    Garcia got outboxed by an ancient Morales.

    Peterson makes pretty much everyone look bad except Matthysse of course

    Garcia is still the same fighter

    Hes always been beatable

    You should have taken that beating instead and sent back to your family in a garbage bag.

    Source?

    Garcia would get outboxed by Brook & Thurman.

    Papa Garcia said it.

    Garcia's face would look like a baboon's ass by the time Brook and Thurman had finished with it. Easy work.

    Like Alexander, they peaked very early with a couple big wins. Will never live up to the career trajectory it appeared as though they were on.

    After this fight, how badly would Terence Crawford beat Garcia?

    Also, Garcia is absolutely terrible at cutting off the ring.

    Thurman would piece Garcia up, stop him late. Peterson landed some bombs on Garcia late in the fight and if he had any power, Danny would have at least tasted the canvas.

    A word of warning. Don't ever :patsch me again, OK. You've got a lot of nerve doing that to me. I'm the last person on here you want to or should be doing that to.

    That was your polite warning.

    And FTR, I'm well aware how the injury to his eye occurred. :patsch

    He was never brilliant even though Mathysse was a great win.

    He struggled with Theoplane, Holt and Morales. Old Judah had good spells against him. Garcia struggles when his opponents don't stand and trade with him and isn't good enough yet at walking opponents down. He is too left hook reliant and needs to develop his jab and right hand more.
