Ryan Garcia vs Mickey Garcia, who would have won? (Hypothethical)

[Malvado]

A fight at lightweight which most likely be composed of Athleticism vs Fundamentals.

Ryan Garcia lightweight run:
Luke Campbell-Defeated Tommy Coyle (only decent win is a faded Katsidis at the end of his career), and controversial loss to Jorge Linares.
Emmanuel Tagoe- After his debut loss he was undefeated for 32 fights but had no major win.
Javier Fortuna- Can't manage to find a good win or even a loss where it was competitive other than his fight with Joseph Diaz Jr.

Mikey Garcia lightweight run:
Dejan Zlatičanin- Was Undefeated in their bout, Defeated Ricky Burns whose biggest wins were Michael Katsidis and Roman Martinez.
Adrien Broner- Defeated Daniel Ponce de Leon, Anthony De Marco, Paulie Malignaggi(?), and Khabib Allakhverdiev.
Sergey Lipinets- Was undefeated, defeated faded Lamont Peterson and faded Omar Figueroa.
Robert Easter Jr- Was Undefeated with wins over Richard Commey, Denis Shafikov, Adrian Granados and Javier Fortuna.


Ryan Garcia has demonstrated improvements ever since his comeback and change of camps with Joe Goosen, however he still hasn't really achieved much at the division even though he is soon going to move up, in the other hand Mickey only had 1 KO win against Zlaticanin in his short lightweight run but dominated all of his opponents with his very fundamentally sound textbook style.

Who would have won if it there was fight between Ryan Garcia who just defeated Javier Fortuna and Mickey Garcia after beating Robert Easter?

Lol please is this even a contest? Mikey is too technical with too much power for Ryan at any weight. Ryan’s terrible defense would be exposed in this fight.

The ****ladeshi one

Ryan isn't soon mooving up, his last two fights were at 140.

He is not a lightweight anymore, they are selling him as one to avoid match ups with the big boys.

Mickey had a pretty good run though he changed divisions way too fast. He will never be considered someone who was one of the best at a specific division. But honestly, he didn't take any easy fights while doing so, even fighting a quite large welterweight by moving up two divisions. None of the fighters he won against are HOF caliber but they were plenty talented to win against noteworthy names, too bad he gets disrespected quite often for his comments prior to the bout against Errol Spence Jr.

Featherweight run:
Orlando Salido 40-11-2
Juan Manuel Lopez 33-2-0
Super featherweight run:
Roman Martinez 27-1-2
Juan Carlos Burgos 30-1-2
Elio Rojas 24-2-0
Lightweight run:
Dejan Zatlicanin 22-0-0
Robert Easter 21-0-0
Light welterweight run:
Adrien Broner 33-2-0
Sergey Lipinets 13-0-0
Welterweight run:
Jessie Vargas 29-2-2

Mickey Garcia used textbook fundamentals at an advanced level, he was a versatile and adaptable fighter only suitable at fighting boxers around his size range, I don't think what Ryan Garcia has demonstrated so far as a fighter is anything that Mickey Garcia couldn't had handled.

Someone like Luke Campbell temporarily had the upper hand on Ryan at the start of the fight because the latter displayed limited skills compared to the professionally unsuccessful Olympian, focusing in just head hunting, sure he displayed improvements more wrinkles to his game against Fortuna, but he was step down compared to Campbell.

If Ryan Garcia were to put a dominating display against the winner of the JoJo Diaz vs William Zepeda bout and a top 5 ranking fighter at light/light welterweight I might think the fight would be more debatable in my opinion, but as so far, I am inclined to believe Mickey just has way more experience at facing adversity with a style able to adjust to anything Ryan Offers.
