    To be fair. Fortuna was winning that fight pretty easily, **** happens. Getting stopped does'nt make him a bad opponent. Certainly not a top choice, but not like he is some bum.

      I don't hate the match-up, but Fortuna's style matches up horribly against a sniper like Garcia. He can be too loose with his offense, but his defense isn't tight enough to save him from sticky situations. If Mikey hurts him, I don't see Fortuna being able to ward him off.

        It's a good fight against a guy with a super awkward style but what happened to Linares?

            Fortuna is dangerous but wild as ****, this could be another highlight reel KO for Mikey.
            100% agree, mikey shouldn't have any problems putting him away.

              You clearly didn't see the fight. Fortuna was well ahead when he was caught by a lucky shot by Sosa. Fortuna beats Sosa 9 out of 10 times.

                All that talk and he's about to fight a dude moving up in weight that just got KO'd? This is a big letdown.

                    I've seen it multiple times.

                    He was getting caught repeatedly with the same shots for the final few rounds. A 'lucky shot'? It was a 3 punch combination, started by the overhand right that Sosa was throwing throughout.

                    All the big talk and he's instead going to fight a guy coming up in weight that was previously stopped by someone Lomachenko utterly clowned.

                      Yet somehow when Mikey beats him that will be an amazing win.

                      I like Mikey, but lets stay consistent people.
                      I like how literally every comment before yours is talking about how it's an easy win for Garcia and you're trying to accuse them of hyping the fight up.
