Mikey Garcia vs Javier Fortuna?

why should anyone believe mickey? we all know he ducked gamboa and left the sport for three years. loma is more skilled and with a better chin. mickey don't want that work :boxing: So Arum screwed him and wouldn't let him fight without signing a long-term extension...and Mikey had the balls to fight Arum in court and win...and somehow that means Mikey is a ducker? Whatever, bruh.

Yeah...the overhand right that wasn't landing until the 11th round. Coming up in weight? How long do you think Mikey has been at 135? Mikey and Fortuna have had the same number of fights at 135, so neither of them is "coming up in weight." Given that you're parroting the moronic theory of "A beat B, and B beat C, so A is better than C," I doubt you've watched multiple fights in your entire life. He rocked him with that shot in the previous round. Nobody is using any theory, your reading comprehension is just not very good. It's quite simple; when you talk big, its best to not fight a guy that was knocked out by a guy that one of your potential opponents just clowned a week ago. We'll see what happens when Mikey gets offered a real big fight. He might just duck it like he did Gamboa.

We all know Linares won't fight him, since he's been avoiding Mikey for over a year. Flanagan probably won't fight him, and Flanagan is basic anyway. Arum said Loma would fight him...but you don't actually believe something Arum says, do you? Easter, Shafikov, Rances, Beltran all have fights. Fortuna is about the best available.why should anyone believe mickey? we all know he ducked gamboa and left the sport for three years. loma is more skilled and with a better chin. mickey don't want that work :boxing:

Eh he's OK, but I was hoping for someone else We all know Linares won't fight him, since he's been avoiding Mikey for over a year. Flanagan probably won't fight him, and Flanagan is basic anyway.

I've seen it multiple times. He was getting caught repeatedly with the same shots for the final few rounds. A 'lucky shot'? It was a 3 punch combination, started by the overhand right that Sosa was throwing throughout. All the big talk and he's instead going to fight a guy coming up in weight that was previously stopped by someone Lomachenko utterly clowned.

Err it's alright I guess. As long as he isn't hyped up as much as Mikey's previous opponent. The hype job Showtime did on Zlaticanin surpassed HBO levels. I can't believe how much they had hyped that dude up. -_-" Completely unknown, a damn midget and as basic as they come.

Eh he's OK, but I was hoping for someone else

The same Fortuna that got KO'd by Sosa at 130? Yet somehow when Mikey beats him that will be an amazing win. I like Mikey, but lets stay consistent people. I like how literally every comment before yours is talking about how it's an easy win for Garcia and you're trying to accuse them of hyping the fight up.

You clearly didn't see the fight. Fortuna was well ahead when he was caught by a lucky shot by Sosa. Fortuna beats Sosa 9 out of 10 times. I've seen it multiple times.

Wow fighting Lomas leftovers leftovers s/

All that talk and he's about to fight a dude moving up in weight that just got KO'd? This is a big letdown.

No he isn't :lol1: He was stopped by the guy Lomachenko just embarrassed. You clearly didn't see the fight. Fortuna was well ahead when he was caught by a lucky shot by Sosa. Fortuna beats Sosa 9 out of 10 times.

@steveucnlive I talked to Javier Fortuna and his trainer at my gym and they said they're fighting Mikey Garcia next on SHO— Dark Prince (@whoisDarkPrince) April 13, 2017 Not a terrible fight but a bit underwhelming with all the talk of Mikey fighting some P4P level guys. Fortuna is dangerous but wild as ****, this could be another highlight reel KO for Mikey. 100% agree, mikey shouldn't have any problems putting him away.

No he isn't :lol1: He was stopped by the guy Lomachenko just embarrassed.exactly. terrible match up.

It's a good fight against a guy with a super awkward style but what happened to Linares?

I don't hate the match-up, but Fortuna's style matches up horribly against a sniper like Garcia. He can be too loose with his offense, but his defense isn't tight enough to save him from sticky situations. If Mikey hurts him, I don't see Fortuna being able to ward him off.

No he isn't :lol1: He was stopped by the guy Lomachenko just embarrassed. To be fair. Fortuna was winning that fight pretty easily, **** happens. Getting stopped does'nt make him a bad opponent. Certainly not a top choice, but not like he is some bum.

No he isn't :lol1: He was stopped by the guy Lomachenko just embarrassed. Yet somehow it will be twisted to make Loma look terrible and Mikey a god. No chance they will elevate Sosa.

Mikey vs Loma was all talk...never realistic. If Linares won't fight Mikey, then Fortuna is perfectly acceptable option. He's as good as the guys Loma and Crawford have been fighting. No he isn't :lol1: He was stopped by the guy Lomachenko just embarrassed.
