Comments Thread For: De La Hoya Responds to '******' Critics of Ryan Garcia Vs. Oscar Duarte: 'Ryan Is Taking Big Risk'

[11Combos]

Guess cryan has enough fans (or Oscar has enough haters) to criticize this match up.

I'm guessing Oscar is hoping cryan loses to an unknown fighter and gets rid of the diva and starts promoting duerte

that's what i'm thinking too.. Duarte solid & looks risky but hasn't fought any name opposition... he's tough though. yeah, Oscar is probably tired of Ryan

Yea I'm lowkey thinking this too. Seems like a dumb ass move, but its Oscar so.......

Shoulda put him in with JoJo, who ppl know, & it'd be a bigger fight that does more for everyone involved.

Just watched some clips of Duarte. He throws nice compact punches, not wide hooks, I like that. He definitely can knock out garcia. We seen garcia dropped against a luke campbell then come back and hurt 35 year old luke with bodyshots but this duarte is 27 a young guy. Garcia is all offense no defense a bit like amir khan. If you are going to fight a big puncher, first thing you want is great defense.

duarte is on my pound for pound list and he's the best fighter from the philippines since manny pacquiao

pretty sure im looking at the right duarte and he is mexican. yeah i know theres a lot of filipino duartes and spanish words and chit.

let's hope he has more in his bag than mercito gesta.

i remember when gesta had a lot of hype surrounding him in the late 2000s/early 2010s. this was around the time that vanes martirosyan was supposed to be the next crossover superstar

when i first saw him fight, i thought he had great potential.

but he never diversified his fighting bag like pacquiao.

just head hunting for KOs.

sad. he had the athleticism and power to be a truly great fighter but didnt have the brains. unlike pacquiao.

I honestly thought that would happen before his fight with stank but it didn't happen. then a comeback fight to put some more stock on jojo and payday for both guys and good in house fight but wrong both times.

Oscar ain't letting cryan leave without a few losses. Assuming cryan doesn't pull out claiming mental issues again
