Mikey just looks too small for this weight class. Looks like he just put on a little pudge…..Vargas looks much bigger and stronger.
Exactly what I thought. Looks soft. And gives up height. Not good. He should be at 140.
Totally agree. Jr Welter is Garcia’s limit physically. Vargas will win this fight I think
Mikey is the much better fighter but Vargas should win if he uses his physical advantages.
There is an abysmal difference between a guy that take care of his weight and body, and at one point he has no more choice, but to go up in weight and still maintaining his shape, and another about a guy that just is beefed up showing the effects of this carelessness with his fluffy body, like Mikey Garcia does.
All of you are wrong, Miley’s body has always looked like that. His body weight is better this time around. His body is not as thick compare when he weighed in at the Spence fight. It will take about 2 more fights before he settles in at 147.
You may have a point. Roberto Duran vicariously beat Thomas Hearns through the triumph of Mr. Barkley. Size didn’t matter. The science did. The same problem happened with Spence v. Garcia. Mikey was missing boxing science acumen.
Make or break for Mikey. While I appreciate his ambition I must question his judgement. It is important for a fighter to acknowledge at which weight class he is no longer effective. Vargas may have to be the one to let Mikey know that Welter is no good for Mikey but hey, that’s why they fight so let’s see.
Spence is or was just a much better fighter than Garcia.
Mikey is a stronger puncher and has the ability to work the body to the point that Vargas may drop his hands thus leaving his head open for bigger shots.
Garcia should do good this fight …this is the fight he should have took before earl ….but don’t count Vargas out a lot of underdog been putting on …
