    Vargas is sturdy as hell and Mikey had him in very bad shape. Maybe it killed Vargas to make 147 again, but still very impressive power from Mikey.

    Hopefully Mikey looks good at WW from here on in, makes Spence look better in hindsight.

    Varga might not be what he used to be.
    Time will tell.

    I can't work Garcia out.. why's he content to be a B level WW over being an A level LW? I'm not fussed about his career much these days tbh.. wouldn't read too much into Garcia hurting him either.. Omotoso & Dulorme dropped him

    Wonder if we will see Pac vs Mikey. I still think Pac is too much for Mikey and Vargas was tagging Mikey a LOT. Pac doesn't have killer power but certainly more than Vargas.

    Interested to see it though.

    But he looks soft & slow there.
    Ruiz Mexican style ... Why not be a cut ripped specimen at the lower more natural weight class. He needs MARQUEZ level roids to truly compete with the elite at welter.

    i think it’s easy to point out if you watch the DAZN day in the life of Mikey.
    He talks about the kind of money he was making with Bob Arum in 2011 like 300k a year 100k take home per fight with 3 fights a year. driving a Dodge Charger.

    to making huge money purses. Adrien Broner & $pence 7milly purse with Spence alone. Driving lambo diablos & custom racing Viper.

    & we all saw what happened to Spence’s lambo shortly after the Mikey fight.

    it’s why so many fighters love PBC BIG Money for EZier fights.

    He has sufficient power as a welter and maintains his great technical skills, but he still a very small welterweight. . Pac is small too but Pac still has explosiveness and those thick legs...

    Garcia can't beat Spence or Crawford, Crawford ko's him. Manny will probably fight Garcia, good match up

    It’s not really his raw power.
    It’s his sicc counter punching ability to time the shot perfectly.

    spence neutralized it extremely well but remained quite cautious throughout the fight because of it.

    They are almost on the same size. Paquiao has been fighting welterweight for over a decade now not his natural weight class... Let him fight Mickey his own size. Then go with crawford or spence
