Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia: Even Though Pacquiao Looked Great Against Thurman, I Can Take Him Out

[JakeTheBoxer]

Even at this age Pacquiao beats Mikey easily.

Mikey is ideal opponent for him: big fanbase ( mexican heritage), well known, fight will sell; not dangerous at all

This is even easier than Matthysse and Broner

Sounds like Mikey's people and fanbase AND his ego are gushing away making him think he did better vs Vargas than he actually did. Vargas was clocking him nearly at random, and that's two fights in a row where he took way too much incoming. He needs to get back in the gym after a rest, start working on basics, tighten up all aspects of his game... then fight Porter or Garcia or similar. He could possibly challenge Formella for the title, but even that seems outta range right now. IMO Spence took something out of Mikey. Hope he can find it again.

Formella for IBO welterweight title? Low reward; isn`t it?

Manny for the win if this happens

[elfag]

lol he barely got by "shot" vargas.

vargas had better speed and landed the cleaner shots for a lot of the rounds.


I even had vargas winning the 11th and 12th.

Those judges cards were crooked except the one 114-113 card. So mikey was going to win no matter what.

No Mikey, you can’t.

It depends on how the fight goes. If he overcomes adversity to win, it could be a good fight for him. Formella is no push over, even if he isn't well known. But no matter, Mikey has some hard work to do in the gym beforehand.
