Re: Errol Spence vs Mikey Garcia
No talk of the weigh in/presser? What do you all think, anything in it? Can’t post pictures on my damn tablet, but thought both guys looked about what you’d expect. Mikey a little soft and 145.5, he looked like he’d bulked up more in some training, but flexing in the right light will do that. Obviously he wasn’t going to win this fight by matching size and having a physique. People saying Spence looked drained, don’t buy it. He is ripped as hell and came in under at 146, but he looks totally fine in the face etc. Both guy seem confident, mutual respect the whole way through, I like it. The kind of fight where it’s a bit silly to even have things like face offs and stare downs and they both know it, hope that doesn’t translate to underwhelming buys, since it’s each guys first PPV headline(I think) and with neither guy being an assclown and all. Pumped for this, it’s one for the fans.
Re: Errol Spence vs Mikey Garcia
Spence should beat up the smaller Garcia, but Garcia is the better technical fighter. It all depends on how Garcia can take the punch and handle the pressure and added bulk. He is the one with all the questions to answer. I will support the underdog.

Guess I need to pay my cable bill because can't just watch this one on some blurry stream. Benavidez should by all accounts put a beating on Love.
Re: Errol Spence vs Mikey Garcia
I am working tonight but will set it to record to watch in the morning 'As Live'.
It's not quite the upset that Manny smashing Oscar was at this point in their careers if Mikey stops Spence or even beats him decisively but it will be an upset none the less and you have to give Garcia Kudos for stepping up. Still a very dangerous and difficult nights work for the bigger guy but Garcia has a chance to make a huge statement. Still think Spence stops him late on. Should be brilliant while it lasts.
Re: Errol Spence vs Mikey Garcia
Honest question...does anyone get a vibe that the field is a bit pre conditioned on Mikey or Spence needing the ko to be truly convincing? Just saw two sports talking heads go on about "If Spence does not score the ko it will be Garcia out boxing him all night long" ???. What kinda loaded bs is that. How bout we just see how those rounds actually unfold ;D.

No. The best man will win with or without a knockout.

I think people say such things because they don’t have they eye for quality. If you can’t see why, talk about what.
Re: Errol Spence vs Mikey Garcia
Supposedly Pacquiao is talking about fighting the winner of this. Maybe he would fight Garcia if he won, but no way he will fight Spence if he wins.

If both fighter don’t score first round KO they are bum. Dane mikkel Kessler are best.
Re: Errol Spence vs Mikey Garcia
Something about boxing in USA I love. Fernando Garcia is boxing Marlon Olea right now on the Spence/Garcia undercard. A Mexican vs a Colombian. The opportunity is awesome and the disregard for nationality.(and as I type that I think “it’s probably for the Mexican demographic”, so jaded)

I actually couldn’t sleep last night because I wasn’t sure what Ronnie loved.
Re: Errol Spence vs Mikey Garcia
I am knackered I can not stay awake but really wanted too watch this fight.
Re: Errol Spence vs Mikey Garcia
