    He is among the best but not the best. By the way, his fighting style is all American.

    Hows the government cheese today blizzblizz? Nutritious? You can thank my forefathers later, and then you can return to your rat hole.

    Mikey is the best 25 and under. Live with it.

    Mikey Garcia is by far the most impressive fighter I've seen in a while. He is technically very good and fights a very smart fight.

    When he was knocked down, he Sat there very composed and got up at the right time to give himself the most recovery time. Sure, the fact that he went down is not ideal but he was moving up in weight and got caught being a little aggressive. In addition, he was not really hurt as explained by his composure. As someone said, it's a bit like Tito who seemed to go down from single shots but was able to come back as if nothing happened.

    What I really like is his boxing fundamentals. Uses his jabs very well to set up his shots and slow his opponent. Follows his jabs with combinations yet remains compact enough not to be open for counters. Has two handed power yet does not fall in love with that power like most bombers. Near the end of one of the rounds he landed a big right and Martinez was hurt but he backed away and seemed to restart his methodical breakdown. Now this might have been because of the ten second sound but he doesn't take big risks when a guy appears hurt.

    He is the full package and I hope they can guide him on the right career path. I think he can beat any fighter at thjs weight but he needs to be brought on slowly but steadily. Martinez put him on his ass and there are bigger punchers out there that he should prepare for weight wise.

    Yeah if a Boxer is shouting out the State of Michoacan, he must be very close to his Mexican roots.

    * Hes def a top tier fighter for anyone under 25.

    * People are excusing him getting dropped and just brushing it aside as 'oh he got hit on the button'. Theres plenty of fighters that would have gotten hit with that shot without a problem. To me, its not a good sign that he fell over from that shot. But, is it possible that it truly, truly was a fluke? yes.

    * That he is so young, and takes so little punishment, hopefully means hes able to continue improving, gaining more and more experience. If hes able to do that, he really could turn into something special.

    * I am not sold on the quality of fighter that people say he is. I think hes a very very good one though. I dont think hes p4p, but I think hes close, maybe 2014 if he continues his success. But I think he falls short of being the level of fighter people think he is. We will see though. All I hope is he gets the best opponents to prove if he is or isnt the real deal.


    Hes def one of the best in the sport though for his age group.

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Youre so predictable

    Broner being better than Garcia? Maybe.... maybe not.

    By far? laughable

    You and Forza are practically different sides to the same coin. Youre nothing but a two bit troll now. Sad.

    Would love to see Garcia tear Gary Russell's scared a$$ apart, but we all know that isn't going to happen.

    I don't think that Rios is as bad technically as people make him out to be. He is slow and he doesn't mind getting hit, but he has good in fighting and good jab when he decides to use it like in the Peterson fight!
