By Eliezer Garcia, NY/NJ Boxing Correspondent- Ringside
Brooklyn, NY (April 12, 2015)– The bout opened up to a slow pace, as it appeared Lamon Peterson’s (33-3-1-17 Kos) game plan was to move and box, while Danny tried to cut the ring off. The 5th round picked up as both fighters began to exchange a little. Danny Garcia (30-0, 17 KOs) landed a flush right that might of won him the round. The fight began to heat up after the 8th round. Peterson continued his stick and move style until all of a sudden the script flipped. The last minutes of the 8th and 9th round Peterson pressured Danny and had him against the ropes, where he was able to get away with combinations. Garcia and Peterson gave us probably their best in championship rounds. Both fighters engaged and the fans here at Barclays Center roared with excitement. The rounds were very hard to score due to the fact that both men had their moments in each round. The judges scorecards read: 114-114, 115-113, 115-113 in favor of still undefeated Danny Garcia by majority decision.
Danny Garcia: “ that was a war, that’s what the fans wanna see. He did a good job I did too. He was moving a lot and I thought it was edgy , it was close not gonna lie. I have to move up in weight its affecting my performance.”
Angel Garcia:” I don’t know what that judge was thinking having it a draw. You can’t win running. Yes 147 seems the like the plan right now.”
