Whats wild is that he is actually injured and cant fight nobody of note until after a tuneup fight...he sounds like he is ducking when he talks though and thats his problem

Man 'Keiff' has been feeling himself way too much. I had much more respect for him before the belt(s) when he was hungry. This nigga is straight hollywood now. Smh


Keith is smart with what he said, he needs a tune up fight before he fight Shawn again. That makes the most sense on his part. Shawn is a bitch for wanting that man to fight him after just being off for awhile. I guess Shawn feels like that would be the easiest way to possibly beat him cause he might be rusty from just coming back.

This 'sufferin succotash' ass nigga is officially food. He got random joes walking up on him like that. Two years ago, whoever thought this would be possible? :giggle:


Nah. It happens to the smaller dudes. I remember Floyd was at a fast food joint in Vegas and some dude and his girl walked up on him talking reckless.

LOL! I think Garcia can beat anybody in the Welter not named Spence, Crawford, Brook, Porter or Thurman.
I think Spence beats everybody currently at 147 but you're selling Garcia a little short. I believe with the exception of Spence, Garcia is capable of beating everyone on your list. Thurman didn't exactly walk through Garcia, and one judge thought Garcia won, I thought Thruman won a close decision but he definitely didn't beat him convincingly enough to say Thurman beats him every time. As far as Crawford, nearly every fight I've seen him in he gets hit hard and flush but so far he's been tagged by smaller men, Garcia is one of the best counter punchers in the game right now and if he catches Crawford as cleanly as he's been caught in the past then it's night night Crawford.

If Brook is still a welter then Garcia can beat him. His face is fragile and we don't know how that will affect him mentally. I can see Garcia beating Porter as well.

He ain't beating Spence or Thurman and I need to see Crawford take a punch from a legit welter before I make my decision on him. Skill-wise Garcia loses to him.

Everyone gets mush mouth when talking about Spence. Two fights that would be action packed are Spence vs Porter and Spence vs Garcia. Let the latter happen along with Thurman vs Porter 2. Once Crawford beats Horn and survives Pacquiao this will start to shake out.

Porter vs Garcia would be a great bronze division match up. Spence vs Thurman with the winner getting the Arum belt match. Now you have an undisputed champ along with great matches and money.

Kahn could kick rocks or fight Brook for UK bragging rights. Spence then moves up vs Canelo and keeps pushing. Thurman, Porter, Garcia, Crawford could keep fighting so long as they are respectable.

What did you see in the first fight that tells you Garcia has no chance of beating Thurman? I saw nothing in his fight with Garcia or Porter that tells me either man couldn't beat him in a rematch.

Handspeed. This man's hands were surprisingly fast. His movement was better too. People that get knocked out by Danny are stupid enough to exchange with him. Thurman punched and got out.

Am I missing something here? Did Porter beat someone of note lately? Dudes running around jumping in rings and making videos like he beat Floyd or something.

I'm not sure if I saw much of a hand speed advantage for Thurman in that fight but I'll concede that it's true, even with that advantage he won a close split decision. It's not like he ran away with the fight, in fact in the last few rounds of the fight he was in retreat. Like I said before I think Spence beats all current welters and Crawford is unproven at 147, as far as the rest, I believe on any giving night, Thurman, Porter, Garcia, and Brook are all capable of beating each other.

I can't stand seeing porter fight at all.

Garcia is food for all the top welters, only thing going for him is that granite chin and counter left hook with his eyes closed. He's too flat footed, give him a little lateral movement and he's lost.

In his last two fights, he's beaten, Adrian Granados and Andre Berto both of whom are better than Rios. Garcia could have fought Porter Saturday but instead handpicked Brandon Rios. Who would you rather Porter call out Mike Alverado? Why are you criticizing a top five welter for trying to drum up interest in a fight with another top five welter?

He gotta smother Wilder. Trap his arms, catch his shots. Anything at a distance, he cant deal with. Wilder lose power on the inside. He needs a lot of room to setup and execute. If he can stay on the inside, tie him and up cut the ring off, he can get off some Tyson-like work to the body, then up to the head. But he gotta dig to the body while coming forward, forehead on Wilder's chest as he digs.

Because he’s acting like people are ducking him

Ortiz has the reach advantage though.

Wilder should win...Ortiz been on Less and now he is clean....and he is older than listed plus very slow....something about the way Wilder running his mouth though...I know he marketing himself but man does he talk a lot....those dudes have a way of getting embarrassed a lot of time...lets me say this, Wilder can't get caught flush like he has been in some recent fights against Ortiz...Wilder has the speed and the jab...should be able to stay on the outside and jab his way to a comfortable decision or try to light him up in the later rounds

If Wilder gets sloppy Ortiz makes him pay, and most likely gets him outta there. A far less skilled and powerful Molina had Wilder in some trouble, so I can easily see Ortiz, the much heavier man, hurting and dropping Wilder if he lands clean.

If Wilder (and that is a huge if) can keep this fight on the outside, he should win. Ortiz is highly skilled, but has little to no mobility. Wilder should be able to pepper Ortiz with jabs, use his feet, and cruise to a decision.

Hard to pick fight, but I'm apprehensively rolling with Ortiz. The Ortiz vs Jennings fight and Wilder's fight vs Washington are my determining factors.
