Many years ago I was a fight fanatic. I attended many fights in Las Vegas and my game room was decorated with Boxing memorabilia and posters from fights.
It’s been awhile since I’ve been to a live fight but will be attending this one right here in Houston on December 2 in the Toyota Center.
Oscar De La Hoya looks great!
Tickets are on sale at ToyotaCenter.com. This isn’t going to be an easy fight for Garcia. Duarte is a tough banger. He has a number of knockouts and if he could get on the inside, he has knocked out opponents with body shots.
If you remember, Garcia had his last opponent, Anton Davis, at bay with long jabs and hooks. He kept Davis at the end of his punches. He reminded me a little bit of Thomas Hearns when Hearns was young, but he let Davis get on the inside, banged his body and was knocked out in later rounds. This could happen with Oscar Duarte. He’s a hard puncher. He has a lot of knockouts, it’s gonna be a good fight.
I don’t have any predictions on this one but watch it.
