MIKEY GARCIA is a remarkable talent who has won multiple world titles by moving up and down the weight divisions.
He has been a champion at featherweight, junior lightweight, lightweight and junior welterweight level – which is an incredible feat.
Mike is the son of Mexican parents who crossed the border into California to find work in the strawberry fields.
His father Eduardo, an amateur boxer, kept him away from the street gangs by taking him to the gym with him when he was fourteen.
Garcia is a formidable boxer-puncher who often switches to southpaw. He is noted for his patience in the ring as he waits for the right moment to strike.
Four years ago, Mikey was unhappy with the money he was being paid and he refused to honour his contract with Bob Arum.
He took legal action against America’s top promoter and their bitter dispute lasted two years before they eventually came to an amicable agreement.
There were doubts after such a long exile if Garcia could get back to his former brilliance.
But when he returned he proved he was as good as ever.
Garcia will be going after his fifth world title when he challenges unbeaten Errol Spence for his IBF welterweight crown in the Texan’s backyard on March 16.
Garcia's amazing record
Fights: 39
Wins: 39
Wins by KO: 30
The majority of fight folk believe he is trying to cross a bridge too far by jumping two weight divisions to take on someone as formidable as Spence.
It is a match made in heaven and takes place at the 105,000 seater AT & T stadium – the home of the Dallas Cowboys.
At the moment there are seats at all prices – but I doubt if that will be the case for long.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.
Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”

SATC star Kim swears by gym sessions with Russian kettle bells (traditional cast-iron weights) and the South Beach Diet to give her the body she wants. To avoid overeating, Kim has a radical diet trick – squirting lemon juice on her leftovers – so she won’t carry on picking.
Kim says: “I am no super-thin Hollywood actress. I am built for men who like women to look like women.”
