7-5 Garcia.
Peterson gave away 6 entire rounds by doing nothing. He would've won easily if he threw a punch.
While we're on it, I had Herrera winning 9-3 way back when. That fight wasn't remotely competitive. -
He's had a lot of razor thin decisions. And even the mattyste fight with the eye injury, seems to be able to pull them off.Comment

I'd have to rewatch again. I had it for Peterson though.
People talk about Peterson 'running' but wtf was Garcia doing? People are quick to score against the 'runner' even when the aggressor is being ineffective. Garcia fought Peterson's fight for 12 rounds. When Peterson boxed Garcia was just chasing him without trapping the guy. When Peterson decided to brawl and exchange Garcia was there for that too AND getting manhandled as well. So, who was fighting whose fight really?Comment

I though it was one of Dannys worst performances. Something was up, maybe he took lamont lightly, maybe lamont is just a bad style match up.I'd have to rewatch again. I had it for Peterson though.

He didn't take Peterson lightly. Garcia just doesn't know how to deal with movement and people who box. Just watch the Khan fight before Khan went full ******, the Herrera fight and beginning of Peterson fight. Then Peterson pounced on him once Danny was weakened. Watch the second half of the Judah fight and Peterson fight so you can see how Danny fades.
Watch for Thurman to implement the same gameplan as Peterson. Box and move. Unfortunately I don't have faith in Thurman's discipline to do it without getting into wild exchanges like he's known to do.
Peterson gets **** for his PEDs but he's a very good fighter and disciplined. You can see it in the Garcia fight and his latest fight as well.Comment

i'd have to rewatch the fight again also, but if i can remember correctly, it wasn't that hard of a fight to score.
i gave the first 7 rounds to garcia, and the last 5 to peterson. it wasn't a robbery, garcia wasn't given a gift, he simply won enough rounds, that by the time peterson decided to do something, his only hope was a KO or a couple KD's.Comment

But Peterson wasn't doing anything he wasn't throwing... Through the first six rounds he only threw 35 punches and landed 15 versus Garcia who threw 150 and landed 55... Garcia wins based off activity alone he was an ineffective "runner".. if you want an effective "runner" look at Lara.. he uses movement by he still throws punches thus scoring. Peterson only has himself to blame for that loss. I understood his game plan in full but he executed it too late.I'd have to rewatch again. I had it for Peterson though.

I remember thinking it was a draw. Lamont won every round he threw punches and lost everyone he didn't. I remember this being Danny's worst performance though, he only won rounds that Lamont gave away. Never landed a thing of note.Comment
