    I keep reading that Garcia is an easy win for Floyd but no explanations of why?
    Garcia hits harder than Floyd,takes a better punch than Floyd can give.
    Garcia is 10 years younger,and is in his prime.
    Garcia has good skills and as far as the weight,Garcia and Floyd weighed the same on sept 14th so it would seem that at 147 Garcia would weigh more than Floyd on fight night.
    So again I ask why is Garcia not good enough to give Floyd a real fight?

    Danny is very, very good so I wouldn't totally write him off but the thing is Floyd is on another level to most fighters so Danny would have to show something exceptional to beat him. I'd love to see Garcia do it but it's just so unlikely when you look objectively at both fighters.

    he has good skills, and is getting better with every fight, but he is only an A, while Floyd is A+++ in terms of skill, also, he throws too many wide punches and too slow on his feet

    He's not tested at 147 and his countering style will result in a fight similar to Mayweather/Marquez. I'm a huge Garcia fan as I am a Mayweather fan but Mayweather's style is simply wrong for Garcia.

    He's small and would be totally out-boxed.

    If he pressures Mayweather and creates anxiety throughout the entire fight while being able to eat some punches, he has a shot. If he tries to counter/outbox Mayweather, it would be Alvarez/Mayweather repeat.

    I understand all of your points but who is better than Garcia?
    If Floyd would outclass Danny,who would give Floyd a good fight?
    I doubt that Khan,Alexander,Brook,Broner,or even Pac would be able to outclass Garcia.
    So all I am saying is Danny has a better chance than most other fighters, right?

    Put it this way - I'd pay to watch the fight, I just wouldn't expect him to win. I think he's a valid opponent.

    garcia should really be the one getting the next shot, detroyed khan who ridiculously is being primed for mayweather, beat the "indescrutable matthyse", no one wants to see mayweather vs khan or even marquez again if he beats timmy

    decent fight a guy whe is top of his division is young, strong vbut thats what they said about canelo and look what happened, mayweather has a habbit of making world class fighters look so ordinary

    he's a good fighter but Ithink he gets stopped

    garcia is a mid range hooker/ counter puncher. if he attempts to fight at that rnage floyd would systemcalliy break him down and possibily stop him.

    garcia is a gut boxer, with decent hand speed, but he throws to many looping shots, and he also fight to flat footed, and he is not that gut of cutting of the ring

    Bringing pressure is excatly what he wouldn't do and is the worst gameplan. Garcia would do better than most people think by not following Floyd and making the fight come to him.

    Struggled with Judah, Morales I, Matthyse. These guys are not Floyd level. Danny would be humiliated against Floyd.

    Mayweather struggled with Judah. Morales was given too much respect in the first fight. He was no match at all for a Garcia who had grown in confidence.
