By Gerardo Granados: Last Saturday night at Bayamon, Puerto Rico; we got the chance to see a good fight. In theory it wasn’t supposed to be too difficult for the WBA-WBC light welterweight belt holder Danny Garcia (W28-L0-D0), but the challenger Mauricio Herrera (W20-L4-D0) proved to be a good boxer and put up a great performance. The fight was very competitive and there were hard rounds to score, at the end I scored it even 114-114 with two close rounds that could have gone to either fighter.
But was it a major factor to have had the “open scoring”? This system has been criticized by boxing fans, even boxing analyst and authorities can´t find consensus on its effective use. When Saul Alvarez defeated Austin Trout some believed that it hurt Trout to know he was behind on the score cards, last Saturday night when the score cards were announced in the fourth and eight rounds I believe it didn’t influenced negatively the performance of both fighters.
By Dan Ambrose: WBA/WBC light welterweight champion Danny Garcia (28-0, 16 KO’s) came out the winner last Saturday night in beating Maurico Herrera (20-4, 7 KO’s) by a questionable 12 round majority decision in Bayamon, Peurto Rico, but Garcia was speaking like he had lost the fight at the post-fight press conference. He stated over and over again that he did his job and won the fight, but there was no conviction in his voice and in the voice of his father Angel Garcia. 
By Dan Ambrose: After what many people saw as a pure robbery last night in WBA/WBC light welterweight champion Danny Garcia’s controversial 12 round majority decision victory over Mauricio Herrera (20-4, 7 KO’s) at the Coliseo Ruben Rodriguez, Bayamon, Puerto Rico, Herrera is saying that he wants a rematch at 140 lbs if Garcia doesn’t move up in weight to 147. Garcia was hinting after the fight that he may move up in weight due to the problems he had in making weight for the fight. He blamed his poor performance on his problems making weight in part.

Garcia defeated Khan by a 4th round TKO two years ago in a big upset. 
By Steve Davis: Danny Garcia (28-0, 16 KO’s)) got lucky in retaining his super lightweight titles against Mauricio Herrera (20-4, 7 KO’s) in Puerto Rico via majority decision last Saturday night in Coliseo Ruben Rodriguez, Bayamon, in Puerto Rico. The judges scored the fight 114-114, and 116-112 twice. This result should put Garcia out of the running for fighting Floyd Mayweather Jr. in September or early next year. 
By Rocky Esposito: Typically, I do not get upset with the outcome of a fight. However, forgive me tonight. What a disgrace! What an absolute disgrace. I like WBA/WBC light welterweight champion Danny Swift Garcia, (28-0, 16KO); I know he is only a fighter and not a judge, but he definitely lost this fight tonight to Mauricio Herrera (20-4) at the Coliseo Ruben Rodriguez, Bayamon, Puerto Rico. The judges scored the fight 114-114, 116-112, 116-112.

By Dan Ambrose: Open scoring will be used for tonight’s fights between Deontay Wilder and Malik Scott, and Danny Garcia and Mauricio Herrera, according to Fightnews. The World Boxing Councils rules will be in play, and one of them is open scoring unfortunately. The scores will be read after the 4th and 8th rounds, which will take away any suspense at all in the fights. The only thing good about is it will likely only affect the Garcia-Herrera fight, because Scott will not be around by the end of the 4th round.
