There have been fighters that have dealt with reach advantage much better than Garcia did here, what was his plan?
Yea, those were advantages that he couldn't overcome and then Spence's non-stop motor made it even harder on the smaller man.
I thought Mikey showed great defense though. He spent most of the night receiving shots and he did well in defending them. Just couldn't do anything offensively. Although the truth is, when all you do is defend, it's easier to do it.
It wasn't just reach and height it was also strength, Mikey just could not hit hard enough to slow down the pressure.
Well he tried to go inside, and Spence was even better there. Spence's speed difference on the inside was clear. He was beating him up there.
Garcia looked slow and sluggish compared to Spence, do you think the extra weight at welter slow Garcia down? His body looked soft.
Too many people overrated Garcia's chances before the fight. Height and reach, when used correctly is an incredibly advantage. Garcia's fans didn't take all the factors into consideration when you move up in weight like this.
His head movement was awful, CAnelo`s head movement v the bigger GGG was much better, Canelo P4P is far better than Garcia.
Possible. For me it's that Mikey is mostly a counter puncher. He had no chance here. I knew it was over after like the 3rd-4th round when I noticed he couldn't reach him. It looked like it was going to be a Mayweather type of fight, every round is the same, the other guy looking hopeless.
It was, but Mikey was also reluctant to throw with the fear of being open &a countered There were times where Mikey was on the inside and not throwing. That’s where he needed to work!!
