    I was UNIMPRESSED by Garcia/Thurman last night

    These are supposed to be two of Americas finest, should have been an explosive match up but instead we got two cautious fighters stinking up the joint.

    These two showed how average they are tbh, both get left in a heap by Kell Brook if they ever fight.

      I'd bet on Brook against either of them for sure.

        new era dudes, you see it in the streets and you seen in boxing. These new era dudes dont really want any problems. They want to make it to the score cards and cry robbery they dont want to try and get it cause they scared they might get GOT! Real dudes aint never worried about taking an L and these boxers today are worried about getting knocked out. They rather lose on the score cards and cry robbery than to risk maybe getting knocked out trying to prove they are THAT GUY!

        Untill boxers are willing to flex their balls in the ring and go for the kill boxing will always fail to impress.

            Aren't you the clown that made a thread saying Thurman would be left "in a heap"?

            Anyhow, decent fight but my opinion of both went down slightly. Garcia didn't go after it and Keith looked sloppy. Plus, he ran AGAIN. The fight was important and needed to happen though.
            Started out really exciting at least.

                  The fight started out good but both decided to take a nap for the second half.

                    They're afraid to get hit doe. They like giving it, but hate taking it.
