Comments Thread For: Photos: Juanma Gets in Last Minute Work For Garcia

I would be shocked if Lopez wins this fight.

He's not outboxing Garcia and if he trys to force the fight on a consistent basis he'll get picked off and hurt IMO. He doesn't really look comfortable forcing a fight anyway. He strikes me as an in-and-out type fight expect when he jumps in he doesn't get out

His defense is horrible IMO. On the backfoot he's so open to so many punches and he just lacks skills IMO.

I can't really see any area he's better than Garica in. He's getting stopped late.

I'm not so sure.

I strongly believe he is, but I don't think his next fight will prove it as Juanma has been through too many wars. This is a fight Garcia is suppose to win, win without much trouble.

Garcia might have a high KO ratio but the difference of calibur of oppoition between Salido and Garcia is night and day.

Garcia may have dropped Salido 500 times but those who follow Salido's career know and have seen previous to that fight that Salido's resistance has been declining drastically for quite some time.

I look at the two of them, and Salido looks like he's probably the harder puncher to me. He's dropped/hurt/stopped much higher calibur fighters than Garica has.

Is it just me or does Lopez left eye appear bruised?

Lopez is getting stopped before 9th round....They fed Juanma a few scrubs to build up a few wins(after his 2nd lost to Salido) & he still didn't look impressive against them & took many unnecessary shots in those fights before stopping them..García should beat him easily..

Mikey Garcia has some huge forearms, dude has power and he will hurt and drop JuanMa.

I hope Juanma can pull this one somehow. He is exciting.

Putting points on a friendly bet on Juanma don't know why and don't care to elaborate except to say that he's been through allot in his career, and at this very stage its Russian roulette for him and he knows it..some fighters are extremely dangerous when they're put in this position no matter how deteriorated they look alas Juanma/Salido 1,2 so a long shot upset won't surprise me. First come first serve with pm's

I like Juanmas style but he's looked slow in his last couple fights I'll be surprised if he can land any thing but a couple jabs on Mikey.
Mikey by KO in the 9th.

I already feel bad for Juanma

I was at Madison Square Garden small arena when Juanma fought Rogers Matagwa a journey man who almost ko'd Juanma, Matagwa doesn't have ko power, but early on Juanma expended to much energy and later tired. Mikey is smart will take his time, has power, will ko Juanma, I hope i'm wrong.
