Otherwise, I don't know where Garcia...

Goes from here.

He didn't look good against Romero.

He didn't even look in great shape and he did speak about that.

He said he had a poor training camp.

He insists this one has gone much better.

Now that he's been trained by his father, I'm not sure what the historical data is for that because I know a lot of guys do that.

But I'm not sure if that's entirely a positive thing to go down that route.

If he is at his best, he'll have too much for Barrios, who has done well even to hold on to his title up until this point.

But ultimately, his days as champion are numbered.

I felt like even if he had the rematch with Pacquiao... I think Pacquiao could have beaten him this time... If Pacquiao didn't run out of gas the last time... And it was weird that Pacquiao didn't get that decision... Because I felt like that would have been what the promoters wanted... That would have been a massive story... A massive magnifying glass on boxing and on the division... So it was surprising to me that many people felt that Pacquiao won... But didn't get the decision... But Barros lucked out...

And on this occasion, I just don't think he will.

I just don't think Garcia can be as bad as he was last time.

Otherwise, as I said, I don't know where Ryan Garcia goes from here.

So he is into must-win territory.

um I don't think it's out of the question that Garcia does get the stoppage but he's coming up here against a sturdy and durable opponent and I do feel the judges may be needed here in the end so I'm going to go for the bigger price here I'm going to go for Ryan Garcia to get this done via a decision shop around because you could maybe get this at three to one plus 300 I just found an 11 to four looking around but um

I do think Barrios is a difficult customer to get out of there, even though he has looked decidedly average in his recent fights.

And even though he is a weak world champion, which is why he's been targeted, I just feel that Garcia needs to win here.

And he might just have to settle for a win on the scorecards.

I don't think that he's going to go out there and get this incredible flash stoppage that he probably wants.
