Can we stop with this before it even starts? The entire boxing community is in an uproar with Boots because of his poor selection of opponents; having him beat up on an old man does nothing to reverse course.

Yeah man, why make Fundora – Ennis when they can each fight hasbeens Thurman and Garcia respectively and ‘marinate’ the bigger fights (which probably won’t ever happen)?
Wasn’t Algieri encouraging Benavidez to delay a Bivol fight not so long ago?* When boxing’s self-appointed thought leaders don’t even demand the best fights

Chris Algieri – you wrote paragraphs on whether Garcia should hang them up or not but nothing on whether Paulie should be fighting? I’m sure you must have had that conversation with him. A scratched cornea is no joke – Paulie is a very very capable analyst, if a little too excitable at times, he needs to entirely focus on that.

No way! Danny Garcia is well past his prime now. However, when you think about it. Why the Hell not? Swift has made a career out of beating up old shopworn men who were well past their primes. So far, Boots have not fought an old man yet on his resume. So let’s do it.

So Garcia was full of shlt about that ” Farewell Fight ” business , just trying to sell a few more tickets. Like most other guys , he will hang around until some young buck or two beats the crap out of him badly enough for his family to beg him to retire. The same sad story as always. I understand it though it’s sad
