    Maybe he was talking at 154? I doubt he would say such an absurdity since they were talking a few minutes earlier that Benitez was the youngest ever

    I think CanYellow was younger. Perhaps Nando also.

    Matt Hilton was also 21 when he won the 154 title.

    So he'll break his achilles in the sixth round and proceed to get knocked out of the ring in the 11th?

    Official pick- Garcia, pretty easy. Thurman NOT confident here. Garcia has been through tougher dudes.

    Thurman has landed some big shots but Garcia still looks pretty relaxed.

    Yeah. Great fight so far. Thirman's right hand getting there quicker than Garcia's left-hook. Good work from both guys though.

    Thurman can land that big right with no jab or anything. Garcia's doing some good work to the body but he's behind now.

    Garcia behind for sure but hasn't expended as much energy.

    Garcia's face is going to be busted and swollen by the middle rounds. He's taking way too many power punches to the dome.

    Garcia is getting some good work done but hasn't been able to capitalize on Thurman's wild shots yet.

    Agreed. Nothing spectacular but solid. Thurman is starting to reach.

    Thurman's legs still have bounce but he's arm weary.

    I have a very wide scorecard for a fight that I feel Garcia is still in.

    I have it 79-73 for Thurman. There were a couple of really close rounds that I gave to Thurman because he was busier and had stunned Garcia. Though you could make a case for Garcia doing enough to win the round. I only gave him the sixth.

    Garcia could easily have 4 of the first 9 rounds depending on how its scored.

    Farhood has it 88-83 for Thurman. I have in 89-82. I had both Brook-Porter and Thurman-Porter 115-113 for the winners.
