    Don't recall Garcia training anybody above welterweight. Is there really no difference in training boxers of such different sizes? I'll probably get corrected, but it seems like most Garcia fighters were compact pressure fighters with solid chins.

    Having said that, I have no idea what style beats Usyk. Wlad style jab-n-grab maybe?
    Garcia has dabbled with bigger fighters but even he had said he likes his fighters to be around a certain size. Featherweight to Welter.

    I don't know if it beats Uysk but pressure seems to bother him a bit. Like in the Chisora fight.

      Michael Hunter will be his best option possibly Bredis or Gassiev they don't need to replicate Usyk exactly just approximate certain aspects of him.

        Yeah not sure how or what garcia will add to AJ game in short period of time,its an interesting move indeed from joshua but if he wants to implement some of that offensive mexican style pressure to try to beat uzyk we've got a great rematch awaiting then

          Its an interesting move but aj has to prepare %110 and not go back to fighting how he knows like a lot of them do under pressure . uysk has even more to prove this time and is gonna come in %110 focused .

            AJ looks very lean, with a hint of gyno. Usyk doing VADA, AJ is not. I really hope I´m wrong here.

              He pieced up Wlad in sparring.

              I know what beats Usyk, though: a lucky punch

                And the big dope is going to get pumped by Usyk. Stay humble dummy.

                  Garcia has a terrible record against southpaws and no heavyweight experience.

                  Regardless, AJ does not have the attributes to beat Usyk without relying on ageing him out.

                    Ali got pieced up by Mildenburger. A southpaw as advanced as Usyk is too much for any old era fighter to handle.

                      I love that you took that comment seriously, but stop it.
                      Mildenburger was all heart that night but he was TKO'd and his face was a mess by the end.
                      Ali never lost to a southpaw.
