NSB Pick 'em #22 - Mikey Garcia vs Adrien Broner, July 30

[KingHippo]

Broner by close decision. Love Mikey but the guy is too slow. Broner will overwhelm him with volume and will see Mikey's punches coming from a mile away given his superior reflexes.

[HarvardBlue]

I have Garcia by close decision. I don't like how Broner is undisciplined at times. He fights way below his potential. He'll cruise through a fight with no sense of urgency. I don't expect a KO from either fighter but I can see Garcia hurting Broner at some point.

I wish we could see the Broner up until the Maidana fight but that fighter doesn't exist anymore.

[Eff Pandas]

Everything tells me pick Garcia, but I legit think Broner gots a fire lit under his ass finally & all the prep stuff for this fight seems more on point so I'm leaning Broner. I also question Garcia's desire to dig deep for a sport he seems to not care as much for as the rest of his family & I feel like a for real Broner might require that of him.

I gotta wait til the weigh in to make my official pick here doe cuz Broner might hugely eff things up between now & the weigh in & completely alter what I'm feeling today & I'll end up going Garcia like almost everyone else.

[Fay]

Garcia should ud him

July 29, right?

[B Phontain]

I'm going for it y'all...... B phontain/ broner/ ko 1-4

All the logic in the world is saying Mikey, but only because of how broner been looking. Broners power and speed tho........I see Mikey getting sparked in the first few rds he ain't used to this

[Boxing56]

I think Broner wins.

Stuck in the teens so I have to do something to finish in the top 5..Broner's superior reflexes and Al Haymons ability to reach east coast judges..Broner close

Now that a lot more picks have come in, it looks like we're hovering around valuing the fighters pretty much in line with the betting odds (aka Mikey just over a 3/1 favorite).

Judging by how Broner has looked in camp and his claim that he was 144lbs a week out, giving Broner a decent shot to win might be fair afterall. Given how much better Broner has been doing with picks in the last few days compared with the first few days of the thread, I'm inclined to believe that people are buying into the idea that Broner is taking this camp more seriously than usual.



I'm sticking with Mikey though myself.
