If I had to make a choice I'd say Porter by a wide UD or late stoppage. He's just too active and physical. Was amazed he could throw that much volume after making a catch weight against Broner.
    We better control ourselves before we start getting too
    excited about a fight that might be hard to watch!

      My heart says Porter.
      My head says Garcia.

      All i am hoping for is there is NO controversy in this one.

        Garcia won't knock Porter out but he might get the nod in a close fight. Some people will say it's a robbery no matter who wins. It's one of those fights.

          I would also like to see one interview where he didn't use the phrase "at the end of the day" or "it is what it is".! I honestly don't think he is that bright.
          I use both of those phrases a lot

            Not out of the question.

            Garcia has pretty good timing and decent power at 147. Porter is pretty sloppy when he rushes in and he's been dropped before.

            Not sure if Porter gets finished, but I can see Danny G knocking him down.

              he is probably better connected if there is any *****ery.

              But I'm not my friend, I'm my own worst enemy,
              so I'm going out on a limb by saying that Porter will
              stop Garcia. Somehow. It wont be pretty.
              Garcia will get frustrated, cut, and dragged into Porter's
              ugly fight. Garcia has the skill, but Porter has the will.
              Garcia may get broken down, or he may find a reason
              to quit. It might be similar to Bradley vs Alexander.
              I actually do like both fighters, so this is just a whimsical
              prediction fueled by indica & alcohol.
              I believe Porter will win on activity but that f**ckery with one judge giving him the Thurman fight is something to think about yes.

                  Creek, when you leave that conspiracy crap you talk sense after all.

                      The Mosley sparring thing was a joke but there is one thing that Team Porter did that I think could make a difference. They brought Barry Hunter onboard. Hunter had a great gameplan for Garcia when Peterson fought him. I truly think he would've stopped Danny if the fight had gone on for a couple rounds.

                      Is it enough to beat him? I don't know. I think if Danny has the hunger back, he's an underrated fighter and should win and do so impressively.
