Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia Retirement - Brother Robert Feels He Made Right Decision

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Mikey Garcia, a former four-division champion, is stepping away from boxing at the age of 34. Garcia, who finishes his career with a record of 40-2 against 30 knockouts, made the news relatively inconspicuously on his Instagram page, in which he changed his profile to read "Retired World Champ 126, 130, 135, 140 lbs."

Good career but I feel like Mikey Garcia underachieved given his talents. Only A level fighter we saw him against was Spence in a needless jump to 147. Other than that there’s isn’t much. He was, what, the fifth guy to beat Broner? That’s his best win.

He had a great career! He was feared for a reason. I still think he sucker punched Zlatcanin though.

Watching Garcia look for the way out against Salado told me all I needed to know about his commitment at that point.

Salute to Mikey! He had a great career, and if it wasn't for Bob Arum, it would've been even better! However I'm glad he won his legal battle too! I could see Mikey in the U.S. Congress one day!
