Hominick is taking Garcia to school. It's getting humiliating at this point.

He is just picking apart Garcia. Garcia needs to learn to be more technical instead of just loading up on every shot, or he needs to start taking fighters to the ground and work his BJJ.

Grcia is circiling right into Hominicks right hand....don't know why Mark isn't taking advantage of it.
lol, why doesn't Leonard simply hold his gloves in front of his face? He does realizes he's supposed to block with those two limbs and not his face right?
EDIT: 30-27. Last two rounds were demoralizing. Hominick is a good striker and looked great tonight, but Garcia made him look like a prime Roy Jones.

Leonard is a entertaining fighter but nothing more than that- he takes punches to the face and smiles and still can't do anything about it while winging punches that can be seen a mile away.
EDIT: A split??? WTF???

Wow I can' believe that one of the judges actually gave the fight to Garcia. Garcia got tooled for 15 minutes.

LOOOOOOL Split decision!
Garcia is the king of favourable judges scorecards. Absolute garbage. Another near Garcia robbery.
Garcia should've lost about 6 fights in a row now.
I'm starting to think the judges are just trolling now.
