id say teo overall gave a much more polished performance

i didnt think garcia fought particularly smart or looked particularly well prepared tbh. a lotta rounds he did absolutely nothing and would get pushed back the whole time. he would continually turn to thee side so much that his back was almost to haney. but he was just so explosive that he was able to keep hurting haney and compensate for all those moments

Would tank have been able to do that to Garcia at 140

Was Garcia severely compromised at 137 or whatever they fought at or was it just a case of styles make fights ?

Not looking to blow smoke up your arse mate but came on to see what you wrote as I always do after a fight I didn’t watch

DIEGO MORILLA: GARCIA TKO 10

“As hard as it is to see a path for Garcia to win this, I believe he sees something in Haney that we don’t. Knowing him as he does from his amateur days, Garcia has all but begged for this fight, and there may be a reason for that. Haney always finds a way to win, but his dominance in the ring sometimes leads him to become overconfident, and all it could take for Garcia to win this is a single error from Haney. It may take time, but I am betting on that GPS-guided left hook to land sometime during the championship rounds to put Garcia in the superstardom realm that has eluded him so far.”
