Comments Thread For: Ryan Garcia Star Keeps Shining: Weekend Afterthoughts

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Boxing always needs stars. It might need stars more than it needs great fighters. Stars put butts in the seats, generate press, and drive the most important question in boxing: what's next? When fans are asking that question, when they care, especially the kind of fans who can only name a handful of boxers at any given time, boxing has someone to build on.

"He may one day hand losses to Devin Haney, Teofimo Lopez, or even Davis in a rematch."

Garcia can’t take the left hook to the body that’s why he kept turning away and hiding that side of his body from Duarte. If you fight Ryan, hit him with that left hook to his liver and down he goes, and will quit when the going gets tough.

in the context of the overall, I was making a case that I don’t think that’s his trajectory but can’t assume it’s impossible. Maybe there’s a surprise. Based on what we see, I think his value will come in making losses to better fighters into bigger events.

I don't like his defense vs Duarte. He's turning his back. Davis is right, the referee should have warned him for doing that. I do not know if he was afraid to be hit with body shot or what.

Yes. I suppose the use of "may" is the get-out clause when he doesn't!
Thanks.
