Danny Garcia: how would you rate his overall boxing career

B+ or A- if your Puerto Rican & from NY or Philly.

 

Where to start...

If you give any weight to him beating Erik Morales x2 at that point in Morales's career than I don't know what to say.

EVERY knowledgeable fight fan knows Khan was a knockout waiting to happen. Khan, IMO, was beating Swifty until he got clocked by a left hook that Swifty wasn't even looking at when he threw it.

Judah is Judah and at that point in his career, he was a gatekeeper with a name.

I do rate his win against Mathysse as his best win, though. Mathysse, at the time, was looking like the man to beat at 140, and he did beat him, IMO.

He lost against Mauricio Herrera, and it's a shame they robbed him (Herrera) of that win.

He beat Robert "The Faded Ghost" Guerrero. Again, a way past his best Guerrero, and even at his best wasn't what I would call HOF material.

No comment on Lamont Peterson fight since I didn't watch it.

Brandon Rios? Again, a B-level fighter who was way past his best.

I do give credit to Danny Garcia for his commitment to always coming in shape, his chin, and his power. He made do with what he had and was a champ. Not a lot of people can say that. However, and no offense to him, I don't believe he is a HOFer.
