    i certainly dont think he can.

    His footwork is terrible. Its ok holding your ground against Khan and winging hooks but if he does that against Lucas its game over.

    He just doesnt do anything well enough for me, he wont move enough to make Lucas have to chase him down and leave himself open for counters, Hes a good but not concussive puncher lucas is, his hand speed is good not great. Why do they call him swift again??

    Hes got a lot of am experience and hes calm in the ring - but he nearly lost against theophane, got a spilt against Holt. Landed a great punch on Khan but was eating a lot of shots - if he takes that many against LM ill be suprised if hes vertical.

    Too beat Matthysse hes going to have to box him for 12 rounds and I just dont see him being able to do it

    Matthysse is the favourite but the odds on Garcia are quite generous, better than 2/1 is being offered...

    This is a mismatch like Cleverly vs Kovalev

    No way Garcia wins nothing he does will keep Lucas off him, will be a one sided fight

    We'll see. Danny Garcia will win and solidify hes status as the best 140 pounder.

    I just think Garcia's style is all wrong to fight LM, i mean the guys who have beaten LM have been boxers and guys who can do it for 12 rounds, Garcia hasnt the defense or footwork to avoid being caught clean for 12 rounds, This will be a gunslinger type of fight and LM has the better power and will be able to take more of Garcia's shots while Danny wont be able to take his

    Garcia is a clever counter puncher( khan fight) and could frustrate the life out of his opponent

    Hes not really clever though, he just swings punches and Khan walks into punches
    For every punch Garcia throws Matthysse will throw 3 head and body

    Its gonna be a beatdown

    Matthysse is the favourite and rightly so but I keep thinking Danny is gonna pull off the upset points win..
