Despite his clowning outside the ring, Angel Garcia is a pretty good trainer imo. The man is smart. I realized this while watching the fights against Khan and Judah. He was telling Danny exactly what to do and his voice was very clear and direct. Trainers need to have this quality and Angel has it.
With the right game plan, Danny can win and I really wouldnt even consider it as an upset if he did.. BAsed on many peoples opinions though, it seems like Mythesse is some kinda massive favorite lol which I dont understand but this is a 50-50 fight in my eyes..
Danny has be the boxer in this fight. He has to box from distance and slug in spurts when he sees openings.
How great can Mythesse be? he got beat by Zab and lost 3x or something like that to Maidana as an amatuer although that was long ago. Still doesn't change the fact that he can be beat by more than one..
Im gonna have to go with Garcia on this. I think he is naturally bigger and stronger and will muscle Mythesse on the inside.

Golden Boy announced media call w/ Richard Schaefer for Thurs afternoon for 'major fight announcement.' Garcia-Matthysse is probably done.
I hope youre right cuz Id like to see Danny win but Mathysse is a beast and i can picture him mauling Danny if the fight is fought at close range. Dannys advantage lies in his timing. Mathysse comes straight at you but Danny has a talent of timing his shots and walking opponents onto his punches. That where hes at his best Imo and you could say Mathysse style plays into his hands but it works both guys cuz Lucas will prefer a guy who doesnt run
Really tough fight to call at this point although im leaning slightly towards Danny who i believe will come in with the right gameplan. Might have to come through hell to pull it out though
Cant wait to see the comments IF danny wins!
I'm going with Matthysse in the 1st half. I think Garcia is too easy to hit and with a guy like Matthysse that's not really an option.
This will be interesting for the Saddo boxing league!
I'm not going to say that garcia is technically superior cuz he doesn't really have a jab but he does have exceptional timing on his punches and is the better body puncher.
Lucas punches like a mule but I've never seen him taking one from sokmebody who punches just as hard.
They both are made for one another in a sense that both look at it's a best against comeforward opponents so to me this is about who can take the best punch and who can better better dish out as much as they take without getting hurt.
Garcia isn't going to find it difficult to time lucas cuz hell often be within punching range vice versa so it all comes down to punch resistance.
The great thing about Matthysse is that while most fall in love with his power, he seemingly does not. He is actually a very calculating and thinking boxer-puncher. Methodical accumulative and not load up crazy radical. He's going to stop Danny in his tracks with jabs to the body well before he stops him for good with power shots to the head. Love this match!
1st lines up for this. 4/9 Matthysse 2/1 Garcia. Sound about right to me.
