    Mikey should win this bout. This guy has been sparring with Pac, Ortiz, Sergio Martinez and Maidana since he was 16 years old. Broner is much improved and I have given him my respect as a skilled fighter, but Mikey has too much pedigree and skill to make the same mistatkes that some of the guys who beat Broner made. Like Shawn Porter who put him on the canvas. Or Marcos who although he dominated Broner he still ate many straight right hands. Mikey Garcia 115-113 115 - 111 115-113 UD....

    Mikey fights NOTHING like Maidana. Stylistically this fight is super intriguing. I also think Broner brings his A game to this fight and is super motivated. This is pretty much his last straw. That being said I do favor Mikey still.

    Although seeing broner get beat again will be nice.. I'm not to excited about this match up... broner is irrelevant at this point. But oh well

    I think a Loma type is a worse matchup for Garcia than Broner. Broner is too flat-footed and I think Garcia boxes his ears off to either a wide UD or possibly a late stoppage. Broner has already struggled with guys levels below Garcia, who is a P4P level talent IMO.

    Still I wouldn't mind seeing it, Broner usually makes for good fights.

    Broner's head is gone, just in there for the paychecks now.

    How can anyone think Broner has a chance in this fight? Broner is going to look like a heavy bag against Mikey.

    If it's at 140 Why do I think Broner won't be able to make the weight? I just have a feeling he will miss the weight by a fair old margin.


    Didn't they have to forget about the catchweight last time out and fight at 147 because Broner couldn't make 142.

    AB thinks he is FMJ. But I think he is very one dimensional.
    Mickey boxes his head off.

    Maybe Al Haymon is done with Broner and is going to set him up as a stepping stone for Garcia. Broner is irrelevant at this time, but still a "name" based on his character not his boxing, and a loss to Mikey will be the end of his career. And it will boost Garcia popularity.
