    And can't handle pressure??? What fight that happen in? The more pressure the more counter punching left hooks he gets.
    I never said Brook was better than Garcia. I said they don't fight in a similar fashion. Once Peterson started applying pressure, Garcia started fading and looked horrible handling it. Brook handled it well against Porter but against Spence it was too much for him to deal with. Stylistically, Spence would have an easier fight against Garcia because he wouldn't be dealing with the upper body movement and the counters would be more predictable. If you stand right infont of Garcia, yes, he has more opportunities for counters.

      Me too! When Cotto was talking about fighting Marquez @ 150, and it didn't happen, I thought "why not DSG?" Plus you add in the PR Day Parade...$$$$! Has any Roc Nation Champion faced a Champion advised by Al Haymon?

        Yes, but atleast Brook give you upper body movement, Garcia does not. Brook counter from a defensive posture, Garcia counter from taking a punch in the face often with his eyes closed (literally). Thurman showed that you can neutralize his counters.

        Brook fought against a pressure fighter that was two weight classes above him and a big WW who is also one of the best pressure fighters. Garcia had trouble with slow footed Peterson. That's a big difference.

                    No on Roc Nation and Al Haymon. They won't probably ever do buisness. Also Roc Nation isn't going to be around much longer.

                    Yeah I never under stood why PR's like Cotto never fight during the PR Parade like Mexican do during our Holidays. They always have a bunch of celebrities out there also.
