在赛后接受采访时瑟曼说;我赢得了比赛,这是一个很明确的胜利,虽然加西亚在后面想努力拼回。至于打分出现分歧,我知道会被热议。
我始终也没有放弃战斗,开局我打的更好一些,后面逐步开始打的更冷静,我觉得我控制了每一回合中所有的三分钟。
“I thought I out-boxed him.” said Thurman, who likely earned a spot on boxing’s mythical pound-for-pound list with the impressive victory. “I thought it was a clear victory, but Danny came to fight. I knew when it was split and I had that wide spread, I knew it had to go to me.
Thurman won a terrific bout with Shawn Porter at Barclays last June. This one wasn’t of such high quality throughout, but it had its moments.
Both fighters opened up without reservation, each missing several haymakers, but also landing solid punches. Thurman’s right leads were particularly effective, while Garcia, whose right eye was getting red by the fourth round, used his right hand to keep Thurman off-balance.
With each fighter capable of landing the one punch to end it, the crowd of 16,533 roared with every shot - until the sixth, when both guys got cautious. Despite all the previous action, the fans booed what clearly was the worst round of the bout.
It was nearly impossible to live up to the fury of the first five rounds, anyway, and only occasionally the rest of the way did the fight do so.
But Thurman tactically was being smart.
“I was not giving the fight away,” he said. “ I felt like we had a nice lead, we could cool down. I felt like we were controlling the 3-minute intervals in each and every round.” |
