    Good Comeback Performance For Peterson! I know people wrote him off after the Testosterone stuff but he is still a factor and a threat at 140

      You know this makes too much sense to actually happen.
      I sitll think Rios/Matthysse is the best fight for the Division.

      Because of Petersons style eh can make fireworks with anyone, but Rios/Matthysse is the fight I'd like to see.

      Petersons performance against Ortiz also showed that Peterson will likely change gears and box outside if he isn't the stronger inside fighter. I'd expect him to counter more instead of engaging against both Bam Bam and Matthysse. They wouldn't be the action packed fight we think they'd be, just based on his gear change with Ortiz. He seems to respond like that against Power.

        I wouldn't mind the winner of that tournament getting a Mayweather fight.

          I don't know about that,both Garcia and Peterson both have very good timing..Both have decent power,Peterson a better boxer..But Garcia also goes to that body bro..I think Garcia get's slept on a bit here,I don't know how I would pick that fight..But honestly I don't believe Peterson get's beat up...

            It's crazy how many entertaining match-ups can be made @140.

              Winners fight each other with 4 titles on the line (WBC, WBA, IBF and The Ring)

                Garcia throws too wide inside. Remember when hehurt Khan, severla times... Khan would get in Garcias chest and Dannys hooks would hit Khan in the back or his biceps would end up hitting Khans shoulders. He can't shorten his punches up enough to be useful inside, Lamont wins on the inside fight alone.

                    Maybe,I see a close fight tbh..

                      I hear you, Rome. You could be right. It was Kendall Holt after all... he's never had an inside game himself, but he's been way past it whereas Garcia is still rising.
