    I think so. Even if it's a flash knockdown, and he catches Pac coming in with a flush shot I think he puts him on his ass. Bradley hurt him in the 2nd fight, Vargas hurt him and these guys are feather fisted, if Garcia hit him WITH THOSE shots the effects on Pac would be way different imo.

    Danny Garcia is a good fighter. I understand his last opponent was not great, but Danny had tremendous poise and looked solid defensively. The kid is a very good fighter and should not be underestimated.

    Prior to this fight I thought Thurman would win, but Thurman can't afford to make many mistakes against this guy. Danny is always looking to land a power punch and Thurman has shown that he can sometimes be in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    It's a very difficult fight. Thurman should approach this fight very cautiously and neglect to engage Danny whenever possible.

    I understand what you're saying but the impression that you are trying to put out is that the man was out cold and he wasn't hence the ruling TKO. You can use the word knockout but only in a technical sense. When a man is knocked out cold, then it's considered a KO not a TKO. The fight was stopped because the man had taken too much punishment and deemed unfit to continue not because he was sleeping on the floor.

    Rios was 160+ pounds, in the best shape of his life, and hadn't been knocked out before.

    Paulie is a durable fighter. A prime 140 pound Cotto couldn't knock him out. Hatton couldn't either until the ref decided to stop it, so I'd say because Danny couldn't KO Paulie sooner than Porter, that doesn't really mean anything. Bradley stopped Rios, and Pac couldn't, does that mean Bradley punches harder than Pac?

    This. Thurman's inside game isn't that great and he doesn't seem to like pressure, but he is fast on his feet and has quick hands. I see it as a 50/50 fight.

    I think Garcia finds a way to beat Brook, since Brook doesn't have Thurman's speed or footwork. Garcia is also more accurate than Porter. Brook has a decent jab, but his lack of quality competition has really caught up with him.
