The Lightweight Division's Skirt Has Been Lifted — Davis, Haney, Lopez, And Garcia Done Got EXPOSED.

Well... that might have something to do with Artur Beterbiev boxing for 21 years, almost as long as Ryan Garcia has been alive. Also, Browne is a bit of a glass jaw, it shouldn't have taken Beterbiev that long to get him out of there, or lose any rounds to him.

But yeah, clearly Garcia is far from perfect. But I've seen far more seasoned fighters look far worse against slick annoying spoilers who are there to survive. Personally I though he did an adequate job cutting the ring off. He did land 165 punches on him after all. He clearly needs to fix his issues, certainly Goosen is smart enough to notice the chin up and lack of jab, and will hammer that into his head. Although most people when they have to aggressively walk down an opponent tend to forget the jab to a degree.

 

Look, I get it, he's an annoying kid, with way too much hype behind him. But I highly doubt anyone else would be getting criticized for their gas tanks after throwing 565 vicious power shots putting everything they have into them for 12 rounds, running after a constantly moving pain in the ass target. Sure, he paced himself a little, didn't blow his load. But for a guy who rarely comes close to going the distance. He certainly wasn't hanging on for dear life, trying desperately just to survive. Which means his gas tank is decent.

 

Really? Tell me exactly who does look good against spoilers who come just to survive? Does Ward suck because he looked like **** against Brand? Does Kovalev suck because he looked like **** against Chilemba? Does Manny Pacquiao suck because he had a carbon copy of Tagoe in Clottey that he pounded on to no avail for 12 rounds straight? Does Joe Smith Jr suck, because Geffrard lasted as long as Eleider Alvarez? Now keep in mind, these are far more seasoned fighters.

Yeah sure.... Naoya was getting rounds in, but he was also landing massive power punches flush throughout. Dipaen was taking them surprisingly well. The man clearly has a solid set of whiskers. To say otherwise, denigrates Inoue's power.

Aside from an inch or two in height, they're roughly the same.

Also, Ryan Garcia isn't quite Inoue now is he? I'm comparing their opponents. If Inoue wasn't as accurate as he is, that would've gone the distance. Obviously Ryan isn't a finished product quite yet.

 

What's he even need an excuse for? He just won in dominant 120-107 fashion over an ugly style that most people look bad against. Yet for some reason, people are acting like something Haney, Lomachenko, Kambosos, JoJo Diaz and Linares do on a fairly regular basis, is somehow unacceptable. Very weird.

 

When he was FIFTEEN. You're just desperately reaching now. I guess Badou Jack and Manny Pacquiao have glass jaws too right? How about Vitali, he got KTFO kickboxing.

Not a fanboy... merely not an illogical elitist hater looking for a reason to assail a fighter due to his looks and popularity with casuals.
