    People with good reach and skills can clearly outboxed this bum Broner.

    The danger here is that Garcia is not a tall 140 pounds.
    I alway get the impression its not skills that beat Broner but high work rate and aggression because to me he it seems he just can't fight off the back foot or at a high pace

          Exactly, people hate Broner and judge his boxing on his personality, the dude can f***ing fight, he's a 4 division champion. I put money on Broner to win.

            name all the great boxing wins he has??? 4 division champ and who did he beat??? the guy prob should have lost to ponce de leon and almost lost to shot paulie so i dont want to hear about his amazing "slick skills" also he coudlnt "outfight" maiana or porter who roughed him up and beat him with ease. unless he has the perfect opponent(someone preferrably old/retired and who has no defense comes straigth forward) he sucks

                Mikey trying to bait Boner to take note & attention to this old fight so that he can surprise Boner. Switch & bait tactic. Will boner bite?

                  He's gonna gas. He fought ashley theopane or whatever his name is at a catchweight and he said he had to kill himself.

                  147 is where he belongs but he can't hang with any of the top dogs.

                  Expect him to make weight but he'll gas midway thru the fight

                    It's power too he doesn't know what to do when a guy can punch harder or out muscle him. His resume is full of pillow punches aside from maidana porter

                      I clearly remember Garcia losing an early fight and then getting a gift. Garcia was defeated that day. It was around the time Brandon Rios was first seen on TV.
