Danny Garcia is SEVERELY Overrated

Are there people saying DSG is a HOF fighter? Im not saying you're lying but I've never seen anybody say it , they need to give their head a shake if they actually think that

 

That is absolutely insane, at this point in his career I don't think there's anything he could do to even warrant being on the ballot for the HOF

 

You know, now that someone mentioned it, I had to go back and look on Boxrec to refresh my memory. Aside from Morales (who was WAY past it), the 3 best boxers he faced, he lost: Thurman, Porter, and Spence. Other guys who were considered good wins like Mattysse, Judah, Khan, Peterson, doesnt bring him into the HOF worthy category IMO. His gift win: Herrera makes it more vivid as to why I cant place him in the HOF.

 

I have never heard anyone ever say Danny Garcia was a future HOF'er, even a potential one?

But to call him a "journeyman/titlist" is also being intellectually dishonest. He was the legit undisputed champion at 140 and that's a significant accomplishment. At 147 I'd say his ranking was more about fond memories of his 140 success. I also completely agree about those "wins" vs. Herrera and Peterson.

 

The best no look hook in the game since Magic Johnson.

 

Danny Garcia might be crude and slow but he's very dangerous

He is very tough and will pit himself in a position where he can get hit to trade and you do not want to trade with him.

Old man morales clowned him but too old to pull it off

A top tier boxer will outpoint him but he's no easy man to be in the ring with

 

He beats lara and all of a sudden people will say hes the best. Just how boxing fans are

 

Danny was damn good at 140. Probably a bit overrated during his 147 run but you don’t even hear anybody talking about him now so severely overrated is a stretch

 

He had the talent to carve himself a HOF worthy resume, but inactivity killed any chance of it.
A solid B level guy who fought a lot of the best guys around him, of whom he beat quite a few. He truly wasted his best years by sitting on the sidelines.

 

If anything, Danny overachieved in that, despite lacking a true "A+" level physical attribute (speed, power, athleticism etc), he's carved out a rather lengthy and commendable career at the highest levels.

Danny dusted Khan when the chinny Brit was still a formidable A-sider.

Likewise, Danny's win against Matthysee (painful as it is for me to admit as an unrepentant Lucas stan) was certainly noteworthy.

 

Judah clearly lost that one. However, Peterson got robbed blind by Garcia.

 

Darcia was a top JrWW for a spell. That's it. Average at WW at best.
