Am I correct in saying that Garcia may be the best current prime Puerto Rican fighter (I know he was not born on the island, but he is of descent)? He's got to be up there. What's next in line for Mr. Garcia? Juan Manuel Marquez? Marcos Maidana? Timothy Bradley has exited the division permanently for welterweight, otherwise, Timothy Bradley?

General Observation: Wasn't yesterday a brilliant day for boxing? Two entertaining fights; two uncontroversial endings.
