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.
who would you consider a second tier fighter at one fifty four that would destroy danny?
I feel like Swift Hurd has fallen a tier or two and I feel like walks through and demolishes Danny due to the size difference. I would bet on Tim Tszyu blowing Danny out at 154. I like Danny- I admire his work ethic, his heart, his mental toughness, and his skill in the ring. I just feel that 154 is all wrong for him for so many reasons. I remember when Meldrick Taylor fought Terry Norris at 154- both were great fighters but Norris blew him out. It was brutal. Benavidez is a blown up 140 pounder and looked bigger and walked tHrough his punches- I feel like a full blown jr middle blows him out.
is jarrett still at one fifty four & is he even still fighting? i'd take danny. i don't class timmy as second tier
jarrett v danny, loser drops the nickname. speaking of jarrett hurd i think jeison rosario would be a good matchup for him
