    I think we are being harsh on both fighters who are young undefeated champions before they face one another.

    Informer24 is a boxer and appreciates the subtle skills involved and I have to support what he said. It was not a classic but it was good quality world class boxing.

    Comparing these guys with Leonard/Hearns or Tito/ODH is impossible more Curry/McCrory.

    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Thurman did what he needed to get the win. I would have liked to see him stand and trade more but that would have been disadvantage to his game plan. Garcia needed to light a fire under his as* earlier. He needed to rough Thurman up, go to the body more and cut of the ring to minimize Thurman's movement. I hope both guys continue to seek out the best opposition from here going forward.

    I agree that we shouldn't be comparing them to ATGs. My statement is that Thurman has shown even more weaknesses than I originally thought. I have been more impressed with him in previous fights. This fight wasn't all that impressive for either fighter.

    And for the record, I enjoyed the fight. Even though they both lack certain things in their arsenal, they are both obviously high class fighters who do many things well.

    I don't mean to sound so negative. I think both men gave their all and I'm glad two guys at the top got into the ring. Just, I think we all knew everyone if they were going to unify would like to start with Garcia. He was widely considered the weakest champion and for good reason. Just, I think the fight really displayed more of the weaknesses than it showed the strengths.

    Thurman showed he is a lot to handle for the first couple rounds with his speed and power.

    And we say Garcia should have turned up the heat, but Thurman deserves credit that he did not. Thurman did enough early to keep Danny respectful.

    And how would Danny turn up the heat anyway? Danny is slow of foot. His style is not to press because he doesn't have the feet for it. His style is to make the other fighter come to him and use his strength, his timing.

    It will take someone with better feet to beat Thurman because Thurman has no issues with turning a fight into a stinker. It would just be nice if he didn't have to do that so often.

    beautifully hued, borrowing from Anderson's ... Thurman spends half of the movie in night gown-like silky dresses, and the other in expensive sweaters and Wellies. ... One of last night's top looks.
