    At least Garcia didn't make any excuses

    Ryan said he was going to conquer but after the first trouble and he couldn't throw anymore. If you gonna get KO'd you might as well go out on your terms and throw. His shots were too high and Goosen really sucks for someone that been in the game forever.

    Garcia showed a lot of class in losing.

    I don't doubt that the punch hurt him but he was not incapacitated and got up right as the ref reached the count of 10

    Honestly it didn't even look like he got full leverage as the commentators noted. Garcia just quit.

    It didn't look cinematic but it was perfectly positioned and timed, the arm snapped out straight, and caught García backing up & breathing out. It had plenty for the circumstances.

    Amateur fights are mostly point scoring punches, this fight was full of power shots. Both fighters were clearly aiming for knockouts from the opening bell.

    Might want to be more realistic with your hate unless you're only looking to fart out negativity.

    That body shot looks way to soft to be real, looks real fishy to me.

    Yes he did but he talked a lot of smack beforehand.

    Did you hear that? Garcia is not making excuses, so why are you?

    He did but Twink would never have taken a fight against someone as good as himself even at 28, let alone at 24. The experience difference was massive though. Ryan's resume is way worse than Twink's and Twink's is trash for a top level fighter.
