    Danny Garcia could have beat everyone on his resume and he still wouldn't be HOF for me.

    The most worrying thing about Danny ''Swift'' Garcia fans is they think his Lego haircut looks cool :risas3:

    I hear you, but he didnt lose every important fight he was in. The Matthysse fight was massively important at the time, and Garcia was like -400 against Khan, obviously a big important fight for him that he pulled the upset in.

    Definitely not an ATG of course. And a level or two below HOF.

    YOU just said Danny is HOF if he beats a 41 year old Lara..who has 4 fights in past 5 years all versus fringe contenders. But, according to you, this is what Danny needs to get into HOF.

    Stunning stuff

    I am an idiot and thank you for correcting. Both the Khan and Matthyse wins were good solid wins. Its everything else that has been less (including Herrera and Peterson "wins"/robberies).

    Insane to me that some think beating an inactive 41 year old opponent gets ANYONE into the HOF. . ..

    I said he’d be in consideration and have a case to get in the HoF if he beats Lara and becomes a 3 divisional champion across 4 weight classes.

    Also….. Aww, boo hoo about Lara. He’s the WBA middleweight champion, top 5 ranked at 160 and everyone refuses to fight him but since Danny, a natural 140 pounder with only 3 fights in 4 years in his first fight at 160 decides to take the challenge, he deserves 0 credit if he wins despite the size and style disadvantage cause I don’t like him, he has a stupid haircut and is a 6 toed freak. :hollering:

    He got a complete gift vs Peterson if you saw that fight, lost nearly every round. Heard he was luck vs Nate Campbell and Kendal Holt as well not seen those fights though.

    People forget how massive an underdog win vs Khan that was, I doubt you're the only one!

    One thing I'll say about Garcia is his chin is HOF worthy but that will be tested vs Lara.

    Pac didn't stop Rios. Garcia stopped Rios.

    Garcia > Pac
    Garcia = ATG

    Danny is fighting a 41 year old whose been very inactive and has only fought journeymen for years now, but - sure - if Danny wins this he's up there w Hagler.

    CROWN HIM
