    Wow, big step up for Garcia. Velez is not the best boxer but he is a tough guy. Ryan Garcia can really capitalize on this f4ckery that we call GGG vs Canelo.

          Sort of impressed for him doing this at 19. Kid would get ass no matter what so he didn't really need to test himself yet.

            I was thinking of Garcia as mostly modern day instagram hype creation - but I'll be paying attention if he gets through someone like Velez.
            Respect for stepping up either way.
            Velez does have a solid chin, if Garcia stops Velez itll really show the world something.

                Garcia is a knockout waiting to happen. Not too impressed with him so far, as he leaves his chin out and seems to have clunky movement. Props to stepping up tho. Hopefully he looks impressive and gets better
