Good fight. Great job by Garcia to keep his feet. Kid has heart.

im mad thurman is running the last few rounds instead of being aggressive like he was in the first half of this fight

Mayweather tactic.... why not

That was a huge factor in this fight.

Agreed

 

[GTA 809]

Thurman split decision.

What for. So he can get jerked like the rest and gift Danny the win?

Thurman got on his bicycle the last two rounds [emoji]128514[/emoji]

But you already know you won, you can't knock Danny Garcia out, it's a smart move especially when Garcia knows he needs a KO to win.

I hope Warren Beatty & Faye Dunaway aren't reading the judges' scorecards 

 

[lightweight champion]

Mayweather tactic.... why not

Because there were a few close rounds that could go either way. His aggression was something Garcia could not stop and DSG didn't do anything to show he could get Thurman out of there.

Hopefully the GGG fight doesn't disappoint

 

[illphillip]

This. And doesn't let his hands go/set his shots up enough.

 

[Mr.Guy]

Watch them gift wrap Swift the belt.

 

[mr highness]

Wow a split decision? WTF?????

 

[you go boy]

split decision lol... but im not surprised thurman won

 

[703 hwy]

Coulda went either way forreal

 

[dedafyats]

A robbery woulda been nice

 

[finessesosa]

Yes. It's about time. That was still some funny scoring though

Running the last few rounds is EXACTLY what can give the fight away.

 

[snkrfollower]

Split decision is buns. Thurman dominated. At least he didn't get robbed. 

 

[mr highness]

Dawg my heart was pounding when Danny Garcia was raising his hand before the final score was being read. I was going to say....this would have been my last day being a boxing fan.

 

[niketalker23]

Split decision is a ******* joke

 

[aepps20]

Thurman did a great job. Danny has a heck of a chin.

 

[snkrfollower]

Good night for boxing regardless. Sport is on one hell of an upswing, and like it or not PBC has a lot to do with that. Gotta give Haymon his due...
