    On this vid the trainer explains why a Mexican hook is better than an American style hook, the Americans are left on the center line like Spence when they hook whereas the Mexicans aren`t, it also shows how Mwexicans punch in combo hooks to the body but Spence also does that great too. Do you think the hook will be the key punch to this fight/ Garcia throws brilliant hooks.

    Hold up we Dem Boyz .
    How can you not root for Garcia? The guy is gonna get TORE UP .
    I hope Robert brings a towel imo. There's more fights out there
    Move down in weight.
    Spence looks two weight classes above. It's just not fair we know this going into the fight.
    (Spence is almost shades of Yarde so you never know)

    Spence throws far better hooks to the body than Yarde does though and he beat Brook who is a million miles off of anyone Yarde has fought in his respective weight class.

    No! I have Spanish DNA from my black Panamanian Gran who had straight hair! I live in Britain and there aren`t many Mexicans living here so racism towards Mexicans is unheard of in Britain, styles of boxing develop differently incountries just like soccer developed differently in differing countries, Brazilians use a flair passing game, while English teams tradtionally used hish work rate a fast paced pressure tactics, it`s just how it developed, if an American grew up in Mexico and trained in Mexican gyms he would be taught to hook like a Mexican, besides Mexican is not a race tey can be a mix of Spanish, German and Native American, Native Americans were in Mexico before the Spanish invaded just like they were in merica before the Europeans arrived, American is not a race, cultures just develop by chance and circumstance, I mean why the hell was there a wild west for a while in merica when thee wass nothing like that during that century anywhere in the world? It`s all a matter of chance and historical cultural changes within that country, you guys are so racial minded in America, wow!

    I don’t know I mean I really respect Mikey for stepping up and taking on such a big challenge but Spence is a very big welterweight who should probably be fighting junior middle and he has really good skills so Mikey has a big uphill challenge in front of him. I am having a hard time seeing him beating Spence but you never know and that’s what making boxing such a great sport.

    More like Mikey wants to exploit Spence´s southpaw stance and catch him with a straight right hand on the chin while Spence is coming forward.. just a guess.
