Robert Guerrero Danny Garcia

clubwelly

This one's on tonite for the 147 wbc title.

Be interesting to see if Garcia carries his power up and if Guerrero can catch him at all. He hasn't looked good in his last two fights.

Also been surprised that both fathers haven't hogged the limelight more. Usually ya cant shut them up

I'd go with Garcia but I know nothing about this.

What time's it likely to be on, 4am job?

Would stay up if it was on at around 2

This is a WILD heavyweight fight between Breazeale and Mansour.
Gotta love Mansour's no-nonsense way of fighting, it's just swing for the fences.
Looks in fantastic shape for 43.

Mansour just quit in his corner between round 5 and 6.
Not sure why, but his cornerman is disgusted while the other is holding an icepack to his cheek/neck. I wonder is there some injury we're not sure of?

He definitely was feeling the pace, as he put everything into finishing it early, but he was well ahead on points....

Strange.

Guerrero looks good in the first.
I'm fully expecting this to be close.
I really think Garcia is overrated.

Garcia definitely pulling away, but the commentary team are seriously overstating the whole 'Guerrero's team should be thinking of pulling him out'. Are you f*cking serious??? He hasn't been rattled once.

As for Danny Garcia being a "one punch KO artist".... really?? Outside of the very chinny Amir Khan, who was still on his feet after a round and a half of being continuously punched and an absolutely shot Erik Morales, who the hell has Garcia actually stopped at a high level?

I have it 116-112. Garcia definitely won that fight.

You should be a judge!

Mora claiming Guerrero didn't win a round was nuts.

Garcia has one of the best resumes based on names only, but a lot of those are suspect for a number of reasons.

Guerrero, Paulie, Morales x2, Judah are massive names to have an on your resume but all were well past their best. Then you have the dodgy decisions like the Peterson fight, but still, it's another massive name to have on your list. Nevertheless though his wins against Khan and Matthysse are legit and are two more incredible names to have.

I actually like Danny Garcia. I think his fights are always well worth watching and he's a nice fighter. It's just a pity his father is such a prick.

Some may say the Khan fight was a bit lucky as Khan was up on the cards clearly but the result was always inevitable. His win against Matthysse is awfully overlooked. Matthysee was literally a machine back then and Danny took all his punches superbly and beat him clearly, albeit being a close one.

Yeah I'm the same as pac_man just wanna see Garcia give a bit more.
I dunno if Amir Khan should be so keen to fight him again. Garcia has gotten more experienced since their first fight and I'd be confident Garcia will catch him on the chin again.

Thought the commentary was a joke alrite but it's the same when you have "Top Rank tv commentators" on a top rank card always favouring their preferred fighter

Here's the fight in full if anyone missed it

So it seems most people here will be tipping Thurman to beat Garcia if they face each other in the future. Personally, i think some are being overcritical of Garcia, that said i don't think he's good enough to beat Thurman.
