I'm thinking about it. I'll get back to you when the fight draws closer, he has a fairly decent chance.
No but the fact that there are so few giving him a chance to pull it off and are so sure he won't actually makes me think he might lol
I'm definitely picking him to have a better showing than most on here believe he will. He poses some problems physically that Mikey will need to overcome, on top of that, he's just a tough SOB. If only he'd fight on the outside.......smh
Easter's lucky his hasn't gone already. A lot of people thought he was very fortunate to get the nod against Fortuna (see what Serge did there?) and ditto for his fights against Commey and Shafikov too. Two of the judges didn't give Shafikov a single round which was just disgraceful and they also robbed Ivan Golub blind on the undercard for that one too.
Robert Easter Jr. who almost lost to Fortuna? I don't pick him. But can a boxer who is 5′ 11″ tall with 76″ reach beat Mikey Garcia? That's quite possible. But is Easter Jr. that boxer? I'm not sure at all.
Bout time we see eye to eye on something! If Garcia has difficulty with the length of Easter, it can prove to be a very tough fight for MG. Long rangey guys can give technically sound fighters like MG all kinds of business. Should be a good fight regardlesss of who wins.
really to me its all about how hard can easter punch ?? flat out some fights its more then that. but really if easter hits hard he should be able to out box him. mikey is gonna have to take some to give some im sure at least in the early rounds and easter will be fresh. so easter needs to make a statement quick . if not mikey will chop away at the body applying smart calculated pressure and he will try to chop down that tree. and eventually mikey will if easters power isnt a threat. which really honestly i dont know. he seems to hit fairly hard but is it hard enough? i may be underestimating easter saying his only chance is if he has power. but i say that because mikey is way more ready for this fight imo. way more fights been pro much longer. hes very fresh doesnt have much ring age . he always avoiding any major punishment. if easter isnt super crafty with the jab an great defense . and is smart enough and or good enough to save his go to weapons till later on in the fight because if he uses his little tricks to early with out any power mikey will figure them out and capitalize on them and i kno mikey is ready hes smart and to me perfected his craft way better. the little things that alot people dont notice mikey perfected. he picks his shots , all punches quality, defensive minded, great jab , great body shots , mentally hes a beast. broner couldnt talk any trash to mikey . what is the point??? hes just gonna ignore you and ur going to motivate him.
