    Garcia was swinging and missing. Lamont showed his blackness and had to much rhythm for Garcia. Garcia was the guy in the club holding up the wall, while lamont was in the middle of the dance floor with a crowd around him.

    Lamont whooped dGarcia ass, I guarantee garcia wants no parts of a rematch

    It seems Garcia is the house fighter that they want to keep undefeated and set up for Floyd Mayweather.

    I have not seen the fight but this looks like a marketing ploy to keep Garcia relevant.

    Had to fix it . Seriously though, the catchweight charade Garcia is apart of lastnight and with Matthysse, the mismatch Salka set-up job...it just doesn't pass the smell test. Then he says he'll rematch Peterson but it has to be 147 ffs.

    I have always supported Danny Garcia but I'm starting to think that he is just holding the belt for someone else...?

    Broner has recently called out Garcia so hopefully we can iron out the best at 140 before Garcia leaves the division.

    After floyd beats manny twice this year a fight with Garcia could be his 50th fight early 2016.

    Garcia has to show he completely owns this division!

    It was a pretty close fight, if Peterson would have come with a bit more pressure right at the start of the fight, he would have gotten it. In my opinion, it is a bad decision but I wouldn't go as far as a robbery.

    It was a robbery.

    Garcia got worked over.

    He didn't win enough rounds.

    I agree. I don't see how Garcia won that fight. Even if you score generously you can't give Garcia enough rounds to deserve the W.

    If you think it's close then just watch and decide which fighter would you have rather been in that fight. I'd be Peterson because Garcia was clueless and got embarrassed, whilst Peterson dictated everything.

    Tough call cause Peterson came out strong in the second half but gave away rounds in the first. Not sure which round (maybe 11) but Peterson may have earned a 10-8 round when he had Garcia rock.

    I thought Peterson should of won but Garcia getting the decision is hard to argue with. Close fight.

    I think it is a bit severe here; to me, a robbery is when it is litterally VERY obvious that one of the fighter won and the other lost. It wasn't SO obvious here. I think that it is a bad decision, that Peterson did deserve the win, but a Robbery is of another magnitude.

    Few thoughts on this fight:
    1. This reminded me of the Hop vs Taylor fight where Hop minimized his output early, but was still controlling the fight and landing the cleaner punches before coming on to dominate late. I think Hop dominated Taylor more that Peterson dominated Garcia, but the flow was similar in my opinion.
    2. I stand by my statements/feelings that Garcia is overrated and will lose to the first elite fighter he faces who takes him seriously. He has decent power and solid boxing skills, but is not fast enough to be world class in my opinion.
    3. Peterson lost this fight more than Garcia beat him. Whatever you think about the decision (I would've given it to Peterson), Peterson spent more time moving laterally than throwing punches with bad intentions and judges rarely reward those tactics. I feel he is the better fighter but managed to find a way to lose again.

    I have watched the fight and I think Peterson was far too negative to be given any of the earlier rounds. Garcia was calling him to fight in the 4th and anyone can run. Peterson was not landing until 8th and did put on a beating but that was too late. Peterson deserved to lose.

    Showed his Blackness? Does that mean Garcia wasn't showing his Puerto Ricaness?
