Common opponent and former welterweight champion Shawn Porter spoke to FoxSports and gave some interesting insights. Porter has a notable win over Garcia while dropping a split decision loss against Errol Spence Jr. back in September 2019.
“I think this is the first fight that he is an underdog getting into it. It’s important for him to start first. He starts fast. He is fast, gets off to a fast start. Doesn’t allow Errol Spence to get comfortable, you know, he will have some success. Be busy, stay on him all night. Don’t allow him to breath, don’t allow him to get comfortable, and then I think the number three and the most important is, land that no-look left hook.”

Porter revealed that the key would be constant pressure. If Garcia can keep constant pressure on Spence Jr., there’s a reason to believe that he could gain a significant edge on the unified welterweight champion. However, the interesting thing to note here will be how Spence returns after the horrific accident.
