Roberto Garcia vs Maidana

[dan_cov]

Is this the same guy being labelled a killer on here who got dropped, outboxed and a gift decision over a blown up Breidis Prescott?

Maidana rips his head clean off. He is awful!

[rogdogx]

Garcia will take Maidana's punch he has a solid chin and will. He will be the fighter coming forward in the fight. The problem with Garcia recently is he might be pacing himself just a bit too much. That could cost him stepping up against a guy like Maidana. He was a beast when he fought Freddy Hernandez. That Garcia stops Maidana or atleast badly rocks him and picks up the victory. Very interesting fight.

Garcia didn't looked impressive against Prescott, some say he lost that fight.
Maidana would KO him but there's lots of better fights for Chino.

Is that the dude Mathysse just fought? Maidana would wreck that dude man. Possibly stop him.

[dan_cov]

He is an even more limited Ruslan without the power. All he does is plod forward with no jab or head movement and telegraphs everything he throws. There is no skill or thought process in anything he does.

Maidana would split the guy in half. Total mismatch.

Much more lucrative fights out there for Maidana only purpose this guy would serve as is a stay busy fight. ESPN fighter

He sucks. Who are you kidding? No one who has watched him fight would favor him.

I think its the guy who recently beat Prescott, he's ageing abit now to be able to hang in there with the likes of Maidana and co. I don't think Margacheato bullied him at all not seen the fight in ages but I'm certain Margs was on his bike

He's no killer but he's a tough guy. He's limited just like Maidana, difference is I think he takes a better punch, is physically stronger and bigger. This guy went 10 rounds with Margs and had him boxing. He's tough as nails.

Garcia will take Maidana's punch he has a solid chin and will. He will be the fighter coming forward in the fight. The problem with Garcia recently is he might be pacing himself just a bit too much.

Agree with this.

Prescott boxed him. Maidana can't box, he would go toe to toe and I'm not sure it would end well for him.

He is an even more limited Ruslan without the power. All he does is plod forward with no jab or head movement and telegraphs everything he throws. There is no skill or thought process in anything he does.

He is very limited, but that's not a problem against somebody like Maidana who is also very limited and predictable. They are both there to be hit, it would come down to who takes a punch better and that's definitely Garcia.

For sure Maidana has better options, this is just a fight I'd like to see.

garcia should have lost to prescott, who dropped him in the process (and also seems shot). besides, i think garcia is thurman's next opponent.

btw. you can have an iron chin and be as tough as nails, but if you don't move your head, against a puncher like chino..... take a look at provo's face after bradley or herrera, both guys with little power..... you get the point?

I had Prescott winning the fight as well, but Prescott boxed. Styles make fights etc. The KD was a light KD. I've never seen prorerly Garcia hurt, albeit I've only seen a handful of his fights.

Provodnikov is just prone to cuts, I haven't really seen him hurt either.

I think a lot of people are dismissing Garcia's chances because they've never seen him fight. He's not very skilled but if you go toe to toe with him, you're in trouble.
