Fucck the all star game buncha grown muthac***in men playin a child’s game lol

I rather go to any fight over wathching adult men play children games

But ya keep on sheeping.

I like the hate for Garcia already that just means ya muthacuxkers gonna make him riaaachhh!!!!

You are reaching guy. Where was the hate for Ryan Garcia. I think the kid is a good prospect. I want to see him in good fights. This fight was a nice step up. He passed with flying colors.

What we are saying is the week that they chose for Ryan’s fight and the lack of great promotion will impact viewership numbers. No need for speculation let’s just see what happens with the numbers.

But no one on this thread believes this is a genius business decision as you propose. I missed an interesting fight with a great prospect because of the timing. I suspect, many also missed it for the same reason.

Fighters who are not afraid to step up and take risks as a means to prove that they're the real deal, not fighters who wait around and fight their enemy's leftovers. Look how quick Teofimo became a world champion in just 15 pro fights and is now close to finalizing a deal with Loma. What has Garcia done lately? 19 fights and still no belt.

everyone progresses differently. If you use Teofimo as a benchmark, why not use Wilfred Benitez as a bechmark who became champion at 17.
Why are the majority of prospects taking their sweet time?

Some take longer, some less time. As long as they are not champion, they can do what they want.
But as soon as they hold a title, there shouldn't be any excuses to fight fighter x or fighter y anymore.

After that short performance which I would have liked to have lasted so we can get an idea how much Ryan has progressed, his promoter and Ryan himself feel he's ready for Linares. Set it up!
