  • The best for Garcia’s boxing career is to take the fight, because his credibility will take a massive blow if for any reason his side reject this fight. He has been avoiding worthy fights (Jojo Diaz and Javier Forruna) with an array of excuses, but he is a keyboard warrior calling others top 135 in social media, so, stop being a spoiled brat and act like a man, is what Isaac Cruz wants and the fans desrve

  • If a fight happens, Garcia better have his sh*t together or else Cruz will sh*t pressure and body punching all over him.

  • I’d love to see Cruz pull off the upset. Although I think he has to KO Garcia to get a draw.

    With that said, I expect Garcia to eventually win an alphabet bogus belt then eventually do like his corny promoter and be photographed in fishnets and stilettos. I absolutely see the writing on the wall already and it’s truly only a matter of time.

  • Garcia should win. Cruz is relentless, but he had difficulty with the smooth boxing Thomas Mattice.

  • Not interested in this one, Cruz isn’t a real treat for Garcia in my opinion..

    • Regis, please learn English grammar. Cruz will never be a real “treat” for Garcia, unless he dressed up in drag or something.

      Please sunshine keep your silly feminine comments to yourself or go take them to a feminine boys only playhouse.

  • YES!!!! Cruz is going to put QueenRy in a body bag and I CANT WAIT to see it happen!!

  • The betting odds should be on IF the right takes place or not.
