    Was you. Did Garcia do a funny dance or something? Human begins aren't meant to just take flush shots without any effect. Garcia took a shot and remained fine. Yeah he was cautious, but Judah can punch.

    Good point. It's because I've never seen Garcia in that state of danger.

    T'was in no danger. He ate lefts in the middle rounds and always
    fired back. In fact, since you didn't tune in and are just trolling
    the right that danny threw that put zab down was thrown
    instantly after danny got caught with a big left from super.
    If anything, Danny showed me he has a great beard.

    Ehh... Danny has more to worry about than a, as you called it, "weak chin." He could take a punch, but he ate too many shots in the championship rounds.

    Exposed his weak chin by barely phasing him from flush power shots?

    No.

    He backed off a bit , i didnt see him seriously hurt. Pretty one-sided fight overall.

    his chin isn't weak. I was actually impressed early on at how well he was taking the punches from Judah, but Judah did show it was crackable

    Garcia has one of the best chins in boxing. Very very very few 140lb fighters are going to take the type of flush shots he took from zab throughout that fight and show NO signs of being hurt.

    The very fact he was able to eat so many without any effect at all, and the ones he ate from Holt in their fight, points to how sturdy his chin is.

    Judah couldn't hurt Garcia at all early because his D was tight.

    After he hurt Zab bad in I think i was the 5-6, he widened up his arms considerably and there was a plenty big enough gap for Judah to find.

    Zab landed plenty of flush power punches in the first 6 rounds. Danny ate them without blinking, like he did with Holts.

    Garcia just has a good chin. But every chin will crack, and Zab was able to do it after landing enough.

    Danny better get some better defense because his chin wont last forever, and once it starts to go his effectiveness will be gone.

    I kinda disagree.

    In boxing everyone is going to get hit multiple times; so it's obvious he connected on Garcia.

    But Garcia was dominant in the first half and I really don't think Zab sat down on any of his punches until the 7th round. I really don't. He was flicking the double and triple jab and landing only one or two straights a round, none with any pop on them (also a factor in this would be that I feel Garcia rolled with the punches slightly early and in the last three rounds kept his head/neck straight, which always will make the punch both look better and have better effect).
