Comments Thread For: Easter Says Mikey Garcia is 'Going To Be a Win, An Easy Win'

Good belief in himself

Mickey-Mouse Garcia has been exposed to be a quitter when the going gets tough -- I remember how he 'won' his first fight vs. Salidoe : Mickey was doing great early on but when the tide turned he wanted out ASAP! If it wasn't for the doctor who knows what would of happened, all I know is that Salidoe never got his rematch.

So I say Robert should just go all out, like vs. Comney and hope for the best...One thing is for sure Robert Easter better not count on a rematch ; Mickey will jump up back to 140 and fight Maurice Hooker or something like that.

Man Salido head butted him and shattered his nose. Both doctors even tried to reset it so the fight could continue. Even with a proper reset he only had 1 maybe 2 rounds before it started gushing out. Heck Ortiz was suspended by the NAC for the same BS.

Robert fights like your sugesting hes getting KTFO. TERRIBLE plan for a much taller fighter with a HUGE almost 10" reach advantage.


Scrawny 6' tall long armed fighter bull rushes the much smaller with GREAT angles and foot work with some serious fire power??? Good Luck with that!

The ONLY plan Easter should have is fight tall and stick that long jab out and everytime Mikey gets past it wrap him up and lean all his weight on him until ref breaks it up. Rinse and repeat. Most of all make sure that jab is CONSTANTLY out there hitting Mikey everytime he tries to rush in.

All I'm reading from Easter is a bunch of boring textbook answers. And he doesn't go back and look at previous fights he's had? Really?? What kind of fighter doesn't use all of the tools he can use to stay in tune with where he's at and how he can progress? Last fight(s) mean nothing? Holy moly, I think Mikey will have an easier fight than I initially thought he'd have. He's very patient and has a bunch of different tools to work with. And Easter's last 3 fights were nothing to write home about. I'll be surprised if Mikey doesn't stop him in 8.

Yeah, you should spend HOURS reviewing certain fights with your trainer and see what worked and didn't work in that training camp.

Did the fighter do what we worked on?

Did he go back to bad habits we are trying to get away from?


No wonder why Easter always fights his opponents way...

I hope the odds are not too crazy for Mikey. I would like to bet Mikey and the under..

Easter seems to have taken this camp seriously.. he might be a better easter than the commey fight.. he always had the inside game so he ready for mikey!

"There were certain things we weren’t working on and focusing on that I knew I had to, but really wasn’t. I was really going into them fights fighting off talent, just fighting off talent. "

Those statements made me cringe a bit

Just don't see a path to victory for him. Too many bad habits. Like Roy says, when a guy gets into some trouble, he goes back to what he's accustomed to. I think we'll see that play out in this fight.

Mikey has fought the tougher opponents & Easter will be easy

Easter is learning how to fight and Mikey knows how to fight. Huge difference there. Mikey will school the still learning slower student Easter. Mikey by a stoppage.

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

easter either gonna be extremely ready for this fight or over trained like a mother****e90

He talked about patience, but got impatient in the interview responses. Distractions? If your not able to discipline your surroundings, how can you impose your style in the ring. I have a feeling this guy has way to much extra curricular activities going on his personal life.

It's good to be confident but don't take Garcia lightly. To say Garcia will be an easy win, I hope that is just talk.

I get every fighter believes or should believe they are going to beat the next fighter. I guess something along the lines like

"I believe in my skills, I have what it takes to win I will get my hand raised when it's all said and done." Boxing is mental so that might be the edge he is trying to give himself. I really don't expect it to be an easy fight for either fighter.
