Would Spence/Garcia play out Like Pryor/ Arguello

Naw Spence doesnt have that 1 punch ko power Maybe against that lil dude though.

Honestly I don't think Arum would ever allow Loma vs Gacia..I think he'd do everything in his power not to have that happen..There is no way Arum is going to help provide a payday for a guy who fired him as a promoter.

No, it will resemble GGG/Brook. Mikey will get punished.

more like hearns vs duran...ha Naw Spence doesnt have that 1 punch ko power

possibly, but could be Hagler-Duran as wellmore like hearns vs duran...ha

I think if the fans Press For It and he knows he can make a lot of money off of it I think he would do it. Loma running out of opponents as well who is he gonna fight next once he gets healthy and takes a tune up? The winner of Beltran vs Pedraza? :dunno: neither are big fights! True story..

If he does that fight next, I think it could be Duran vs Hearns unfortunately for Mikey. HUGE fan of both, Mikey is very high on my P4P I think he is one of the most complete fighters in boxing today. If he worked his way up correctly and took 1-2 fights at 147 first then I would pick Mikey Garcia to Out-Box Spence Jr. But that leap straight from 135 to 147 with only 5 months to prepare :nonono: this is a AWFUL Career Move and I'm shocked Big G and Robert Garcia are OK with him doing it. My hope is that Spence Jr vs winner of Garcia vs Porter happens in January or February instead, that is what I prefer and is probably what Spence Jr Prefers as well. While Mikey goes fully after Lomachenko regardless of what Arum says and try to force their hand to make that fight. If not Loma then maybe 1-2 fights at 147 then this time next year a shot at Spence Jr Honestly I don't think Arum would ever allow Loma vs Gacia..I think he'd do everything in his power not to have that happen..

Yep, the big problem I saw with this match up is that Mikey didn't have glaring physical advantages. The smaller guy moving up is usually more explosive and quicker than the bigger guy. But can you really say that in this case? Pacquiao against bigger fighters had his power carry over and had lightning speed/quickness that blinded opponents. It's not impossible and plenty of old school fighters back in the day made the move from LW to WW successfully against the top guy, or elite WW. Agreed,kudo's to Garcia if this happens,we are to find out about both fighters.Oneway or another..

Good post..Mikey's mentality will be important in this fight esp the first 3rds..He is going to have to show he can mix it up with Spence early..If not Spence will become a locomotive.. This is the first fight I can remember where Garcia was not the bigger puncher..Going to be interesting..

I don't see this comparison. That may be more of Spence vs Crawford than this fight. Mikey isn't a guy who is going to move as much, nor is he a speedster like Taylor. I doubt he has much of a speed advantage vs Spence, if he even does at all. Mikey is going to try to counter and turn Spence all fight. Will he be successful? I don't know, but it is highly doubtful. If Mikey was more active and had as much dog in him that Duran had, then I could see that comparison (Hagler vs Duran), but that is really pushing it. Either way, I am still excited to see how it plays out. Mikey is super skillful and has arguably the best fundamentals in the game. Spence isn't going to be able to load up against him and get away with it. Mikey is too good for that. Spence may at times want to prove he can box with Mikey and start countering him or just out jabbing him. Mikey REALLY wants this fight and it isn't one that he was forced to take or had no other option, so lets see what he sees in Spence that makes him so confident.

Not suggesting Mikey is a speedster or Spence is like Chavez sr. just suggesting his best chance to win is boxing Spence and Spence should be able to wear him down over the course of the fight. No doubt, I got that part, but just saying the comparison you made may be better using Crawford instead of Mikey. Taylor won those rounds with his speed/athleticism/boxing skills. That more so is Crawford than Mikey.

Spence is going to KO Garcia. If they really fight.

Too big of a task for Mikey. Arguello was phenomenal but the weight class Pryor was in didn't fit him and Pryor's pressure and power took him down. Does anyone see the fight playing out similarly.Spence isn't really much heavier than Mikey. Mikey weighed 149 on fight night for Easter and Spence weighed 156 on fight night for his last fight. No doubt Mikey would weigh more than 149 on fight night if he fought Spence at welterweight. I believe Spence is by far the best welterweight fighting today. I think he will easily beat Mikey not because he is so much bigger but because he is so much better. He hits much harder, takes a punch much better and throws lots more punches per round than Mikey. I think it would be a one sided fight with Spence winning all the rounds and knocking Mikey out in any round from the 1st round to the 8th round maximum. MAN DOWN!

That's going to depend on if Garcia can really hurt Spence..One thing about Arguello he could hurt Pryor and badly hurt pryor..As of now I think there is dout about Garcia's power at WW..He could not finish Broner and dear I say was looking like he was getting clocked by Broner late in that fight.. So again anything can happen..Yet for me Mikey has to show Spence early he can hurt him..Or you can forget this comparison..

I think Chavez SR/Taylor where Mikey boxes to a lead but Spence wears him down and likely takes him out late. I don't see this comparison. That may be more of Spence vs Crawford than this fight.

Golovkin/Brook is a more likely comparison.

I think Chavez SR/Taylor where Mikey boxes to a lead but Spence wears him down and likely takes him out late.
