Roy Jones Jr. on Ryan Garcia's problem with "upper-echelon fighters"
Boxing legend Roy Jones Jr. has given his thoughts on a major drawback of Ryan Garcia's biggest strength. During an interview with Fight Hype, Jones Jr. spoke about Garcia's powerhouse of a left hook.
The boxing legend acknowledged that the power shot has wasted many of Garcia's opponents but opined on how it is something that higher level fighters can see coming:
“I think he’s an awesome fighter but the problem in my opinion is that Ryan has a left hook that is a killer but everybody knows it. So, until he gets something else or knows how to disguise it, he’s going to have a hard time with the upper-echelon fighters. The regular fights he will kill, cause if he hits you with a left hook it’s over, but the guys who know not to get hit like 'Tank' did, it’s going to be a problem."
