Comments Thread For: Canelo Feels Mikey Garcia Has a Very Tough Task With Spence

[JuniorTorres720]

Saying Garcia "may" have a problem moving up to 147 to fight one of the better WW who actually could move up to 154 tomorrow if he wants to is not going out on a limb. I am calling it: A coyote "might" have a problem handling a grizzly in the wild.

Garcia is an easy top 10 fighter and is a live dog in this fight. But he is the easy underdog. This is a strange decision to make when a Lomanchenko tussle could arguably make him more money in a near 50/50 fight.

Garcia vs Loma is a great fight but don't forget about bad falling out Garcia and Top Rank had. Arum is a good promoter and knows how to promote his guys that's why he's been a promoter for so long. But with that being said he'll be strategic with who his fighters face next and he has a tendency to match them up in house. Rarely does he go out of those bounds and it's tougher to see him doing it with Garcia considering their fall out. Let's hope cooler heads prevail though.

I would have gave Khan a better chance of beating Canelo than Garcia beating Spence. Only because of Khan's foot speed but the world knew once Canelo tap, not hit, tap his chin, he was going down.

Far as Garcia, I don't know where he can hide once he's in the ring with Spence.

I think M. Garcia is a much smarter boxer than Khan, but then again, most are. After about 4 rounds Khan starts falling apart mentally. I can see Mikey actually ahead on the cards at the midway point if he is on his bike and boxes, but don't think he can keep Spence off him the whole fight.
Like Jermell Charlo said, Spence's punching power is barely human, and Mikey will find that out. So like other's have said, the towel will be thrown in late in the fight. Spence breaks guys down, then stops them. Not a one punch KO guy.

Canelo speaking like true weight bully.

Like attracts like.

Lmao wat about Khan?

You might be right on that, lol!

Khan knows deep down his chin is as soft as baby wipes and yet he still fights! That takes either delusional confidence or more heart than your average Joe!

Khan moved up 8 pounds for Canelo

Brook moved up 13 pounds for ggg

Mikey is moving up 12 pounds for Spence

I guess people don't give Khan the same credit since he refuses to fight virtually everyone else lol.

Yep and lost both fights. Now going for the weakest non-belt at 168.

that may be, but to call him a coward?

When GGG himself didn't moved up a single pound to face better opposition and instead, dragged welterweights and super welterweights to fight him.

Mikey has the biggest cajones in boxing right now, him and Kell Brook!

I would’ve added Rigo in there but the way he ended that fight made me believe he predetermined that if things don’t go his way he’ll make an excuse to get out of it!

Well, Brook's cajones cost him his career, he hasn't been the same since Golovkin smashed his socket.

Courage is nine-tenths context. What is courageous in one setting can be foolhardy in another and even cowardly in a third.
