I saw the weigh-in and Mikey look pretty good, but a bit puffy and not as cut as Spence at that weight. Both came in under the 147 limit but Spence was cut like a body builder and will rehydrate to at least 160 by time the fight starts is my guess.

Not sure how much more weight Mikey can carry without looking bloated.

Bump since this is a fight that should stay at the top of the front page. You don’t see this type of fight happen in boxing much anymore...

We all mostly agree Spence will take this, but you have to give it up to an undefeated, multiple weight champion who, against his promoters & trainers & family’s wishes, said frick it and will jump up in weight to take on one of the top p4p guys in the world.

Why would an undefeated, 4 division world champion jump up multiple weight classes to fight a top p4p fighter instead of taking it easy & racking up easy pay days in his natural division?
quote:

“I’m taking this fight because I believe I can win, not because it’s a big fight or because I want to make a big noise for myself. Nah, no,” Garcia said. “After I win this fight, there’s no denying I’m No. 1 in this sport. No one else will have accomplished what I have. No one else will have the record I have. And no one else will be able to say they’re equivalent to me in accomplishments. That’s why I’m taking it.”


Bravo, Mikey Garcia That’s old school way of thinking right there.
