    Mikey looking good, wish the kid would use more than the jab, straight, or the jab straight, hook. would like to see him work four punch combinations and body shots. I think he easily beats Salido. Hes too good, too quick and too technically sound.
     
  2. he has all the tools to beat him but he's never been in a war. that s what salido does: he takes u to war.

    Looks like their working on some decent maneuvers and counters for Salido's aggression.

    Honestly though, aside from the fact I favor Salido, as someone backing Garcia I'd at the very least be worried. Don't see how it looks easy as the OP suggests. Mikey's last fight was very competitive, Barros was leaping inside with looped shots and having success getting past Mikey's reach. Mikey's a solid textbook boxer and proved he can keep his calm and stay accurate in heated exchanges, but he also showed he's prone to getting in those exchanges in the first place. If he cedes the same ground to Salido, the damage will be exponentially worse.

    Saw this vid when the TS first posted (BORKED now), and wanted to watch again after the fight. Good work on combos and counters, esp the counter lefts while backing up at 0:55. That strong left hook caught Warlando in the first and set the stage.

    Excellent game plan and well executed.
