    Broner takes a good beating, so knocking him out will be impressive. But come on, this is a novelty fight. This better be for kicks and giggles before getting back to 135 for Linares.

    Garcia does hit very hard for his weight. He's a big guy though. I'm not sure what he walks around at now but I remember reading an interview where he said he was walking around at 154 or something and I also remember watching a video where he said he walks around at 147-148. He had his top off in that one and he looked in great shape. Maybe he's just one of those guys who looks bigger/heavier than they are.

    Every body drinking his kool-aid the real question is if Mikey get hits by a middle (GGG) or Canelo.

    McNelo took a little too much time to KO Khan.

    lol, that has nothing to do with it. Anyone can KO Khan. The problem is how long it takes them figure out that they can walk right thru his 1-2 combo. It took Canelo a few rounds. He could have just walked Khan down from round 1.

    If he hits that hard he should have stayed at 135 and hit Loma that hard. I like Mikey, he's a great boxer puncher who's going to prove himself against Broker. But all this power crap is diatribe.

    This. I like Robert, but even he knows Mikey doesn't hit as hard as Maidana. Mikey got very lucky that the Salido fight went to a TD, since I think Salido would've stopped him late.

    This. Khan is faster than most of the guys Canelo fights so Canelo was just waiting for him to slow down before knocking him out.

    I met Mikey at the Donaire-Montiel fight. He's about 5' 8" and thickly built. Big kid for sure. Mikey will be a good-sized welterweight.

    For a guy who hits like a middleweight it took him longer than expected to dispatch of a 5'4" midget, especially given his skills. Surely his trainer and brother wouldn't exaggerate?:thinking:
