He is an exciting fighter but his defense is a bit lacking. Miranda got in a couple of good shots that backed Garcia off. I am not sure about Miranda’s power, but I suppose Garcia has a decent chin. I agree with Teddy Atlas, Garcia needs to step up to better competition. He had something like 120 amateur fights. I think he should step it up.
There is one to keep an eye on!, nice fight.
