Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia: Spence is The Truth, I Couldn't Get Rhythm Going

[Nomadic]

The great things about Latinos is Spence probably picked up a bunch of them as fans too. As a group, they recognize greatness while Americans of both color typically just become fanboys and haters.

So true!

Still don't understand why garcia need to go up two weigh division to get a great fight like this while he can have equally great and winnable fights at lightweight and super lightweight. So the result was as expected and he didn't gave good fight with spence....

My sentiments exactly, but for some reason in boxing you get more cred from the fans for trying ridiculously difficult un-winable tasks and failing than you do for being your best.

Its akin to Tom Brady deciding he wants to go play Linebacker just to 'prove his greatness' and 'challenge himself'.

I found Garcia disappointing , he had half a plan and not much else. Interestingly enough it seems Spence didn't want to charge in and run Mikey over until the last rounds where it was ineffective. Maybe he lacks confidence in his skills that he basically just used reach to keep Mikey on the outside. If I were Garcia and see that the bigger guy is not closing the distance then it's time to change up and start bobbing and weaving to get inside like Jono Carroll did against Farmer.

You're not a fan you're a punk a s s. Boxing fan my ass. Mikey tried and Spence did what he does. Spence beats Crawford. Crawford has fought s h i t his whole career.

Your momma likes it. I would have been your daddy if a punk didn't beat me to it.

Keep that same energy

exactly!



seriously...I don't want to hear "oh what a masterful performance...he outboxed a fuc.kin lightweight with NO POWER! Weak sh.it going 12.

I guarantee your tone was different before the fight but you certainly had your excuses ready I'm sure Lopez....we know what it is

Funny thing is that asked Loma would be ever do what Mikey just did and he basically said hell no lol. Brave and dumb are not synonyms.

Nope. It's used in every sport here in the states,

Lmaooooooooo...what did you "see?" Spence was flawless. Crawford has NEVER been that flawless. Spence beats him. Bet you picked Mikey fanboy.

I didn't pick Mikey but I was cheering for him. Crawford is A LOT more skillful than Spence. Spence "THE BUM" will be exposed

So you went from if Mikey wins he is P4P #1, which means you thought he had a chance at winning. Then it was if Spence doesn't stop Garcia he loses cred, as if Mikey can be KOd or doesn't know how to survive. A 140 guy went 12 with a 147 guy. Shame on the 147 guy for allowing it to go twelve.

Just seems like no matter what happens with Spence, or any of the fighters that would oppose the fighters your like, you are going to attempt to trash or put them down.
