    Provodnikov for me. Garcia didn't beat the man to become the man and I'm fed up of this Golden Boy philosophy of "oh well I'm not fighting him because it will be tough and he's with another promoter."

    I believe most of the Garcia fandom comes second hand from Mayweather fans who want to see PBF get an easy fight so they are trying to build Garcia into something he isn't.

    Most feel Provodnikov beat Herrera and he has proved himself a lot recently.

    Garcia only has two really impressive wins, Khan and Matthysse and I felt he was lucky with the swelling Matthysse suffered that.

    On paper Herrera beat Provodnikov although most feel it was a robbery (I have yet to see it) and we all know he beat Garcia so he is in with a shout as well.

    Who you got?

    Not when he is talking how he needs to move up to 147 to rejuvenate his career. He's definitely not the man at 140 if he needed a "gift" decision vs El Maestro and if he had to starve himself to make the weight.

    Nobody. Wide open. If you want to go by a useless ring belt then Herrera err Garcia.

    There certain websites that scored the fight 114/114 DRAW

    Ive been seeing that same score a couple of times now .
    .

    I didnt sit down and score the fight . But from just watching round by round in my eyes Herrera won comfortably .

    Makes me want to carefully watch the fight again

    Most Margarito and Matthysse fans feel the way you do. Even Pac's fans. Only one thing. Nobody thinks that Danny could beat Floyd, and nobody think that Danny got lucky against Matthysse except the above mentioned.:lol:

    Herrera was more calculated than Garcia. Danny Garcia looked like a kid in a candy store whereas Herrera knew exactly what he was doing, breaking down the champ mentally and physically. He made Danny Garcia look like a schoolboy being taught algebra by the teacher, El Maestro. :yep

    Garcia became the man by beating Matthysse to unify the titles. He should move up to 147 and fight Provodnikov.
