Is he moving up? I don't see much success at 154 for Danny. He was second tier at WW, and will be greatly undersized at 154.
Danny needs to think about retirement. He's had a great career and made some decent money. He has a good chin but I'd hate to see it get cracked at 154.
Like everyone is saying 154 is a bridge too far. He's had a very solid career and I'd rather see him go out with a mid level win or two rather than a ko beating
If Danny goes back to being Cherry Garcia, he could have a relatively long decent run at 154. Even with some of the top tier guys, he has a chance. The division is profoundly overrated. I'll highlight in red the winnable fights for him there, in pink the maybes, light pink... slight maybe possibly with dodgy scorecards. 1 Jermell Charlo 2 Brian Carlos Castano This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected 11 Sebastian Fundora This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected 19 Julian Williams This content is protected 21 Israil Madrimov This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected This content is protected
At first, I thought it was nuts, but then I realized that 154 is...not a garbo division, but not that good, either. He can't beat Jermell, but Jermell won't be sticking around for very long anyway, and it's otherwise full of guys he has at least a shot at cracking with his left hook.
Good point. But I have to wonder how he'll hold up against bigger and stronger guys. His KO's at 147 aren't completely impressive, but he has shown the ability to crack. But I can't help but look at someone like Shane Mosley. Was a top WW early on (With help of course), but brought no power to 154.
