    Praying Lara KTFO this dope. Always fighting undeserving opponents or outright journeymen. Nearly EVERY time he stepped up he lost (Keith, Errol, Shawn) and squeaked by Matthyse who wound up being a decent champion (like Danny). The Khan win was good too, but I dont give much credit for:

    Old, shot to **** Morales x 2
    Old Judah
    Old Lamont Peterson (who was robbed anyway)
    Old Ghost Guerrero
    Rod Salka lol
    Mauricio Herrera (who was robbed anyway)
    Old Adrian Granados
    Ivan Redkach lol
    Old Paulie

    Seriously, Danny Garcia is one of the only Headlining Boxers whose opponents people have to LOOK UP cause theyre so random/bad.

    Cant stand Danny G...undeserving but Angel is funny

    Always a boring fighter, and now he's old & inactive.

    A truly horrible co-feature and shows how far PBC has fallen that they have to stage a bout like this.

    Given his period of inactivity and for his standards, Erislandy Lara is not that bad. Couldn't care less about this fight though.

    I knew some boxing old heads out there be like talking that stuff about Danny Little Red Garcia like he was the best puncher ever and he did KO Morales and Castanon. He could really punch though.

    You can criticise the latter part of his career all you like but 140 lbs prime Danny Garcia was a world no 1 and built a very good resume.

    Angel is an idiot.

    Unreal that this happened.
    I’ll defend Lara as the unwanted but talented. But Garcia is laughable to be anywhere near 160. he was a big puncher that was always in the fight because of it.

    It does nothing for nobody.

    a meldrick vs Norris at worst. Or Leonard vs lalond at best. Proves nothing.

    Danny could punch so much that he had old Lamont, old Ghost, old Judah, and Ivan freaking Redkach hanging on for dear life.

    And Morrales? At 140? An old shot Morales coming from 126? Hilarious

    Danny LOST to Herrera (1 fight after Matthyse) and LOST to Peterson at 140. And his best wins, Khan and Matthyse, wound up being nothingburgers.

    Please try again.

    Better fight the canelo berlanga. Berlanga is a clown flat out.

    Did he not also get a bad thumb to the eye quite early in the fight?

    Didn’t Lara 1 punch KO his opponent in his last fight? I think this will be a good fight.
