I dont think Johnny Gonzalez is that much of a test because as soon as Garcia touches that chin night night Gonzalez. I think even someone as simple as Juan Ruiz will answer all these questions more than somone like Concepcion. Hes a journyman fighter with a nice work rate and hard chin. Concepcion has a a lot of power but low workrate and can easily be out boxed by a skilled technician. Garcia looks like the kind of guy that should be my financial lawyer not a man getting his head bashed in.
True Gonzales chin isnt all that. However he can punch and box. He would definitely test Garcias boxing IQ along with his chin. Rafa Marquez? That sounds like a war to me.
Yea that would be good too. Although i can see Garcia outboxing him. PDL power would definitely test his chin though.
the thing about mikey is that he was born into a a rich family, when he was growing up his brother was already a champion and his father was training champions, during his teen years his older brothers already became well respected coaches.
Sore for Lara's fight? He didn't lose, and that was a good learning experience for him, now we are going to c if he is a contender or a pretender, some ppl here were koing Molina even before he entered the ring, not me, I knew if Lara was not prepare Molina could out hustle him, at the end that is what happened, Lara didn't took a beating or got out boxed as a matter of fact his face was clean contrary of that of Molina, he Lara connected the most telling blows of the fight, he fell in love with the KO'S, like I said he got out hustle, it was not a robbery it was a fair draw lets c what happens next, but sore? No, it wasn't me who took the punches, I'm a fan not a fanatic.
Garcia is alright, but the guy he faced didn't seem like he had any conviction on his punches. When he did throw though, he caught Garcia flush on several occasions with straight right hands. Gamboa not only has the skills to outbox Garcia, if Garcia tries to get brave, Gamboa will put him to sleep. Too much speed, power, and skill. I don't think he could mess with JML either. You could put him in with Solis, but he didn't show me that he could beat Solis. I see Solis winning a close decision unless Solis is done.
So in your opinion Garcia as it is will win an UD against Gamboa but PDL will test Garcia's chin, not Gamboa who is faster, a better boxer and hits as hard or more, good assessment
Well garcias is Gamboas mandatory but his brother say he is not ready for gamboa yet, Saul knows better.
I think Mikey should at least fight 2 or 3 more times before facing either Gamboa or Lopez. Put him in with dudes like Concepcion, Burgos, and De Leon...should he get past them with no problem, then bring on Yuri or Juanma.
That is what they want to do with him, but by Saul account he is ready and a favor to win against those guys, what a biased knowledgeable boxing fan.
