Some hit (and generally handle the bat) better than others, and it's rightly a benefit to their team versus the ones that can't. Hell if Rick Ankiel had played in the AL, his career might have ended in the 90s.

I think Matthysse is gonna get him in the 5th. Can't wait for this fight though, I expect Danny will get caught with one of Lucas' best shots somewhere within the first 6 rounds...if he stands up to them and is able to answer back without losing his composure, this will be a real great fight down the stretch!
Looking forward to it a lot

I like Garcia in this, though I'm aware I am in the minority.
Im with you Bobby, we're probably wrong though haha.

Garcia is B+ at everything. Matthysse is less than B+ at nothing, and A to A+ in at least power and chin. I have trouble understanding how anyone could pick Garcia, tbh.

I gave it to Matthysse, but I think I only did so because I assumed his shots were inherently more powerful based on reputation. Very close.

Everytime Matthysse unloads you're half expecting Garcia's head to fly of into the crowd haha.

Rd 2 clear for Matthysse. More and harder shots, hurt him a bit with early body shot, and totally in charge. 20-18 LM.

That's a strange way to score a round.

Both chins holding up well so far. Garcia landed a cracking right hand aswell in that round.

Rd 3 another close one. Danny started pushing the pace, and remarkably hung with LM. I'll give it to him. 29-28 LM.
Rd 4. Matthysse not letting his hands go...so much so I almost wonder if he hurt his right. Easy rd for Garcia. 38-38.

garcia not looking bad there in the 4th but matthysse still looking like he's going to wear him down with brute force

garcia looks like he's taking control of the fight, matthysse not really throwing alot and getting countered.
