    If he ends up fighting Spence, he will have fought
    Spence
    Thurman
    Porter
    Peterson
    Khan
    Matthyse
    Herrera
    Guererro
    Malignaggi
    Judah
    Holt

    For a guy who was known for "ducking", he sure has an impressive resume.

    You for real put Guerrero on that list?

    He did take some absolutely garbage fights so name stands. He did have a good run at 140 though and has picked it up in more recent times

    At that time that Garcia fought him, Guererro was still considered a fringe 10 WW, having fought a very competitive fight against Thurman the previous year.

    Guerrero and Paulie are two of the worst title holders in recent times.

    They were however, both title holders (at more than one division), hardly bums.

    People knew Guerrero was done man, come on. He was lucky against Martinez; he wasn't a top 10 fighter at all. That was a trash fight.

    Salka was awful, absolutely awful. Vargas was trash - so what if he has fought other top guys, so have most journeymen. Was still a bad fight. Rios had no business being in there either realistically.

    Granados is perfectly fine coming off of a loss.

    He has earned some respect by fighting Porter\Thurman and potentially Spence though. I don't think he has much for Spence, mind.

    His dad being such an irredeemable ******* really hurt his career.

    Danny has an extremely good resume, even with the "couple" actual cherry picks. His overall resume is very solid and should be commended.

    I would say his resume is better than GGG’s if we really look at it at the very least he’s taken more Challenges then again it’s not hard to do that when it comes to GGG

    Garcia's resume is very good. Never understood the cherry pick label with him.
