Comments Thread For: Spence's Trainer: This Fight is 'Going To Be Hell' For Mikey Garcia

[JWHardin]

I worry about the body shots...and I think we all know that the longer the fight goes the harder it's going to get for Garcia. I think it's too much. But huge props and mad respect.

He's gotta try and work the tempo down, make it a thinking man's fight. Use the pinpoint accuracy to get the respect...and repeat for 33 more minutes!!

I think back on the Lamont Peterson fight. I thought Peterson would give him a hell of a fight since he nearly beat Danny Garcia, but Spence just broke him down, and basically just beat him up, and Peterson is a good boxer. Same with Brook, who beat Porter easier than Thurman did. Jermell Charlo says Spence's power is barely human. Looking forward to this one.

First, this is not a grammar class. Second, when I said he not lying is because I analyze some holes in Spence that Garcia can exploit and I draw that conclusion as a boxing fan. Like some other users who have analyze Spence have some holes and drew their own conclusion in this site that Garcia can do to make the upset. I am not the first and I am not the last.

I know it ain't grammar class I just cringe when ppl still call him mickey. Ok I mean I think spence will be beaten at some point when he moves up in competition. I mean a guy with a broken face moving down 2 weight classes was neck n neck with him until the inevitable happened. I think crawford schools him. I think Thuman beats him, I think Porter can beat him. But I just don't think Garcia comes close because I think about Garcia as about the same level skill wise and talent wise as Spence. So anyway...what are the exploitable holes that YOU see?

Remember the fear in Easter's face during his dance with Garcia? At what round does Spence start to grip? Anyone willing to take on a much smaller opponent is usually unsure of themselves. Why else would they look to fight those with such a disability I.E. Ocampo. Not that Ocampo isn't capable of being a champ he is levels away from that skill and experience. Spence knew that and jumped all over that fight and bragged about it and disrespected the kid he fought. Now that's all Spence! GO GARCIA!!!!

I am rooting for Mikey but don't see him winning. Still think Spence is a bit overrated though.

[Yaconcha]

You are the first person I have seen pick Garcia straight up. Props to you if Garcia wins.

its a jump but to me, he is like Erik morales in terms of discipline and skill. Spence has yet to face a fighter of this intelligence.

I see some people are forgetting that GARCIA CALLED OUT SPENCE! whatever happens to Garcia afterwards is his fault. Now I did see Brook giving Spence some work early on in the fight but Brook is world class let's not forget

Definitely a bad fight for mikey. I wish they would've tried harder in talking him out of it. What he saw was spence taking a lot of punches. But that was against actual WWs. Brook was a big WW with much more power than mikey and couldn't get it done. He should've wenty after crawford or loma who are smaller and a better match up for now.

Exactly...

Mikey is a light weight...beating him proves nothing.

Crawford beat Mikey up in the amateurs, bad style for Mikey and Spence both.

[Punch on Tap]

You mean Mikey has some huge balls on him??? Mikey Garcia calls out bigger guys, Spence calls out smaller guys and somehow you give Spence credit? OK

That’s a lie. Never heard Spence mention Mikey one time prior to Mikey calling him out.

The only people Spence JR has been falling out is people that fight in his weight class.

Stop it.
