    Impressive performance by my boy Danny no doubt. I'd love to see him get the Porter rematch. I thought he won that fight.

    DSG would always annihilate that level of fighter. Beating him into the ground doesn't change anything. That's a decent tune up for DSG, nothing more noting less

    He loses to Spence, could definitely catch TC and beat him. He should be favorable over the rest.. Very good almost great, he has some elite attributes but not all needed to be in the fully elite class

    Adrian gets much respect for KOing Imam at the height of his hype ,but Haymon has been using him as a punching bag for his top earners when hey have a bad night or two. I was really hoping he would give Garcia a hard night like Ugas gave Porter and Josesito gave Thurman.

    Garcia had electric wins against prime Khan and Lucas Matthysse. Fat, old Morales didnt mean much of anything but at least it was a savage KO.

    Welterweight career is just nothing to talk about. Got his ears boxed off by Herrera, boring against PEDerson, and really Malignaggi was his best win (unless you're impressed by Guerrero??)

    He lost close in his two best fights with Thurman and Porter. That really took the steam and interest out of him.

    Does anyone really believe he gives a winning effort against the new kings - Crawford and Spence??

    He's a solid contender but nothing more. After Spence goes through Crawford and Thurman i suspect Garcia will enforce his mandatory status and take on Spence before Crawford can get to him....but that'll be the end of his story.

    I did. I was impressed by the KO streak and I thought the Don King curse was over and he would be back on top again but Granados didn't get the script that he was supposed to lose , messed everything up
    Now Imam has the Jones/Khan disease of the chin.

    Bro, Danny Garcia at 147 is nothing but a stepping stone. He is now just a fighter that makes other fighters resumes look good and so does Shawn " smother my punches" Porter. Tim Bradley was a short fighter too but never ever looked as sloppy as Shawn does.

    I think he beats old Pac.
    Loses to Spence and Crawford.
    50-50 in Porter and Thurman rematches (they both didnt look good in their last bouts)

    what did you make of Porter's last 2?

    I know many felt he lost to Garcia and Ugas or at the very least squeaked by Garcia and lost to Ugas but I felt he had a much more refined and controlled offense than in his usual fights. Maybe its why he won controversially but it certainly made his last two fights more exciting and he took less punishment

    I thought Garcia looked flat in the Porter fight he was sharp last night and I could see him knocking Porter out if he showed up like that.
