Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
If Garcia wants to make a statement, he should fight Linares after he beats Croalla. Who wins?
Linares has good speed, but a weak chin. I see Garcia knocking him out.
Re: Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
Mikey Garcia is an absolute joy to watch. He is perfect with everything, balance, timing, precision and poise. A long time since I have seen anyone as good.
Garcia rips Jorge Linares to shreds and anyone else that gets in his way.
What a waste that he has been out of the ring for so long.
Re: Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
Linares is essentially Amir Khan at lightweight, but with better stamina. All the skill and speed in the world, with little to no punch resistance. He will have his moments against Mikey due to his speed advantages, but no way does Jorge last the distance.
Re: Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
There are some quality world class fights that can be made at the weight.
Re: Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
impressive result that wasn't it from Garcia
I expected him to win but I thought it would go longer and be a bit of a struggle
wasn't tho was it? he absolutely smashed him to bits

That was the frightening thing about it. Garcia has been inactive and fought an undefeated fighter and just looked flawless and did not break sweat.
Awesome performance.

That's sheer natural ability.
Imagine how good he'd be if he had been active.

Lets not worry about the past and waste, lets appreciate that he is in the ring and providing joy to us all. :)
Re: Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
definitely one of the elite
lets hope he stays active
Re: Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
Garcia has been clipped before and Linares has enough speed & pop to get there. I think it could be an exciting fight until Mikey catches Linares with something big and that'll be the end of it.
Re: Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
Garcia wins that fight all day.
Re: Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
Looks like this fight and the Cotto fight are dead as Mikey wouldn't sign with GBP.
Sounds like Easter is in the works tho. A very nice alternative.
Re: Mikey Garcia vs. Jorge Linares.
Easter to fight Garcia or Linares? Either is a good option

I heard Golden Boy & Linares were now looking at Flanagan.
