NEW MEXICO BOXING 2006 YEAR IN REVIEW
“Pico” Time
The biggest blow to boxing in New Mexico had less to do with the success of MMA and decline of boxing, and more to do with the death of welterweight Vicente “Picosito” Garcia.
On Oct. 12, Garcia was shot and killed in what police called a gangland slaying. For a week following his death, the boxing community pulled together to celebrate Garcia’s memory and mourn his loss.
Garcia was being lined up for a showdown with Ray Sanchez III on a Top Rank card. The winner would’ve fought Julio Cesar Chavez, Jr.
With a record of 13-5, 9 KOs, Garcia was not only New Mexico’s busiest fighter, but seen by a majority as its most exciting boxer, who would take on anyone.
His presence, both in and out of the ring, will be sorely missed.
