So far. Look at him go, quick speed. Now he plants. Oh on the button and another one, followed by a left hook. Danny garcia waited, and here he comes beautiful work by danny garcia. The fight. To hit hard. Just put them together. Hes going away. Just keep doing it. Stay faithful. Danny garcia, early on, didnt look like he was as active as we thought he would be, but the body shots now starting to pay dividends. Once again, the wbc welterweight World Championship on the line between these two men, danny garcia in the pink leopard trunks, Robert Guerrero in red. This is the title vacated by the retirement of the great Floyd Mayweather. Danny garcia finding his rhythm. The sixths round his best so far far. I cant help but wonder if guerrero has been goaded into a fight he doesnt want. Now i think he should be boxing a little bit more. Walking into those big punches. Going to keep walking him down. I would like to see him step in and step out, just paint him, just make him miss, he feinted right there. Big right hand again, slows guerrero down all the way. Barely missing that time. Garcia has been on his back foot this entire fight. Matador approach. He is boxing beautifully. He is, but hes walking right into it. He needs to make danny run for it a little bit more. But i think he is gainsaid on this approach. Danny gets what he wants out of the exchanges, and then moves out. Ruben guerrero telling his son that he needed to use his brawling, champ, as you know, sometimes we are who we are. Thats right. And he is a fighter. Traditional, move forward, rough you up. Hes caught the boxer in him, but for some reason, he locks the door, he doesnt let him out. Garcia going to the body now for guerrero, his hands are starting to drop. Just an inch, and that left hook is devastating for danny garcia. Straight right hand pushes through. Another right hand. As soon as he started relaxing, started to score those right hands. Garcia. I think early on hjust wanted to land all the power shots, but hes got his hands down, hes relaxed, using that, paying off for him. Danny garcia, he throws that puerto rican left hook where he gets all of the knuckle on it. Trinidad. We talked a lot about Danny Garcias left hook, but the right hand has been effective tonight. That is the first. Another look. The traditional goto punch on a southpaw, works for me, into the seventh is like it is working for garcia. Lets check in with steve farhood. I think danny garcia is winning this fight, clearly the last couple of rounds, in that sixth round he remembered the is the right hand, he has done some very good fighting work as well. This is a case where i think the aggressor is not winning the fight, i have garcia ahead by 3 points. Not just right hands, big overhand rights, haymakers. Eighth round. Scheduled for 12 for the wbc welterweight world Champ Danny Garcia in pink, roberterro in red. Ears old, guerrero keith, a friend of mine said, if im going in a ring with another man, i know him better than his mother. You know him better youve been in the ring with Robert Guerrero, what do you know . The harder you hit him, the more he moves forward. Hes showing that. It happened when i was knocked him down in the ninth round, he came back in the tenth. Really trying to showcase his skills and talent and heart. We know guerrero is a tough fighter, constantly moving forward, but he has been paying for it. Not necessarily sites like this. Fights like this. By the way, folks, mark kriegel wrote an incredible book on mancini. Thanks, buddy. Round. Most of them are about fathers and sons, at least qualifies me for this fight. Another book . Could be. The fathers of these two fighters, interesting characters. Both of these guys we see right now by vessels for their fathers ambition, for what each father has overcome, guerreros father picked strawberries in gilroy, california. Garcias father did too much drugs, two years in the joint. Came out, fought cancer, throat cancer, said, i wont let them take my vocal cords. If i cant talk, im not taking treatment. In some respects, we goof on the fathers, they we laugh at them, they entertain us, but they generate take the heat for their sons as well. Well put. We have seen an awful lot in the past of pathological, dysfunctional fatherson relationships, especially in this sport. Whatever you want to say about these two guys and their fathers, they have done pretty well. There is authentic love there. Right hand connecting for garcia at the end of the round. And lets listen to the dads. I dont want you to slow down. Picking apart, hit him hard. You hit him with that