    Small or not, Danny is, or at least was, a world-class operator. Lubin has nothing outside of a big left hand. He's one of the dumbest fighters I've ever seen. Horrible defense. Dodgy chin. Shit stamina. The list goes on. The typical leap ammy.

    Lubin never improved after that embarassment against Charlo.

    Danny has lost to Thurman, Porter, and Spence. Meaning that you need to be a good-to-very good fighter to beat him. Lubin is shit. He's essentially Sechew Powell with more power. Now maybe he does beat Garcia because Danny is smaller, and getting old. However, all I said is that it wouldn't be much of a surprise to me if Garcia won.

    Bro I didn't even say with confidence that Danny would win. Just said it wouldn't be much of a stretch, as he's a good fighter and Lubin isn't.

    Lubin would open as a substantial favorite if the fight gets made at 154lbs. Despite being inactive and coming off a savage beating

    It’s actually happening. On the Canelo vs Berlanga card.

    I agree. Khan was looking like Floyd Mayweather vs Canelo before he got flatlined. Means nothing.

    It wasnt a 4 rounds fight. It was a 12 rounds fight that ended in the 4th. To use Larry Merchant analogy, being in front after 1km of a marathon means nothing

    I still can’t believe we’re really going to see old ass Erislandy Lara and washed up undersized Danny Garcia fighting. Hoping we get at least a somewhat interesting fight.

    Prime Lara would 12-0 Danny, if not KO him. It's probably the worst style matchup I can think of for Danny. I think this version of Lara probably will too but it's hard to know where he is right now.

    Why was danny so keen on fighting lara? Seems like it's been his goal for three years. I guess when you consider the other guys around this division, maybe it makes sense.

    He thought he could get through the fight without getting hurt and have a nice cashout fight. It was a dream come through that he got the fight right before the main event on a big Canelo card. Probably pocketed 1 mill+ for doing nothing all night, taking a weak looking punch and getting his dad to stop it.

    Garcia thought it was his easiest chance at another title and a cash out like xplosive mentioned earlier
