Who else isn't convinced Mikey Garcia easily beats Easter?

Mikey is a far superior boxer and will know how to negate Easter's height and reach. He will get inside and find his spots. He will counter Easter every time and Easter will eventually fight scared, not wanting to get caught with a counter. I see this as an easy win for Mikey. Easter is on borrowed time.

With that said, I've seen daily training clips of Easter. The guy is training HARD in the gym. And from the mitt and bag work I have seen, it doesn't look like the plan is to stay in the pocket. It looks like they are focusing on speed, 2 punch combinations, and lateral movement. If anything I have said it before, Easter has all the physical attributes to make
this fight UGLY. If the ref allows it, Easter can hit and hold to a decision. With an 8inch reach, 5inches in height, and a handspeed difference Easter should not be taken lightly nor should Mikey win it be considered easy.
Thoughts?

My thoughts are Mikey wins easily by KO. Easter was lucky to win his last fight. I think Mikey is faster, hits harder and has better timing and accuracy than Easter. Mikey is smart enough and skillful enough to deal with Easter's long reach. Nobody knows for sure how a fight between two champions ends in advance. My pick is Mikey by KO or easy ud.

In order for Mikey to win this fight, hes going to have to take some punishment.