child, cant get that straight right hand in there in the corner. He does this, on right . [speaking spanish] yeah. [speaking spanish] time to get busy, all right, robert . Get busy. Make moves, man. Nothing like having your dad in your corner. No, theres nothing like that. Its almost unknown in sports. At what point do you stop being a father and start being a trainer or stop being a trainer and start being a father . You are looking at your own son there, your own plot, and boxing is unlike any other sport. All the other sports are metaphors for what this actually is, combat, how do you let your sundays damage. Its a dilemma. Ninth round in the wbc World Championship welterweight title, Floyd Mayweather in a attendance as they fight for his belt. Guerrero in red. Garcia has been backing up the entire fight. Nice, short uppercut by guerrero as he uses his Head Movement to get in now. Looks like he has caught his second wind. His father was talking to him, vamanos. I dont speak spanish, but i know what that word means. Hes putting himself back into the fight in this ninth round. Bruises on the face of garcia and guerrero. Garcia throwing a lot of big punches in the last couple of rounds, makes you wonder in this front if hes taking a little guerrero is being guerrero, but i dont see him making good or coming c making good on his prediction of being the first guy to put danny garcia down. Straight right hand on the button for garcia, uses his shoulder to push off, now backs up. Getting great leverage on his punches. Left hook there. Nice leverage on that left hook. Another left hook garcia, fema and quickness, drove feline quickness, drove. We did not expect him to throw while moving backwards. A new wrinkle in the maturation of young danny garcia. And guerrero is not really boxing so much as hes just coming forward and following. Applying a lot of pressure throughout the whole fight. They are who we thought they were. Beautiful lead right hand, acknowledged by guerrero. Im not sure i thought he was that. That was a Floyd Mayweather right hand. Later in his career, Floyd Mayweather. Another sneaky right hand that time by danny garcia. [bell ringing] beautiful work for the philly boy, strong round for danny garcia. Right hand, left hook, beautiful, stepping off the back foot. Kind of feinted i jab there too. Very calm. All right, lets go to Charissa Thompson with Robert Guerreros wife. Been witness to a much bigger fight, you cookies have been a part of one, his wife casey was diagnosed with leukemia in 2007. The cancer spread into her brain, she needed a bone marrowow transplant, found a match. A young woman from germany. Doctors tell only gave her a 50 50 chance. Thankfully, the surgery was a success, and now casey is cancer free. Talking to him today, it says it brings everything into perspective, everything i do here compares to what hes pales to what hes been through in comparison with his wife. Vacating his 135pound title to be with casey during her recovery. This one for 12 rounds for the wbc world title, 147pound welterweight, Robert Guerrero in the leopard trunks. Danny garcia definitely more comfortable counterpunching throughout the whole second half of this fight. One of the things guerrero has abandoned i. D. Jabs to the body that helped him establish the distance. Everything slowing down now for danny guerrero. Garcia has taken the aggressiveness out, looping right hand. There is that Floyd Mayweather style for garcia. Keith, at this level, you look to a guy like garcia and guerrero as prospective opponent, what do you see in this guy that you didnt see it took him a while, you know. I thought guerrero won at least two of the opening three with the aggression, but then, you know, once danny was able to relax, i mean, the counterpunching, you know. I think its something new. Did you think he could fight this will moving backwards . Thats what surprises me. I mean, i dont know if danny knew he could do it. Maybe he was just forced into the position tonight. But he seems calm, and he seems to have made a proper adjustment. His power punches at every step of that adjustment have been a lot more effective. Guerrero, being tough, havent seen a knockdown. He can take the big punches. I think thats what his father was concerned about with both fighters battered and bruised, bloody as well. 30 seconds to go in the tenth round. Staples center in downtown los angeles, california. Im surprised with Danny Garcias contentment with moving backwards throughout the whole fight. I understand using it because youre being put under pressure, but every once in