Comments Thread For: Ryan Garcia Names Linares, Campbell, Davis For 2020 Four-Fight Wish List

[Southpaw010]

That could never happen bc Linares is a 50/50 fight at best. If he didn't happen to get by him Campbell would stop him but if he did actually have those fights 2-2 would be best case scenario.

Easily by planting the power on Ryan's chin. Easy work for Davis. 🥊

Like old gimpy Gamboa? You're talking about 130 and blown up bantams.

Garcia vs Linares is the fight that will be made.

Nobody cares for Campbell and Davis won’t fight on DAZN.

Linares should give the kid a lesson.

That's a solid wish list, can't get mad at ambition but those are some dicey fights. Depending on which Linares shows up he may not make it past the first name on that list.

Anyone notice that Tank Davis name was mentioned last. Translation they will duck him. He and De la ho are leading his fans down a fake road. 🥊

Porky is doing plenty of ducking himself. Scared of Loma, scared of Farmer, he only tough on Twitter. It's no faker than the road Porky is on, PPV set to tank and he wants to fight a FW rather than the big dogs in his division. Get outta here with that nonsense.

Linares is trash, always has been a C level fighter but I get it. Garcia has to show that he can beat boxing veterans and in that regard, Linares is an okay fight.

Campbell is an okay fighter and he’s not old so that’s an alright for Garcia’s experience level, but still not a top guy.

I think Davis beats Garcia but I don’t think that fight happens. DLH won’t allow a Mayweather fighter to beat his rising star. DLH hates Mayweather’s guts and he wouldn’t be able to stand that L from Davis.

Here is the Ring magazine top-10 at 135 for 2019:

Vasiliy Lomachenko, Champion

Teofimo Lopez
Devin Haney
Richard Commey
Luke Campbell
Robert Easter Jr.
Ryan Garcia
Javier Fortuna
Emmanuel Tagoe
Rances Barthelemy
Yvan Mendy

How many of these guys are C-level? How about B-level? I'm just curious because Luke Campbell is in the top-10 and you rate him as "ok". Linares gave Lomachenko a decent challenge and even dropped him and yet he's trash.

I'm with you bro. Linares has some skills but he was a fragile even at his prime but I suspect he is pretty shopworn at this stage (and I'm a fan). Campbell is more than ok, I rate him B+ or A- if I'm giving out grades.

In respect to Garcia, I think he'd probably lose rounds to Linares before catching and clipping him. If he fought Campbell next, I imagine he'd catch his first L there unless he could stay vertical and get the benefit of the judges. Campbell is a beautiful boxer IMO but he can get outhustled at times.

Yes Linares is trash. Always has been.

Idc that Linares dropped Lomachenko. He’s no where near Lomachenko’s league. Lomachenko wasn’t the slightest bit hurt by that, he was just shocked he got dropped by a bum. Linares was knocked out for the 4th time of his career. Then he got knocked out AGAIN, by yet ANOTHER journeyman Pablo Cesar Cano in ONE round, just like he did vs Salgado, and KO’ed in 2 rounds vs another journeyman Sergio Thompson. And several of those KO’s came from journeymen who were placed in front of Linares for the purpose of showcasing his talent. Instead he showcased his weak chin repeatedly to the point where DLH had to downgrade his opponents even more and feed him absolute no hopers.

Lomachenko is a great fighter but not a great puncher. He stops his opponents with an accumulation of punches and that’s what saved Linares from getting KO’ed early.

If you can’t KO Linares, then you’re probably not all that good. Because even if you suck, you may still be able to KO Linares. Campbell couldn’t KO Linares or even beat him. How good is he?

Danny Lalonde knocked down Leonard. He was no where near SRL’s league.

Freddie Delgado knocked down Tommy Hearns. Freddie who?

Hagler’s only knock down (although controversial/contested) came from Juan Domingo Roldan. Yeah, again, who?

Blake Caparello knocked down prime Sergiy Kovalev, it doesn’t make Caparello a good fighter.

Darnell Boone knocked down Andre Ward. What does that mean? Nothing.

I can go on and on.

Well, his age says to move him up slow. I doubt he will meet a top 5 guy fir at least another 3 years. That said, he isn’t anything special other than hes very big for his weight. His amateur record says it all.

Linares did more than score a flash knockdown against Lomachenko but ok fine, you have your mind set and I won't argue the point any further. You still didn't address my question about who is B or C-level in the top 10 and it sounds like almost everybody could be considered "trash" if we're using your criteria.
