The REAL main event was awesome
Two skilled warriors, going toe-to-toe.... giving as good as they got. Thank God for the Garcia-Matthysse fight, because the "other" fight was nothing but a one-sided schooling.... a humiliation.... another reminder as to how gullible we as boxing fans are, that we believe the hype of a fight and it turns out to be nothing but a mismatch.
No shame for Garcia OR Matthysse, who never stopped trying throughout the 12 rounds. Even when the eye was completely shut, Lucas kept coming forward and throwing bombs. He has more power than Danny and more handspeed.... but Danny takes him on boxing skills and ring generalship.
Hell of a fight. Made me feel not so bad watching the boring mismatch on the main event.
Re: The REAL main event was awesome
Danny Garcia is to be congratulated. Many people did not give him a realistic chance against the hard-punching Matthysse. But he surprised those people, and gave a hugely positive account of himself. Can't wait for the rematch if there is one.

congrats to Danny Garcia, I was totally wrong I thought Lucas Mathysse would take him out early, I never thought highly of Danny Garcia before. Wow!:o

Thing is... two of Danny's most recognizable wins had come against Erik Morales (washed up and over the hill), and Amir Khan (suspect chin). So some people were not convinced. But this victory was damned impressive. Especially when you consider many people thought Danny was scared to fight Lucas.

So True Tito! I was one of the nonbelievers;D
Re: The REAL main event was awesome
I picked Garcia to win on points, Garcia dominated the 2nd half of the fight I like Garcia but he should stay well clear of mayweather, I would like to see him fight broner next
Re: The REAL main event was awesome
Garcia-Broner would be a damn good fight.
