Will Swift be able to back Thurman on the ropes just like Guerrero and Porter did? No. That's what Garcia is incapable of doing, so forget about such scenario happening and also knowing One Time could throw punches off his back foot.
Most of Swift's winning punches were in the midst of busy exchanges. Meaning, when the opponent gets careless. Thurman is nothing like Matthysse.
Don't know what special advantages Garcia got in this fight. So it's Thurman for me, easily.

Im going with garcia on this one. while i can agree that garcia is good at alot great at nothing, i really dont see what all the fuzz about thurman is. His fight against bull rushing porter was nothing spectacular. everyone who was watching the fight with me had porter winning except me by a close margin. i dont see thurman beating khan or peterson. Garcia by ko rds 4-7.. if it goes longer i think thurman might outbox him if he stays on the outside and doesnt get into long exchanges with danny.

Go on so and tell me who their on that list is a "boxing expert"??
Okay, so to answer your question I'd say most of them, but in particular:
Adam Booth
Frank Warren
Gary Lockett
Joe Gallagher
... And I'd chuck Ashley Theophane in who has as much right to an analysis as anyone given he's shared a ring with Garcia.
If you don't think these guys are qualified enough within the sport of boxing to give their opinion on this fight then YDKSAB.
...wait a minute... you do know who these people are don't you?Last edited by cameltoe; 03-01-2017, 03:13 PM.

Danny just seems to pull it out of the bag. He has better boxing skills than most give him credit for, and a solid beard by all accounts. Everyone expected Mattysse to dominate but Garcia cruised. How much the eye had to do with it I don't know, was fairly even fight until that point.
I've not seen anything in Thurman's fighting to suggest he will dominate here but I'd say if it comes to a firefight how can you not back Danny? He just seems to have an ability to time opponents with that one big shot.
Thurman on points though?
I'm 50/50 and I really can't say. If a gun was to my head I'd say Danny by horrible split or majority decision that keeps the robbery trolls busy for a few weeks.

Yes they are obviously entitled to their opinion but their certainly not boxing "experts"..
Adam booth, please, he can bring fighters to a certain level and that's it, not saying he is not a good trainer, but he is the same as me and you giving our opinion
Frank Warren is a business man/promoter, not an expert, just have a look back at some of stuff he has written or given his "expert" opinion on.
Joe Gallagher, come on man really? I'm not even gonna waste my time on trying to comment on that bum
Gary locket, maybe the only credible option from your list, useless boxer, but to be fair to him he knows his stuff, definitely not an expert so to speak, but yea he knows what he's talking about most of the time.
Ashley theopane is 100% not an expert..... but yes he can give his opinion just like everyone else..
It's all good with them giving their opinion, but come on and be real, their not "experts" and If their the experts then boxing has big problems...

If you don't value the opinion of the trainers of multiple world champions, one of the biggest promoters in world boxing, plus a guy who has actually been in the ring with Garcia, then what does it take for you to consider someone an 'expert'?
If McGuigan had been in that list you wouldn't be complaining.

I wouldn't have my own picture and name up if I was troll, your the troll if anything haha..
Like I said, it's all good them giving their opinions, obviously if their asked it they will give it 2, but that don't make them experts..it doesn't mean I'm not going to listen to their opinion to see what other people are thinking, the same way I'll listen to what your opinion is, and others on here...
Look, I suppose we have different views on what an "expert" is, but everyone has their opinion on what a boxing expert is,, for me, Bert sugar
was an expert, those are the kind of people I'm class as experts,and their not always right before you say something along those lines,someone who has been around for a very long and doesn't have a biased opinion cause they know this person or like this person more and seen or remembers this fighter when they started out,and can't point out the flaws....... but pleeaassseee don't be counting Joe Gallagher as an expert, cause that's just...wrong