a while, i would think that he would try to make guerrero stepped back. Ill tell you what, the way hes got his hands positioned, the philly fighter. Look at him. All right, time now to hear from a legend as our brian kenny joins us. Yes indeed, Floyd Mayweather himself. Weve been talking about you all night. Thanks for talking about me. Its good to be here. Its very exciting fight tonight. Garcia, guerrero, the whole thing . I think its very, very close. Right now, i give the edge to guerrero. Danny garcia, he is a young, hungry lying, anything can happen. You look like youre still about 150 pounds. Hungry or just sightseeing. Weve got some big things that are going to happen in the future. Everybody is wondering, will you come back . Since youve had a few months off, whats in your heart . Just with my children, happy to be at the place with me, as of right now, i dont have the urge to fight. Okay, well then. Would he think takes over for you if you dont come back. There is a lot of great talent out there. There is indeed. Good seeing you. Thank you. That was not a note to the question, will you come back and fight . That was not a definitive know, for the record. The wbc welterweight world title. Danny garcia and Robert Guerrero guerrero. Sounded very lawyerish. Not a definite no. In the championship round here, see who wants it. I dont think its a question of desire, i think its a question of talent at this point. Mayweather feeling that guerrero is leading it so far. Dont you think theres always a little biased to the guy that you fought . Sometimes there is. Sometimes there is. You know, but judges do have different judging styles, so you do have to give credit got to give credit, but those left hooks that weve been seeing, youre not sure what the judges are going to get the most credit to since the fight does look like its going to end up going to be scorecards. I thought the first half of the fight is pretty clear for guerrero, second half pretty clear for garcia. I dont think that guerrero looks his age, but i do think that there is a bit of a talent disparity. The next four minutes could decide the winner of this fight. These two pugilists have to let their hands go. Danny is a slugger. He is boxing beautifully. Some bodywork followed by a keeps that right hand high. And guerrero pushing through. Nice flurry by garcia. Oh uppercut by garcia. What an angle. But it doesnt deter Robert Guerrero. Baseball bat. [laughter] he did, he fought you. Guerrero letting his hands go at the end of the round. 12th round coming up, folks. This may be for all the marbles. Danny garcia turning over that danny comes underneath. Beautiful, tricky shot. We havent seen much of that on the night, it worked right there. Lets take a look at steve farhoods unofficial scorecard. I give guerrero the tenth round. Interesting, and ugly round, little happened, ugly for guerrero is good. Been enough of those type of rounds, havent been enough, thats why i have garcia winning. Why i have garcia winning. Here we go, the 12th and final round for the wbc welterweight World Championship. Danny garcia in leopard, Robert Guerrero in red. Aggressive to start the round. Garcia just ties him up. Garcia backing up the entire fight, a new wrinkle in his game game, playing the matador. When i tap into my memory bank, he actually showed some of this blueprint, some of the ability to box will moving while moving backwards when he thought lucas matthysse. Matthysse was applying similar pressure. Garcia has beaten some tough fighters, matthysse, peterson, amir khan, paulie malignaggi, zap judah. That was a big upset at the time. People didnt know how good this left hook by garcia, getting through port guerrero. Now he moves in. Garcia ties him up, he may feel that he has this fight in the bag. He is pretty confident, at the end of the day, it is guerrero being guerrero saying, come on, bring it on, charging in. Elbow by guerrero. Garcia covering up, 1 seer nine i have to wonder if its too late for guerrero. Been a clean fight so far. Boxing so well, got out of left hand by guerrero. Robert guerrero, relentless. If you dont like this fight, you aint ever going to like boxing, because these guys gave everything they had, neither fighter should leave with any regrets, no matter what happens. Garcia with a smacking right hand, up against the body, left hook. Guerrero still moving. Uppercut gets through. Garcia penetrating. On his feet. 10 seconds remaining. Guerrero, garcia, guerrero, garcia, guerrero, garcia great fight. They put on a show in l. A. what a way to finish. So coming up, the decision.
