Garcia was very "swift" with the counters in his early days. I agree that he's pretty slow now and his nickname hasn't been appropriate for at least a couple years.Last edited by Redd Foxx; 04-16-2016, 04:39 PM.

That weight jump was the best thing he's every done for his bank account, and the worst for his record. His style changed entirely.

Cause at any given moment he cant activate his 6th toe and hit a 6 foot vertical or lung 22 feet. He doesnt do it though anymore cause he says being puerto rican he gets made fun of enough he dont need the extra ridicule.

Floyd went from PBF to $ May to TBE.
One name change shouldn't break Garcia and Guerrero
