    I got Mikey Ud12...

    Now I believe it will be a competitive/close fight, unlike most believe.

    I can see Easter dropping Mikey (he been down a few times) & making it a close fight. He has the size/height/reach advantage. I will be honest I don't think Mikey has the best punch resistance

    Im expecting a good fight I will be there live....

    M.Garcia by TKO in the late rds. Easter will be competitive in the first couple rds until Mikey's body work starts to chop down the tree.

    Easter Jr is pretty tough don't think Mikey will stop him. Mikey should win by wide UD Easter Jr doesn't fight smart by using his length he will get a boxing lesson.

    Garcia via KO. Easter fights like a ****** like Whyte doesn’t understand you don’t always have to be in a shootout and be the tough guy. Although I do think it will be late in the fight

    I agree with Pimp C. I think Mikey will outbox Easter to either a Majority Decision or a Unanimous Decision.
    Easter is good but he still has not learned how to use his height and reach to his advantage.
    Instead of fighting like Hitman Hearns, he fights like Punisher Paul and we have seen Williams outboxed by Lara and knocked out by Maravilla Martinez.

    Its guna be a good competitive fight, guna start close but Mikey will just be getting the last word and the better of Easter. I dont see Easter getting stopped though. UD Garcia. Fairly comfortable, nothing closer than a 116-112 likely a little wider.

    I also think we will see a more focused/prepared Easter with a new trainer & a highly motivated Easter who is in against a Top 5 P4p boxer

    It won't be the sams Easter that fought bad the last few

    I think Easter will fail to use his height and reach like he always does. He will be leaning in and exchanging with Mikey until he feels the power. Then he will look like a six foot tall octopus tying Mikey up whenever Garcia's trying to get at him on the inside. While I agree that Easter's tough, he will not be able to sustain Mikey's pinpoint punches for all twelve rounds and gets taken out mid to late in the fight.

    Easter will be prepared and I’m expecting him to fight a smarter fight than normal. But he can’t help himself he likes to be in shootout so he doesn’t follow the game plan. Me personally to beat Mikey your gonna need speed and a decent ring IQ

    Robert Easter Jr. is stylistically a very risky fight, and I'm not entirely sure he can beat him, it wouldn't shock me in the least to see Mikey lose and by KO Saturday. Sure, people will think I'm nuts, how could Easter a guy who barely got past Shafikov, Commey and Fortuna, beat a P4P guy like Mikey? Easy, those three are kamikazes that are willing to take 3 to land 1, they're great inside fighters and are awesome at closing the distance and getting in range to do their work. Mikey on the other hand is conservative as all hell, you could even say he's risk adverse, so when you have two low output guys who are conservative risk adverse counter punchers sharing the ring, something like height and reach advantage could be quite problematic, that's something effective pressure fighters can negate, but due to Mikey's fighting style, that won't be on the table in this match. Easter gets lazy and sloppy, and tends to want to brawl, but I think he understands the importance of this match, and will be far more disciplined. Now does that mean Mikey won't find the proper range eventually and do a number on him, no, but he may have a few issues along the way, possibly some serious ones. So its 60/40 Garcia IMO, an upset is possible.

    Garcia will stop Easter. Wouldn't be surprised if it's early too.
