Swift hook knock ya eyebrows off..Right Cross only takes one time: Garcia vs Thurman 147 unification

[Skip b]

Fight was a 7-5 either way draw type fight...Neither guy stood out and a stand out fight

If u fighting a bytch nikka content on running stand back and let him come to u, instead of walking into pots shots...Irritating when Garcia is superb off the back foot already

If Angel ain't call people nikkas and immigrants Danny would have got more love and won more rounds

 

[FaTaL]

Neither of these guys are anywhere near Floyds level

Floyd is 40

1 out of the 3 who mattered said Garcia won the fight, which everyone objectively knows didn't happen.
Seems like you can't even formulate as to how Garcia won, you just are gonna roll with the judges said and not explain and thats cool if that is what you are about, just understand why someone who isn't a casual would not understand what you are talking about.



De La Hoya was robbed.
Most fights at high level are in the hands of the judges, fact is there is scoring criteria and movement isn't a negative. You want to see guys go in the middle of the ring and just hit each other go watch toughman.
His corner told him to box and not get reckless.
How anyone thinks he could have lost by outboxing Garcia tells me you don't know much about boxing.

Bruh, that nikka was running man

You don't get points for running.. Boxing is about moving, circling to get in or out of a certain situation, stepping aside, pivoting, reverse pivoting, etc.

This nikka literally ran for noticeable periods of time at the end.. Thats the MAIN reason he lost those rounds besides barely doing shyt...


And yeah its the job of the fighter to cut the ring off but guess what... You still don't get no points for running and not doing shyt else

Fans don't like it, judges don't like it (see Lara vs. Canelo), and your peers don't really like it.

Thurman was wayyyy more active in the last couple rds than Oscar was againt Tito.

Oscar literally fukking ran on some please don't hurt me Mister big bad Rican boxer type shyt.

Thurman coasted, but he still landed good shots and made Garcia respect him.

I thought Oscar beat Tito, and Im a bigger fan of Trinidad than Oscar, but the way he fought the last couple rounds, he didnt deserve to win. maybe a draw, but not a win.

You gotta hold ya own nuts during them championship rounds b.

I had it 7-5 for Thurman he came in with the gameplan and executed it. Threw bombs in the 1st round to get some respect and make sure Garcia doesn't want to rush in afterwards and Worked on messing up Garcia's timing in the proceeding rounds. Danny has one hell of a chin Thurman's power isn't like Wilder, GGG but he can punch and Garcia recovered well enough from the 1st round.


Here's my thing when people talk about a fighter is running though..it's your job to catch him then nikka so get to work. Cut the ring off and skillfully apply the pressure. Garcia needed more rounds like the 10th to win this fight. Good fight though.

garcia won the rounds when thurman ran
did he blow him away those rounds?
no, but if we are scoring a 12 round fight, round by round, then its not a good idea to run away the last 3
there were no 10-8 rounds
which means the rounds thurman dominated were the scored in the same fashion as the rounds garcia barely sweaked out
fight was 7-5
could of easily been a draw
garcias body work caught up to thurman and he was tired as fukk

There's boxing which Keith did 75% of the fight N then there's the shyt he did at the end of the fight

You like that shyt cool it is what it is...I never score for anyone if he's obviously coasting N excessively

Rd 12 Thurman landed right to open the round... He lands a clean jab...after that he nothing much...

So the next 2 minutes Swift was moving forward throwing punches while Keith


Then Swift catches Thurman on the ropes a 3 or 4 punch combo near the end of the rd

So the same way Keith stole early RDS by being more busy/landing shyt towards the end of the round...Swift did the same shyt in the 12th

 

[Electric Ladyland]

clear win for Thurman

 

[Los!]

ONE TIME !!!!!

You don't get point for moving forward and throwing, you actually have to land.
Swift didn't catch Thurman on the ropes it was blocked.
There is no stealing a round when you don't land shyt.

Bruh, that nikka was running man

He was boxing and using movement.
He never ran at any time.
Actually you do get points for making the match follow your gameplan, again its called ring generalship.

Bruh... Majority of the judges didn't give him points for it though


Dude was running but whatever


And that wasn't ring generalship


And the same way Thurman stole rounds and looked like the busier fighter (despite Danny being more accurate with less punches) Danny won those rounds by forcing the nikka to fight and looking as the aggressor where Thurman was either tired or just hell bent on trying to coast and throw pot shot jabs

 

[George's Dilemma]

Did Thurman call Danny a boy when he walking towards the wrong corner?

"Its over there boy."

 

[Pimp]

You don't understand father time.. Bernard Hopkins didn't lose to people who were better than him, they just outpointed him with activity.. Thurman is fast enough to look good against floyd..

 

[LauderdaleBoss]

Garcia needed to bob and weave and jab his way in, close his distance and let them hands go. I feel like he could win a rematch if he changed his approach. That and him being a slow starter hurt him.

Thurman was the better boxer, so he stole those lulls with jabs and movement, whereas Swift would look better when he threw combos and worked the body. Swift definitely lost. He needed to go for broke and he never did. I said earlier in this very thread that Thurman should use both of Peterson and Herreras strengths to win this and he did. He pressured and bombed on Swift early (like Lamont did late in their fight) and neutralized him late like Herrera did in their fight with movement and jabs He just added his own lil adjustments to it.

If Spence handles Brook (which isnt a given cuz Kell is no push over) he has the right style to really get at Thurman. He'll pressure like Porter and go to the body like Swift, but he'll do it behind a consistent jab and overwhelm Thurman when he tries to get on his roller skates. Its still a tough fight because Keith throws bombs from just about everywhere but he he has his flaws. That nikka was literally trying to edge out every round on some Floyd shyt. Dude knew what he was doing.

You gotta win each round against Keith. That nikka knows whats up. He'll survive those late surges and rallies once he gets that lead.

 

[H.I.M.]

8-4 Thurman

Fight was looking like it was gonna be a classic...until Thurman ate a couple hard body shots in the 4th i think it was.

Glass body...when Spence put them thangs on his torso

 

[GzUp]

I had it 12-0 Thurman
