Is Mikey Garcia another Adrien Broner?

[Mister Wolf]

Both are overrated.

[baroidi]

Mikey wouldn't be getting so much heat if he wasn't so arrogant leading up to the fight, only to put up a stinker and get totally dominated for all 12 rounds...but he survived doe lol

[MPX309]

He will be if he doesn't go back down

[TonyGe]

I thought it was foolish for Mikey to move up. I give him.credit for finishing on his feet but he has no business at 147 it's too big a jump in weight. Mikey should move back down where he doesn't have to deal with a skilled boxer that is much bigger than him.

[boliodogs]

I think he is much better than Broner because he easily beat him recently.

[satiev1]

Both 4 division champs with weak opposition. When they stepped up against flawed big guys they got thoroughly dominated. I see the parallel. Both have the skills but simply do not have the physical gifts.


What u think?

Mikey is better, but it's funny you mention this. My dad brought this up last week. He mentioned broner used to knock out smaller weaker opposition and once he moved up all the power was gone. Also opposition became better.

[nacho daddy]

I mean the fact he thoroughly beat Broner shows he's not Broner or on that level lol.

And the OP said when they faced big flawed fighters they got beat. Um, Spence is an elite WW, rated no lower than 2nd. No shame in losing to someone like him.

the Garcia-broner fight was sh i t and broner did not get dominated

Not even close imo Garcia has avoided a certain style(fast feet)but has many wins vs top opp.Broner has none except A Demarco(bottom top 10) and P Malignaggi(bottom top 10 at best at 47 better @ 40).Mikey has beaten Salido,Martinez,Easter,Lippenets and he beat Broner so don't think comparison is anywhere near imo.

Good points he has only lost to PFP type guy who was bigger.Dont see how you can compare them and that's even with forgetting he beat Broner and easy.

You think Broner > Mikey? LMAO!!!!!

Where did I say that?

I think Mikey is a really good boxer who got outclassed by a bigger, much better fighter.

Broner has natural gifts but let his talent squander because of his lack of discipline.

Mikey is complete fighter who had a temporary set back.

Broner has a lot more losses, run-in with the law, and unnecessary drama in his future.
