Sandor Martin was supposed to be a prop, just a guy on the other side of the ring for Mikey Garcia to bat around for a few rounds to get his tune-up win in following a 19-month layoff before moving on to a major fight.
I was interested in how Mikey would look in this match after his one sided beat down from Spence and the long layoff…. Either he’s lost his skills because of age or Martin is that good…. We’ll see! Congratulations to Martin on a great victory and two of the judges for fair scoring.
Garcia looked pretty soft and fought like it was a sparring session he only sorta cared about winning. He seemed disengaged and unconcerned about the outcome. Maybe all the long layoffs have caught up with him.
I thought the same thing. I wonder if he is mailing it in at this point. He fought 15 pounds heavier than he should have. I thought Mikey was a superstar 5 years ago.
Hopefully this is the end of Mikey’s Gravy Train. Congratulations to Sandor Martin. He exposed Mikey’s pudgy butt for what he really is. A Big Name that was always going to be an easy big payday for the likes of Spence, Tank, Haney, Teofimo, etc.
Thanks for the purse info Dan
