To me, Garcia passes the eye test. He is from Puerto Rico, but no doubt he's close to a full blooded Spaniard. Fair skin, blue eyes, and straight hair.

Anyway a good fight tomorrow. Both Spence and Garcia are great fighters and sportsmen.

I believe the near fatal car wreck took a lot out of Spence. Also, there are rumors he parties hard and balloons up to 190 lbs between fights.

Garcia has always been near the top. His two losses were razor close to elite welterweights. He possesses great boxing skills, chin, and one-punch power.

I am looking for a mild upset. Garcia stopping Spence inside 10 rounds.

CFers the fight will be on crackstreams.com. Last weekend it worked great for the Tyson v Jones clown show.

The problem is that a hispanic in the US will almost always be viewed as a mestizo, look how many people refuse to entertain the possibility that Canelo is different racially or ethnically from his co-national boxers even if he is the palest fighter active with white facial features (though mostly Mexicans I would bet).

Garcia doesn't look like he has much amerind or african and I could see his phenotype on a white person but I don't know.
May watch it eitherway, rooting for Garcia.

Spence the better fighter. Looks like Garcia was concerned about getting caught. Competitive fight for a UD loss. Spence jab was key.
