Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia on Russell's Performance, Facing Juanma

[STEELHEAD]

Maybe its because he was fighting a can who wouldn’t even attack when Russel only had one hand, I hope to never see that guy in the ring again. He literally got beat the last 3 rounds with one hand.

Anyway most slick fast boxers tend to have problems with guys of Mikey Garcia’s talent, guys that are patient and have great timing, and great counter punchers usually are problems for fast fighters.

you said that right!!! thanks

Damn, I just realized that GR jr is with GB, but he's calling out JuanMa, not happening.

anyone who agrees with this just don't know boxing.

Russell is not slick. he's fast with a high work rate (& he can box) he's more of a joe calzaghie kinda fighter. he's not slick at all in my book...........


if mickey sat back and tried to fight russell at a slow pace he would get outclassed (hypothetically. IF russell is the goods that he's showed against lower grades)

mickeys timing & counter punching can be a negative for him because mickey waits with his counter punching too much. when you wait as much as mickey you can set yourself up to be outclassed (like kessler vs calzaghie) mickey waits a lot.........i really liked when mickey would pressure fighters but he stopped doing this.

Whether GRJ i the goods or not, his activity will drop against a guy as sharp and hurtful as Mikey, especially considering his reach disadvantage. He'd probably still outland Mikey, but he won't just unload with impunity like with these scrubs.

Would be a great fight.

Why does he want to fight Juama? That's a random ass person to call out and he's with Top Rank.
