Comments Thread For: Kenny Porter: They call Danny Garcia a cherry picker for a reason

[j.razor]

That's the best way to describe Angel Garcia. I have no problem with Kenny, if anyone could slip into irrelevance, it should be that obnoxious loudmouth Angel Garcia.

You got it a*s backwards. kenny is the obnoxious shet talker but Angel keeps it 100, no sugarcoating.

What's age have to do with it?

A lot, its easier....He should of been a pro earlier.

[lizard_man]

Garcia will beat porter

[mlac]

This is obviously war of words, Kenny doesn't believe, he knows the sport.

Danny's resume is A*, he's fought the best at 140 and the best at 147

On paper it is yeah.

In reality it isnt:

Khan - good upset win
Morrales x2 - literally the end of his career, at a weight he didnt belong
Judah - Well past prime.
Matthysse - won in a close fight that neither were ever the same, Danny got away with dozens of lowblows, fair reff he could of easily been DQ
Herrera - he lost and got a gift
Peterson - close fight could of gone either way, Danny himself told Lamont that he won the fight
Guerrero - years past prime, just got dropped and lost to journeyman Aaron Martinez

On paper the names are all there, but in reality thats all it is, a name to look good on paper when everyone knows they are years past their best. Which is why Team Garcia is picking them

What is easier? I said it was his 3rd weight class and you mention age. Like how is that relevant? Crawford just became a three division champ himself and is around the same age as Lomachenko.

Khan and Matthysse were top 3 fighters at 140 when Garcia beat them, as a clear underdog in both fights. Those are his signature wins at the weight and the wins that made him #1. Morales and Judah were obviously past it but they came to fight, Morales was coming off a close fight with Maidana and a win over Cano going into the Danny fight, he wasn't a dead body in there.

Danny didn't tell Peterson he won the fight, there's an enhanced audio on what was actually said. I thought Herrera beat him also, but it was a close fight and my opinion doesn't count for anything, it's just my opinion.

Sure he beat guys past their prime but so has every other fighter. Danny has fought the best fighters in both weight classes he's fought at, IN THEIR PRIME. Khan and Matthysse at 140, Thurman and now Porter at 147 and he's more than likely gonna fight at least one of Spence or Crawford too.

Danny is a soldier.

DSG:
Ashley Theophane, Nate Campbell, Kendall Holt, Érik Morales, Amir Khan, Zab Judah, Lucas Matthysse, Mauricio Herrera (I thought DSG lost), Lamont Peterson, Paulie Malignaggi, Robert Guerrero, Keith Thurman, Brandon Ríos, Shawn Porter.

Now give me shawn porter resume.

Now answer this question for me which of the guys from that list were at least at their physical peaks or at full strength when he fought them?

This post makes no sense.

It makes sense if he was FORCED into this fight. He’s been plucking many cherries as of late. That includes Thurman.

20 to 30 fights you are an all around pro, at a good age & should be at your "prime." I bolded the fighters.

So in other words: You just hating on DSG....got it.
