    Floyd was never available. Remember that he already admiited that he would not negotiate with bob arum.

    I blame both parties involved. With that said, the time has come to face each other. Not necessarily for the fans, but for themselves. Remember years ago they both were doing fine (financially speaking) both were on top.
    But times have changed. Pacquiao has tax problems, Mayweather PPV numbers are not the same as years ago, and I know deep inside, as long as he lives, he knows the question will always be brought up "why the fight was never made?"
    Both fighters need this fight, to put the icing on the cake of their great careers.
    And Arum, he knows Pac is at the end of his career, he is a business man first. And he wants to cash out before Manny retires.
    Bottom line-up now or never.

    -Pac vs. Garcia at 140 would be enticing considering current options for Pac, I must say.

    -I doubt it happens. I would favor Pac pretty big even dropping to 140, but certainly less than I do against Algieri, for example.

    -Garcia has a proven great chin.

    -Matthysse is P4P among the strongest punchers in the game and Garcia stood up 12 rounds and took shots so anyone who says Garcia doesn't have a great chin is... odd.

    -Judah didn't hurt Garcia. All he did was help showcase the argument that Garcia's chin is battle tested and sturdy.

    -Garcia's fight against Herrera just exposed so much about him in a way that it's hard to see a way that he implements a good game plan against Pac. Against Pac, what hope does Garcia have either than just hoping for the best in exchanging hooks during a war?

    Pac is just on a different level to garcia even at this stage garcia is slow and pacs speed will cause him huge problems all the angles punchers in and out will be to much for this punk

    This would only be a good fight to me if Danny Garcia was getting some good wins right now. He lost to Herrera and the Salka fight was ****. 2014 is not Danny's year.

    So according to Pac_tards, Floyd vs. Garcia = Cherrypick but Pacquiao vs. Garcia = Fight of the Decade.


    Nice logic.

    Matthysse got full leverage on that right hand. Marquez almost got knocked down by Bradley and Bradley has great recovering ability, but he can be hurt and dropped just like Juan

    if you look closer, garcia was able to turn his head and saved his chin from absorbing the full effect of that punch.

    what you need to see is how he was unsteady he was against judah in the last 2 rounds.

    I looked, it seems the mouthpiece absorbed most of the impact by flying out of Garcia' mouth... You are an idiot, Garcia didn't turn his head, the punch did
