THE RETURN OF JUAN GARCIA
It seems that tonight can not get here fast enough for Phoenix own Juan Garcia, In speaking to Juan at his open workout on Wednesday afternoon it was very apparent that he can not wait for Saturday night to get here already. Juan looked very sharp, determined, and best of all he had the killer look, the eye of the tiger.[sorry Sly]
When I asked Juan what is he expecting to see from his opponent Jose Hernandez come fight night, Juan’s answer to me was that in training camp he had 5 different sparring partners with all very different looks so he was prepared for whatever may come from Hernandez.
In Juans last outing, Juan was dropped by a body shot right at the pit of his stomach by Cornelius Lock, Juan told me that he took the loss hard, he felt that he let all his fans down and because of that it hurt him dearly. Juan struggled with the scale leading up to the fight with Lock, 9 times out of ten when ever a fighter is fighting the scale chances are that he will not be at 100% once he is in that ring.
At yesterdays weigh-in, Juan made the weight easy with a pound to spare, Juan looked strong. Juan however is looking to look even stronger when the bell rings come fight night. Do not miss this great event, come out to the Wild Horse Pass Casino off of the I-10 in Chandler, doors will open at 6 pm and the return of Juan Garcia will start roughly around 8 pm. See you at the fights.
