Comments Thread For: Ryan Garcia Drops Javier Fortuna Three Times, Knocks Him Out in Sixth

[Southpaw16]

Scary good? Ryan is flat footed and stiff as a rail. No bobbing and weaving, no lateral movement. Even with over matched Fortuna, he looked clumsy, dragging his feet. Will Ryan fight Zapeda at 140, or is he just hunting midgets?

He’s a puncher, the power is generated by being a bit stiffer and flat footed. It’s just how the body generated rotational power. Similar to how a baseball player plants his front foot and stiffens the leg when swinging a bat, similar analogies in golf. That’s why with his style, he relies on subtle foot movement and bending at the waist rather than bobbing and weaving.

Zepeda takes too many punches to win against Garcia IMO, but I’d love to see that fight.

I don't fall in love with any of these guys. Ryan is just another specimen to be analyzed and critiqued. We are talking boxing. In his case, the lack of.

Guys, he just blasted out Fortuna in 6 rounds, destroying him to the body and head, couldn’t miss with the lead right hand. This is Javier Fortuna, a legit and entrenched top 10 guy in the division, who’s proven at the world level. If you weren’t impressed by that, you’ve just made a decision to not be impressed.

If Ryan could box, I would be the first to praise him. He has his assets, he might hone his skills to make his style work, heart counts, but watch out for rough weather. 140 is shark infested.

You don't know what a journeyman is.

The guy who said that is wrong that's for sure. But this guy is the worse for what he said in this post: VegasRaiders View Post
Garcia 2 round knockout. Take the other Africans with you too Tagoe.

He didn't throw anything or have the confidence because of the power and speed of Ryan's counters. It baffles me that you guys can't comprehend those attributes are going to make every fighter he faces hesitant lol.

It baffles me that you think that Fortuna was in good shape when he is a 126 lber who got 7 weeks notice for this fight while Ryan had been training since before. This guy doesn't know **** about boxing I already stated what I stated before and it's there to be seen. Where was that speed and power against Tagoe, Velez and Morales? You know the same Velez feather fisted Flores knocked out or the same Morales that Linares sparked out? All these 135 lbers are fighting former featherweights and it impresses you guys so much it's funny.

I clearly said Ryan was going to win regardless, but Fortuna didn't come in fighting shape and didn't even give himself a chance to win learn to read.

End of story, some folks just have a passion for seeing GBP related stars experience a downfall, it brings them great joy.

This is also the fight game not amateur boxing and Haney lacks FIGHTING skills big time.

Many here will never give Ryan his credit he can KO Teofimo and Tank back to back and they'll fi find a way to discredit him it is what it is.
