oscar was robbed.
