Comments Thread For: Ryan Garcia Explains Passing on Gesta: "It's Not About Money, Easy Fights, I'm Focused On Tank'

[Oregonian]

Seems like whatever Garcia does people will rag on him ?

First it was " he's a social media celebrety ".
Then it was " he hasn't fought anybody ".
After that it was " he won't fight Tank ".
Now that the fight's pretty much set there are still some saying " it won't happen. He'll pull out. "

When the fight happens and he wins ( which I think he has a Good chance of ) they'll find something else to hate about the kid.

No they won’t.
Garcia is getting KO’d before the 8th round and if he beats Tank, no sane boxing fan should criticize him ever again. It’s that simple.

fight only happens if oscar wants to see ryan knocked out to teach him a listen. remember he was setting up santa cruz to get beatdown by rigodeaux.

lets see if Davis stays out of jail

Tank is worth too much money to powerful networks and people to go to jail over something relatively minor.
This is America, where you get the Justice that you can afford and Tank can afford a lot of Just-us.

What’s funny is Mannix said on his podcast Friday that Garcia’s team was pushing for the tune up fight.

Garcia is top drawer and could be cut or injured in a pointless warm up of which if he says he doesn't need then he doesn't. There's too many 'fighters' that do this warm up crap .

These guys are lame. I don't think I've ever seen fighters chat as much about each other as these two and still not fight.

I was kind of surprised that they were both going to take fights before their planned fight. Nobody wanted to see Garcia vs Gesta in the first place. At least Tank's fight will be somewhat interesting, even though it's a smaller man moving up in weight again. Promotion for their big fight? It's just dragging it out, and potentially postponing it.

Oscar isn't going to kill his Cash Cow to be teaching any kind of lessons. He believes that Ryan can win this fight.
People are overlooking the physical advantages that Garcia has in this fight. The height and reach differences are pretty substantial.
This is a really tough fight for both guys.

\Do you actually READ most of these threads?? The word "sane" is not usually attached to most boxing fans.......

Wasn't it hit and run? A pregnant woman? He might get the book thrown at him. I'm not sure there will be a sympathetic Judge or Jury. It didn't sound like the woman was willing to be paid off.
