Danny Garcia vs. Erik Morales II - Saturday night fight thread

[Master]

One thing i don't get about people saying about the Malignaggi fight about it being fixed, or that Cano should have won the title or how Malignaggi needed to win to fight Hatton or something...

did it escape everyone that Cano didn't make weight came in overweight, had time to lose it but decided not to and that Malignaggi would never have lost his title regardless? Because I'm watching the fight now and that's mostly what they are talking about.

Also thought I'd see more criticism of it.

I was wondering why it was a non title fight, that explains it.

Garcia has devastating power, he would wreck Khan.

He did mate

He's really getting some stink on his shots isnt he. Would like to see him (as the fighter he is now) against someone who isnt an accident waiting to happen as Khan and Morales were.

I meant if Khan fought him straight away, Khan needs to settle with his new trainer and learn his densive skills and regain some confidence. Then he can come back and beat Garcia.

I disagree Master, if Garcia fights Khan again it will end quicker then it did the first time. Khan isn't going to get any better then what he already is, that's just being realistic.

Alexander / Bailey will be unlikely to make fight of the year and even Devon's ability to hug his way to a victory seemed diminished, maybe because of his limited opponent. Brook could handle the challenge comfortably if the IBF make Kell Alexander's mandatory. Quillin Ndam was chalk and cheese compared to the opener and was wildly entertaining. 8 knock downs with an opponent still in it come the final round is not to be sniffed at. Is Ndam unknockoutable ? Or has kid chocolate got a lower cocoa content than we thought? Less powder on his cappuccino. Great to see Tyson in Brooklyn and his words seemed to ignite the powder keg below Peter Quillin.

[Memphis]

I think Quillan could have got him out of there but Bunce was dead right, he was unsure of his tank fighting at that clip.

I thought Quillan was out boxed for most of the fight and I was disappointed in him.

[Memphis]

I saw it the other way mate. I thought any success N'Dam had was because Quillan allowed it. Quillan handed him at least 3 rounds on a silver plater. I thought he fought smart.

I liked him.

I give credit to N'Dam because he said he wanted to make a name for himself in the States and IMO he did that. He fought hard... survived multiple knockdowns... and won himself some rounds. Not bad for a fighter from a country not exactly known for its professional boxing prowess. On the other side, Quillin showed a lot of poise... even when his hand speed looked significantly less than N'Dam's. He showed some good power and ring generalship. I thought maybe he could've ended the fight earlier had he pressed the action after some of those KD's.
