Comments Thread For: Danny Garcia: Mikey's Just Making Noise; He Won't Fight Spence

[Dr.Cool]

Mikey Garcia has more balls than you will never know. You are the one who has a history of taking low risk fights with overmatched and washed up fighters on your resume; Not Mikey. So take that shit elsewhere!

You do realize Danny was a major underdog against Khan, Matthysse, and Thurman? And many claimed Peterson would beat him too? Khan was supposed to walk all over Danny, and Matthysse was supposed to end poor Danny's career and possibly his life. Peterson was the top contender, and then he fought Thurman.

Poor on the hate though! That's what you get when you only fight one top level, elite opponent a year. He should be fighting guys like Dulorme, Jean, Indongo, and Horn. You know, guys he would be a heavy favorite to beat.

And to top it off, you are hating on him now, when he is again fighting a top opponent in a month's time! Danny will beat Porter, you will say Danny cherry-picked him, and then Danny will fight Spence next year and lose, and you will say Danny only beat a bunch of bums.

Sure if you consider washed up fighters like Paulie Malignaggi, Erik Morales twice, Zab Judah, Robert Guerrero, Brandon Rios. In addition, I hear a lot of his fanboys keeps mentioning the names of Ashley Theophane and Kendall Holt.

Who the fuck are they and who the fuck they have they ever beaten seriously? I remember Holt losing twice to Timothy Bradley and stopped by Lamont Peterson who has only one notable win on his resume which was a controversial decision win against Amir Khan while on the juice.

As far as Ashley Theophane is concerned, all I remember about him was he getting his ass kicked by a faded, shopworn Adrien Broner.

If one were to examine Danny Garcia's resume very closely; They would easily see that he is an overrated fighter; Who has a padded resume of low risk fighters of overmatched and washed up opponents on it.

You are trying to rewrite history here. Nobody expected him to beat Khan, and 80% people expected him to get stopped by Matthysse. These were top fighters with big names in their prime when Danny beat them.

I cant think of one, not ONE Mikey Garcia opponent who had equal to higher expectations as either Khan or Matthysse when Danny fought them. Yes, after time those two fighters fell off the map, as many do. But the same can be said for anybody Mikey has faced as well, and again, his opponents never had even ONE QUARTER of the buzz or expectations as Amir/ Lucas. And lets not forget he also fought Thurman. A loss? yes, but he fought him and performed well. That's three elite (at the time) fighters on Danny's resume and absolutely 0 on Mikey's. Does he get credit going up against a bigger Lipinets? Of course. Does he get credit for Broner? yes. Broner was not elite when Mikey faced him, but I will throw you a bone and give you that one name, fine..

And I like both fighters. A bigger fan of Mikey's than I am of Garcia, but facts are facts.

Yeah only 3 fucking times out 35 professional fights where he was an underdog? Seriously? Are you kidding me? I must say that is very impressive.

When Danny fought Khan, Khan was the consensus #1 in the division. When Danny fought Matthysse, Matthysse was considered the best in the division, and many thought Matthysse would not only beat Danny, but would beat Floyd Mayweather too. When Danny fought Peterson, Peterson was the #1 contender.

Morales and Judah were older but were still top 5 opponents for the division.

I get it though, ever since Matthysse, people have hated Danny. Matthysse was everyone's favorite and considered the best and Danny destroyed his career.

He has fought the top guy more than Thurman, Porter, Spence, Bummed, and almost everyone else. He was supposed to get murdered by Khan and Matthysse when he fought them. He wasn't being protected, he was the opponent for others to look great, but he beat them. And he has fought Thurman. Danny has taken more tough fights than almost anyone else. But go ahead and hate on him. Everyone always does.

Danny has been taking the fights he was supposed to lose in. And then after he wins, the haters change their tune and say those were easy fights. Before the fight DSG is going to get killed and after the fight it was Danny cherry-picking. He is 30 years old and fought the top 140 lber. three years in a row and then fought the top 147 in Thurman the next. No one else is fighting a top opponent every year.

And now, while Thurman is retired and Bummed is facing Indongo and Horn, Danny is once again fighting a top opponent in Porter. And after he wins, everyone will again say he was cherry-picking; fighting someone who already lost to Thurman and Brook.

The man takes low risk fights against handpicked, limited, overmatched and washed up opponents. Moreover, he cherrypicks 92% of the time and you say that makes an impressive resume? Shit! Goddamn it!

Here's what we won't see anytime soon.

Pac vs Crawford
M.Garcia vs Spence

Why Spence and Bud ducking each other?

Spence will fight a lightweight but he wont fight Bud?
Crawford will fight a slow old departing Pacquiao but he wont fight Spence?

To be the best, you got to fight the best. And the best in the welterweight division right now is Spence and Crawford. But they duckin each other. Twitter squabble between the two is the only thing we're getting. Shame.

Promoters are no obstacles. Your promoter works for you, not the other way around.

They're protecting their zero like they're protecting their ******ities. Man up. Fight the best and be the best

Nice job leaving out the fact that he faced khan when khan was in his prime and was considered to be next in line to face mayweather, or how he faced mathysse in his prime when everyone considered him to be the most feared fighter at 140, he faced hererra who was a top guy at 140 as well as Peterson and then faced thurman. Now let's look at Mikey garcia, 11 loss Orlando salido? Broner who has lost every big fight he's had, and Robert Easter? Again, their list of opponents faced greatly favors Danny and it's not close.

That's only three high risk fights in nearly 40 fights. Khan, Matthysse and Thurman. The rest of his resume comprises of 92% of low risk cherrypicked fighters. That's a fact.

You won't admit it because you are a fan. However, if it was another fighter who you were not a fan of and had similar credentials as Danny Garcia's you would see the same thing that many others see. Danny is an overrated fighter.

Also, you brought up Mikey Garcia. Mikey has more class in his little Pinky than Danny and his dad both have in their low class, ****** ass bodies.

Each time you put them in front of a microphone they make complete asses out of themselves. I felt that spectacle at the Barclay's center they created to the build up to the Keith Thurman unification bout last year was beyond shameful.

Mikey never bad mouths anyone. He is too focused, discipline and serious for that shit. Sure his older brother Robert could be a real prick from time to time but not Mikey because he is too much of a professional, family man and gentleman for that kind of bullshit.

Also, just because Danny's cowardly ass is afraid of taking on a high risk fighter like Errol Spence, Jr. Doesn't mean Mikey Garcia is. Therefore, he shouldn't project his fears and insecurities onto him because he lacks the balls to be great.

Yeah Herrera and Peterson were two cherrypicks gone wrong. He lost both those fights but was awarded the decision anyhow. Khan, Matthysee and Thurman are the only high risk fighters on his resume in 35 fights. However, 92 percent of the other names on his resume are all low risk handpicked opponents.

research how many times danny was the underdog going into fights and how many times Mikey or any other top current fighter was an underdog going into fights. Danny has been an underdog in more fights than guys like Mikey, Canelo, Spence, Thurman, etc. You can also say 92% of any current fighters resume can be considered low risk.

I dont think Mikeys calling Spence out to name drop, I believe he's serious. I give him a very slim chance of beating Spence, and it could go really bad for him. I dont think DG will fight Spence even if he did beat Porter. Maybe I'm wrong, only time will tell.
