    Oscar does social media pretty well these days though. Some of those clap back Thursday’s were hilarious.

    He may win a few fights but a rocky balboa he'll never be. Sorry. Couldn't resist. Garcia gets millions of views per one thing sometimes. Oscar isn't on Ryan's level just like Ryan isn't on Oscars boxing level.

    He's a bit quicker than prime Oscar but he has a lesser quality technique. Also, Garcia's best punches are more powerful than Oscar's best.

    He’s a lot faster tbh. But Oscar is fundamentally way better.

    I think that related to the fights we all remember (Mosley, Quartey, Trinidad and so on) that you are absolutely right. However, the younger, lightweight Oscar was very quick.

    Oscar and Ryan are not in the same ballpark

    Probably a tad bit faster but other than that Garcia is nowhere near the same level as a prime Oscar in terms of all round ability.

    Skills with a rolling pin are vastly inferior.

    He's barely faster than De La Hoya

    Possibly a better right hand. That’s about it.
