Comments Thread For: Rolly Romero Says Showdown With Ryan Garcia Is 'A Massive Fight, Boxing Needs That Fight'

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

LAS VEGAS - Rolando "Rolly" Romero wants a rematch with Gervonta Davis. The brash Romero realizes, too, that a fight against the contender that Davis knocked out last month would also attract a lot of attention. Romero thus discussed the possibility of boxing Ryan Garcia following a press conference Thursday at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas to promote his fight against Ismael Barroso on Saturday night.

It’s obvious where we’re heading.. WBA couldn’t help themselves to get first in line for a Ryan Garcia feast

I actually agree with Rolly. Cryan Garcia is going to be a problem against anybody at 140

[alexnation]

I second that. Rolly vs Garcia would be a good one

Are you kidding me? Matias and Prograis would **** him! Shojahon Ergashev and Gary Antuanne Russell would hurt him badly too! Ryan needs to start with Richardson Hitchins or Montana Love, and then work his way up! BTW, I think all those guys can beat Rolly too!

NOTES FROM THE BOXING UNDERGROUND: TANK-GARCIA, THE POSTMORTEM
By Paul Magno | April 24, 2023

Simply put, Garcia was just not ready for a fight like this against a fighter like Tank. He lacked the mental toughness, the discipline, and, most importantly, the maturity as a fighter to have a legitimate shot at victory.

As I wrote in last week’s Notes from the Boxing Underground column:

“What I sense [in Ryan Garcia] is not weakness or lack of toughness, it’s insecurity. It makes one doubt whether he can pull it all together when really, truly in a bad place and whether he can keep it together when things aren’t going too well.

Given where the kid is at developmentally, it’s worth wondering whether insecurity, which could manifest itself as wavering focus and out-of-kilter ego at times, has affected his growth as a fighter. At some point you have to ask why, with so much experience and guidance under the eyes of smart trainers like Eddy Reynoso and Joe Goossen, DOES he still have so many very obvious technical flaws (Chin up, pulls straight back, poor footwork, etc.). It makes one wonder whether Garcia’s heart, soul, mind, whatever, makes him untrainable to a degree or if he’s simply not mature enough, right now, to become the fighter he should be.”

And I knew I was right on the money with that assessment when Garcia’s present tense trainer, Goossen, made the following statement in a recent interview:

"You don't necessarily train Ryan Garcia, you have to collaborate with him because he has his ideas and thoughts…"

So, yeah, it’s never a good thing when a young, developing fighter has somehow talked himself into the notion (or has been talked into the notion) that his flawed fundamentals are actually a ring “style.” Raw talent will take you far in boxing, but you can’t break into the elite class of the sport without the seasoning that can only be found in long, rough, not-at-all glamorous gym work.

Garcia was a star in his own world well before fighting on any boxing main stage and it’s tough training a star to be a fighter.

Unbelievable, a PBC fighter calling out a GBP fighter. He's not calling out his fellow PBC fighters. There's Frank Martin, Isaac Cruz.

And who would bend over backwards this time to make it happen? I don't think Oscar and Garcia would have to go through again with that.

I suggested this in previous post. I see there's interest in a Romero vs R Garcia fight. What Garcia needs to do is heal up his gut shot spot and this would be a barn burner.
This would be great for the winner to get a rematch with Davis. I think this fits with logic. Although there isn't much logic in boxing. Both guys need some better coaching.

Jesus!!! How old is this guy Romero is fighting???

Ryan vs Rolly would be fun. That’s not a bad fight to make at all, I bet it would sell well too.

It would probably do better numbers than Tank’s next PPV.
