Danny Garcia v Jose Benavidez

[Spicoli]

Oh Ranced dropped hard in 6th, up and ref waves it off . Corner going nutty. What was that ref

[Spicoli]

Hard right off the forehead, up at 4, takes walk totally stable and faces ref who takes gloves, wipes them off and then just flat fookin stops it

That was a whole different type of robbery. Complete terrible stoppage

[Spicoli]

This is why officials need to be held responsible live and made accountable. Ref dodges interview with Jim Gray right off. Russell's a good dude and kd was big but two in a row with pretty questionable stoppages. He's a world class fighter not some obscure padding work "matter of time"

Evening chaps.

This is shaping up to be a really good fight here. (Main event.)

[Kirkland Laing]

Benavidez now just plodding forward and not throwing nearly enough. Making Garcia look good. Unless Garcia walks into something it's going to be an easy points win for him. The first few rounds were much more competitive.

[Kirkland Laing]

Benavidez did much better in the ninth and won the round but couldn't keep it going to full round.

[Kirkland Laing]

The first few rounds were better than I expected. The rest of it was pretty much what I expected. Benavidez looked a really good prospect and I thought he'd have an elite career but he's pretty much done now. Need to see Garcia against somebody at the top of the division but while Charlo is still in the division he isn't going to win a belt.

gary antuanne russell gets his second suspect stoppage in a row. i like what i see but are they trying to fudge that knockout rate? female judge scores danny v jose a draw? danny won wide. he looked fluid & quick but the pop is not there at one fifty four. jose was never the same after getting shot. ali eren demirezen & adam kownacki threw a whole bunch of punches. entertaining stuff. ali is just a better fighter

Danny is too small at 154 and not nearly athletic enough. At 140 he was a fundamentally sound counter puncher with decent size and good power in his left hook. At 147 he was a smallish counter puncher who still had good technique but was not athletic enough to beat the elite of the weight class. At 154 he’s going to be destroyed by second tier fighters- Benavides looked huge compared to Danny and has slipped significantly since his fight vs Crawford (when he could be considered second or third tier). Charlo destroys him and likely ends his career- that one would be ugly.

that female judge who scored the fight a draw has had some terrible cards in her time
