    Hes much more skilled but once he goes to 140 he will get KO'd

    Gracia is a good fighter, but I always feel like something is missing. He's very methodical, and his output is too low.

    I feel like a slick fighter will throw him off his game and his punch output is too low to compensate for his methodical style. If you look at this resume, there isn't a lot of diversity. He's been fighting tough, but limited fighters for the last 3 years now. I haven't seen him fight a fast fighter ever.

    I'd love to see him fight Gamboa. Then we'll see him truly get tested.

    I say he is the next Floyd Mayweather : His competitions has been Solid and he has beaten some real good fighters.

    Chavez was not a high output fighter and was very selective in his punches Garcia is the same way. You don't need a high out put when you hit has hard as he does and has very solid skills.

    Chavez was fairly high output. He pressure the hell out of guys and he took on fighters who was faster than he was. Garcia hasn't done the same and his output is lower.

    Until I see Garcia fight a good fighter who is faster than him, I won't be completely convinced. His opponent selection need to diversify. We'll never know how good he is if he keeps on fighting one-dimensional fighters.

    I hope he's nothing like Gayweather because health would come first past 130. Just look at Ali, I don't want to be like that said Garcia.

    I don't see why Mikey should have to turn up his output when he has the ability to dictate the pace of the fight. Burgos averaged around 75 punches a round in his past four fights, but he was reluctant to let his hands go against Mikey

    Mikey is a very talented boxer. He can be dominant for a longtime if he stays at 130, but I don't think he'll be successful at 140. It'll be like Broner all over again

    130 is a bit of a wasteland at the moment...so Garcia can't just stay there if he wants to build his legacy. There's literally not one to fight at his current weight.

    135 on the other hand is a bit more interesting with guys like Gamboa, Crawford, Burns, Beltran and Abril

    Well now that Alex Ariza is mixing him his special shakes, I've learned from the experts on ESB that Mikey should tear through at least two more weight classes after this. Brandon Rios too.
