Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia: If No Layoff, I Definitely Would Be a Big Star

Mikey Garcia millions in boxing talent but with a 5 cent head

Mikey doesn't have any common sense and has over estimated his worth to boxing which is ZERO. Dumb kids getting bad advice is so typical in boxing the sport or even in the streets. Mikey lost millions of prime time from his meager career. ******ity? Si'?

And whose fault is it that you have been out of the ring so long?

Well Mikey if the title is true, then it's your fault you're not a big star...

Yeah, to be honest I think Crawford spot with Top Rank right now, would've been Mikey Garcia Spot! He had to do what he had to do, all of that is over with now, tonight is very important for him. Andre Ward, Demetrius Andrade both came back strong after Layoffs due to Promotional issues, I expect the same from Mikey tonight! Being able to study everybody for the last couple of years might be a blessing for him!

Im excited to see how he performs after the long layoff. I dont think he has ever been on the level that crawford is at and i dont think he will ever be though.

Garcia seemed more than happy to get out of the Salido fight (went to scorecards) as the tide was turning. Garcia has all the talent, but he lacks charisma and now he's going to be difficult to match. There is v little upside to beating him at this point.
Who is going to promote him? 50 cent? //krikya360.com/forums/im...mashfreakB.gif

The doc stopped the fight because of Mikey's broken nose from a Salido head smash.
Garcia had already dropped him 4 times, completely sonning Salido and miles ahead on the cards. But if you want to believe he quit and Salido was gonna comback and win the fight in the closing stages, either by ko-ing Garcia or knocking him down 5 or 6 times, then that's cool.

Agreed. He's a beast.

Yeah, Siri got knocked around for the first few rounds, but what fight does Siri NOT get put on his seat in the last 5 years? This is not throwing shade on Garcia's performance in winning the rounds and KDs, but a testament to his will. I think people other than myself saw what was going on in in the ring in rds 7-8. I don't know how bad his nose was broken, but people have fought through worse.

It is a stretch, but I just mean to point out that Mikey has never fought through adversity. And, when that day comes, will he be ready?
