    Is Danny Garcia damaged goods or something?

    I think this is the worst I have seen Danny fight. It seemed that he "couldn't" pull the trigger; over history a precise sign that a fighter is too old, damaged goods, or his reflexes and killing instinct is gone...the prey is laying hurt in front of you but you can't bite it.

    Please let me know if you too have the feeling that in fact, too many times Danny was in the pocket and in punching range but simply didn't do it.

    What’s Danny really done at 147. He was great at 140 but has flattered to deceive at 147.

    What’s his best win at 147? Guerrero? Rios?

      i don't think he is damaged goods, he actually threw a decent amount of punches imo.

      he was clearly befuddled by spences jab and upper body movement and couldn't find the target for his preferred punches.

      his problem is he constantly tries to wait for perfect moments for single left hooks and straight rights or overhand rights.

      he would have been more successful had he tried uppercuts, but danny doesn't throw that punch very often, he landed a good one on spence and shoulda threw it more when spence leaned foward.

          Not clever enough, too predictable, doesn't capitalize on his opponent's mistakes.

          Crawford will do all the right things that Danny failed to do, and he'll make easy work of Spence.

            He is too economical with his shots and thinks too much. He was supposed to get busy and aggressive from the opening round yet he couldnt even follow the obvious plan.

            He is not damaged at all. He just doesnt belong with the big boys at 147.

              No, it’s just the same story it’s always been against the top guys at 147

              He’s good and tough enough to be competitive but not got that bit of extra quality to get him over the line and win.

              Just last night he fought the best guy he’s faced, so he was a bit less competitive.

                his best win was against glass chin khan and old washed up Morales. he fights the same and throws the same punch. he's lucky somehow to get to the point where he's at with a coked out trainer dad and 2 thot twin sisters.

                  Danny is a good solid fighter his best weight was 140 he just not quite there to get a WW title, a strong contender at the tail of his career.

                    It was a simple game plan for Garcia 'Put pressure on Spence Junior, try and make him break down'.

                    I don't think Spence Junior is difficult to find, or figure out 'Garcia should of really set a higher tempo, he had this all in his arsenal but did not deliver it etc'.
