    That's bad news for Danny. He won't be bringing his Showtime judges with him.

    Edit: I forgot CBS owns Showtime. It looks like Danny will have that special insurance policy after all.

    Now I get to watch Thurman get robbed the way he robbed Porter.

    Thurman should win but Danny Garcia is a very successful over achiever that I can't count out. Robberies or not, he comes through against the bigger names.

    Cool another coming out party for Keef

    As it's been pointed out here he is the bigger man, and he moves well, he is going to bust Danny up

    I dunno man he's looked pretty pedestrian in a few fights, freaking Judah had him wounded late

    Danny shines in big moments against especially when he is seen by so many to be the underdog. The lights will be shinning brightest of all for this fight being that it's on CBS, and against a big Puncher everybody expects to win. Yes Danny can have off nights against opponents like Judah (at this stage of Judah's career) but I all but guarantee this night on National Network television wont be one of them.

    cant wait. lets go danny. this is a huge hurdle , both tremendous fighters highly skilled. keith maybe be bigger and hit a little harder. danny specializes in the puerto rican left hook also has great timing. they both can mix it up and they will show great respect after this fight toward eachother no doubt because this gonna be a fight

    Wait it ust dawned on me what you said, so Danny left Golden Boy? It says on BoxRec that Thurman is still with GBP, has he left too?

    Best matchup I can think of for quite awhile. Must be close to a pick em' fight. Should be a great night for boxing, hope it comes through. :ARMS1:

    I hear ya, I don't see any way this fight could possibly be a dud, if for no other reason than for Garcia to win the fight he has to fight what amounts to a entertaining fight.

    I guess we'll see, personally I think he's out gunned. Angel is going to lose his voice again

    Everybody, and I mean everybody thought he was out gunned against Khan and Matthysse, and those are his 2 best performances. Until someone proves they can defeat Danny in a big fight like this, I ain't picking against him. I'm sure it will happen someday, but Thurman ain't the one.

    Good for CBS, it's time fans boycott PPV!
