Breh if you been paying attention we been dropping this science for weeks
It’s different coming from the fighter, either way I’m sure he doesn’t care if he’s saying it.

The closer the fight gets I’m finding myself rooting for Garcia :mjpls:


I like rooting for the underdog :troll:

Its called facts, They was standing in trading against each other so he got hit with shots he didn't get hit with by Kell Brook, just like he didn't do anything to kell Brook, I mean Keith took way more damage than Brook did lmao, it was a wrestling match in their fight so of course he didn't get hit with shots to even compare the power lmao

By the way no offense to anybody this is just an argument I’ve been having for years with my bro he’s a Thurman Stan and I’ve just never seen it so maybe I’m just missing the boat
I wish Thurman had as much confidence in taking out Spence as his stans do, maybe we would have seen the fight by now instead of him being out damn near 2 years from a procedure that Joseph Parker came back from in a few months.

I just don't want to see Mikey knocked out cold :to:. I'm a big fan of both, and so it's hard to root against either guy, but I am definitely pulling for the upset, just to see if Mikey can do it.

Mikey is not a slouch. He's an elite fighter. He's too small, though and Spence is a terrible matchup for him. I hope he doesn't plan on banging with Spence. He keeps talking like this is gonna be a war, but I don't see it. I see a tactical fight, at least for the first 8 rounds.

Veteran trainer Teddy Atlas is in the minority, but he's giving Mikey Garcia a very good shot to pull off the upset on IBF welterweight champion Errol Spence.

This coming Saturday night, Garcia will challenge Spence for his world title at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Garcia is currently the WBC's world champion at 135-pounds, and take a huge risky by moving up in weight by two full divisions to take on the tough task of facing Spence.
Spence is widely viewed as being too big, too strong for Garcia, who started his career as a featherweight and won world titles in four weight divisions.

Garcia has never fought beyond the junior welterweight limit of 140-pounds, and Spence is likely heading to junior middleweight in the near future.

Despite all of that, Atlas explains why he believes Garcia can get the job done.

“I do [like his chances] as long as he feints before delivering his punches,” Atlas said to Premier Boxing Champions.

“Mikey is a terrific technical boxer. So, it is imperative that he doesn’t give up his defense for offense. Mikey has to get in and get out, put his punches together and not get too greedy. By getting off first, essentially Mikey is cutting the side of the beef off, by simply cutting the sides off and not the middle, Mikey can take small bites of the beef.”

“People think that the only way to win a fight is by a fighter exploiting the flaws in his opponent. Forget about what [Spence] does bad. Mikey must prevent Spence from doing everything that he does well. Everyone is (saying) that Mikey is at a disadvantage because he is the smaller man. No, he’s not (at a disadvantage.) As a result of being the smaller man, Mikey is quicker, he’s more fleet-footed against the more cement-footed Spence."
