I haven't seen him in there with anyone like that?
He's about to fight this Dejan Zlaticanin guy so after he beats him do you think he'll go up to 140 and fight the likes of a Terrance Crawford?
Have we seen enough to assume he's on that level, especially with the 2 year layoff?
Just a thought?

All the good black ass boxers get ducked
More like you can count the number of "slick black boxers" who are a presence in any division on one hand
But elderly fans who grew up in the domestic era haven't quite realized this so constantly ask why nobody is fighting "slick black boxers" (even though this is an obvious parody thread)
Why didn't Floyd fight more slick black boxers for example? Because other than himself that would've basically meant fighting Zab Judah every 6 months for 5 years
Besides Crawford and Spence. I don't see too many slick Black Boxers doing very well right now soo........ What 's yur point?
Spence is slick now? lmao!
A slick black fighter is different than a slick fighter who isn't. Just like when you all cheer Golovkin for fighting 'Mexican Style'
Is that not racist as well?
rofl.........
A slick black boxer has called out Mikey inside the ring.
Absolutely no reason why Gamboa vs Mikey can't be resurrected, especially now that Bob Arum is out of the way.

Fighting Terrence Crawford makes no sense, fighting or business wise.
Showtime has shown a clear and honest interest in featuring Mikey Garcia; on top of that, Mikey has already made it decently obvious that he'd also like to get a shot at the WBO belt before moving up.
Terrence Crawford (along with Gilberto Ramirez, Vasyl Lomachenko, and Felix Verdejo) is key to any chance that Top Rank has at reclaiming any clout at HBO (don't let the snake fool you; Arum's business is hinging on Top Rank being the house promoter for HBO, and it's been that way for a while).
After forcibly being put on ice for two years, do you honestly think that Mikey is looking forward to doing business on Top Rank's terms ever again?

If not, then don't pick and choose what should be deemed racist...
Now, back to the original topic...
Do you, Conbra, think Mikey Garcia is ready for a slick, black boxer...like Bud Crawford for example?
Mexico is a country not a race. Otherwise it would be "Hispanic style".
You don't have to be "BLACK" to be Slick but yes I think Mikey being a "Boxer Puncher" and having athleticism himself can deal with a slick style absolutely!
But before moving up it is A LOT of match ups I would like to see Mikey Garcia in at 135 and I don't Dejan Z will be easy nor is it a given that Garcia will beat him! But winner of that vs Jorge Linares that is a huge fight. Also have Robert Easter Jr at 135!
You're implying that fighting a black fighter would be somehow different than a fighter of a different race.
That's an incredibly racist assumption, you fúckin twát.

He better be ready for huge lucrative fights. Otherwise, he won't be able to recoup his 2 years worth of inactivity. He was already making an average of $900K per fight when he left Arum. The settlement probably cost him one fight worth. So I see no point for him fighting meaningless fights.
