Mikey is gonna have to box beautifully for 12 rounds to win this, he’s gonna have to show us something we have never seen from him.
The odds are getting closer too.

Do you think that he’s skilled enough and evasive to avoid eventually getting walked down or stop? I’m not that high on Spence “skill wise” or whatever as a lot are ...but I mean he’s does have 10 straight stoppages or some shyt.. hes never faced a boxer of Mikey’s caliber, but just the fact That Garcia’s first fight at 147 is against the Divisions ‘Boogeyman’ it’s played out and cliche but can’t do anything but salute that Wish he was a Cac Bruh.
Poor Mikey
I don’t think so, I actually think Spence will dominate and quite possibly ruin Mikey.
But the closer the fight gets I’m starting to believe that maybe we are in for something special from the smaller guy.

I said this in Mikey’s over Easter thread..
I truly can see Mikey walking away whether it be retirement or a hiatus if he takes an L.
A supremely talented boxer, shyt a hall of famer.. but he always strikes me as a guy who never really has that passion like the other greats do. He seems more into cars and other miscellaneous white people shyt ..it just so happened that he was born into a boxing family and it was an easy to make a living.
Hopefully this fight can live up to its potential. Shame the undercard is trash but I’ll be in the plush recliner seats at the Theater to catch this one
Robert throwing in the towel in the fifth, this narrative people have mikey being some great boxer is just false, this fight is purely for monetary reasons because he not working with bob so he will never fight loma or crawford, he really got nowhere else to go so he cashing out
If he was serious about campaigning at welterweight he would take on matthysee or somebody like that first
I mean damn even Floyd took a tune up fight when he first went at 147 before fighting Judah for the IBF belt
In that Salido fight after dropping Salido all those times he couldn't get him out and salido was actually was coming back the last couple rounds the before the fight was stopped, he was getting to mikey body at will, imagine the devastation spence is going to unfold on this boy, the ass whooping will be glorious
Lipnets was eating those left hooks from mikey flush, spence walking through his punches
people talking about mikey skills like he crawford or something, I don't see it, he would struggle against Peterson, and would lose to Danny, he has zero chance against spence, but I respect the promotional skills of the Garcia Family both robert and their dad wanted no smoke, they knew what time it was, then completely flip the script because they realize they could get the bag with that big ass stadium and the back end ppv, talking that got people actually believing Spence can be out classed and hurt by Mikey its unbelievable lmao
Was thinking similar. Was Chris Algieri available or someone else before jumping right in with Spence who is clearly capable of fighting at 154 and 160.
If you watch Miley’s training videos and use common sense....Mikey had 4 months to gain weight w Conte then 3 to train and lose it which it looks like he in the 150s.
Spence gets the nod 60/40 based off size nh. If you adjust your boxing eyes you can see what Big G sees. If Mikey can execute that, not fight a perfect fight, he’ll win.
We'll see what happens when Spence is pushed...the pressure from Spence will be relentless.
It’s funny bc when you’re objective you have okay boxing eyes. Your proxy Floyd dikkeiding blinds em though. Any amateur analyst can see the obvious flaws to exploit in Spence. If you got the eye you see what the Garcia’s see, and you realize it’s execution of the plan......nothing else.
What hell are you talking about, dikk riding FLoyd, I'm speaking facts, are people dikk riding Jordan because what he does great, I only said Floyd will win against his opponents and guess what he won, what the fukk are you talking about dikk riding, fukk outta here
there is nothing to exploit, Mikey is not on Spence's level, he's not a defensive wizard he gets hit with heavy shots in every fight even broner heart him to the body he does not have the power to make spence respect him, he does not have the durability to go the distance with Spence he is getting beat down
Spence spars with heavyweights, the fact people think this fight will be close or that Mikey is a threat to spence is proof people just talk out of their ass and don't have any clue of what they are saying
There's a video of Robert saying he wanna be friends with Spence so he can take it easy on mikey back when the fight was first being mad lmao, now he talking big shyt lmao because he selling the fight, and all you wanna be experts soaking it up, looking at weakness that ain't there
Mikey Garcia ain't Kell brook, Kell Brook can't even make 147 no more, that's why he at 54, he was already the biggest welterweight Spence could fight and he chopped him down after being inactive waiting for the title shot and going over to his country to do it
Mikey getting tagged by looping punches from Lipinets, I fail to see this boxing greatness, he feasted on smaller guys in talentless divisions he has the most padded record out of any active fighter, Salido was hurting him to the body with ease, he got dropped by Martinez, looked pedestrian against Easter and Broner who both would only last 4 rounds against Spence, I mean this is getting ridiculous, but this why I spence took the fight to raise his profile, he only gonna fight on PPV after destroying Garcia is devastating fashion

RIP MR. SMOKE
Fight got my hyped. Great clash of styles. But I still can't get over how broners body shots had mikey lookin spooked. There's only one way mikey can win this....by having insane movement and insane stamina. I think spence can hurt him badly with one body shot so mikey is really gonna have to stick and move. Not only that but mikey is gonna have to counter some of spences body shots early on to make spence hesitant to go back there. He has to earn spences respect early. I think mikey is gonna try to move and then pick up steam as the fight goes on.
This is such an insteresting fight to pick apart. But mikey's weakness to the body is a big red flag. He has the skills just not sure he has the durability. But wouldn't be shocked if he pulled it off. I'm just hoping for a great fight. Not that danny garcia vs Thurman bullshyt. But a real high intensity chess match where both guys are willing to take some damage. But already knowing how both of these guys fight, I don't think it'll be any other way. I feel like this is gonna be another throwback fight. We need more fights like canelo-little g. They set the bar for the sport by really going to war on the biggest stage. that's what people wanna see. Even mma fans are excited about this fight. It's drawing a lot of interest.

Cause your whole love for Spence came from his giving Floyd a black eye lol.
You can say Spence spars heavyweights, but it’s a fact (unlike mostly conjecture which you posted) but he started at 154 and dropped down. Anyways Mikey IS there to be hit. He is also always in position to evade punches, even in the the pocket. Errol’s whole style is coming forward applying pressure. So what happens when you got a dude with crude footwork, circling to his left? You run him into your left hand, make him reset pop him with the right and get out. Eventually Spence is going to get tired of pushing himself into right hands and resetting. That’s when Mikey will have his best chances, because Errol isn’t capable of making adjustments on the same level as Garcia. Garcia just needs to keep Spence’s feet moving and he’ll be okay.
