    Why is Mikey acting so confident?

    I think Errol is gonna win this fight. But Mikey's confidence has been bothering/annoying me. And it seems to be pissing off Spence too. The whole situation gives me a weird vibe.

    Why is Mikey so calm in the face of utter annihilation?

    Either total self belief or a real good game face... I'm guessing the former, but if you do think it's the latter then your question should be 'how..?' not 'why...?'. The why should be obvious.

        The mfer better be confident. He has no business in that ring wasting all of our time if he’s not 100% sure he can win.

          Ot doesn't matter the reason, I think it shows that he truly wanted this fight and he wasn't trying to use Spence's name for publicity

            Mikey has a very high boxing IQ and saw the same things I saw when Spence fought Brook, most say the Petersen fight but this is from their lack of experience. Petersen was either paid or told to stand there in front of Spence when he put on a footwork and movement showcase against Garcia. Let's just say Spence NEEDs to be coming forward the whole fight in order to dominate. Mikey has a plan for that......

              he truly believes he is better

              his brother and father are putting on an act though

              they went from advising him to stay at 140 and saying it is crazy to fight spence to robert garcia smiling but hiding that he is super nervous when spence said "it's gonna be a one-sided massacre, he is gonna wish he took his brother's advice not to take the fight"

                Mikey is going to shock everyone.It was the Peterson fight if you listen to the in conversation between rounds Peterson was frustrated he says I’ve tried everything I can’t keep him off me when they were trying to get him to start moving again.He was beat and ready to quit at least two rounds before his corner stopped because he was not very vocal when he was asked do you want me to stop it by his trainer.That was where Mikey got his balls Spence performance was not that great when he couldn’t take out a beaten fighter who was ready to quit for a few rounds.Spence is a great fighter but you guys have made him a god over a couple of fights.

                  Why shouldn't an undefeated highly skilled boxer be confident he can beat anyone? I'm sure he has sparred with welterweights many times before and feels he can handle anyone in that weight class. It's not like he's moving up to HW and thinks he can beat AJ or something like that. Even though I pick Spence to win, it's still a fight where Garcia could win.
