garcia looked the goods vs mathyse the way he let his hands go in combinations but that's the last time I was really impressed by him. I don't think he deserved the win vs Peterson and his career has been abit of a letdown since the promise he showed against Khan. An unbeaten record doesn't mean much when your not active or mixing with the best. Thurman is good on his feet and the better athlete. The 147 weight class suits him as we've not seen how Danny will cope with the top dogs at welter. His good work has been at 140

if Keith boxes a similar fight as he did vs porter I don't see Danny catching him. The danger will be if he tries to take Danny out. Garcia has great timing and is dangerous in exchanges. Keith's probably the more vulnerable of the two as I've seen him hurt to head and body by collazo and karras. I expect "one time" will box a disciplined fight and win a close 12 round decision
This sounds about right. I think Garcia will try to go to his body but his feet are slow as hell compared to Thurman. Thurman knows he can be hurt and will take no chances. He's going to land enough heavy shots on Garcia without going toe to toe with him.
