Why does Mikey get so much respect yet he hasn't fought anyone great?

yes salido is better than everyone. Thanks everyone of that list, yes. Linares better than Orlando? Come on. Walters? ****ing Walters only bullied of a small guy like Donaire. Gary is very good boxer but he has not a career like Salido and doubt of he Will do it

Salido was better than Linares, Walters and has better career than Russell JR. Rigo was too small. yes salido is better than everyone.

tons of fighters have long layoffs nowadays. thurman has a long layoff every fight. you only use that excuse when they lose. if he had just fought you would say he didnt have time to prepare. russel jr beat the #1 guy after losing to lomachenko. thats not a real claim? loma is fighting real deal guys: rigo, walters, russel jr, linares. those are some tricky style matchups. garcia is fighting slow guys that stand in front of him. Salido was better than Linares, Walters and has better career than Russell JR. Rigo was too small.

Seriously, we criticize guys like Crawford for not having names but we give guys like Mikey a pass. You have guys putting Mikey above fighters like Keith, Spence, GGG...etc but those guys have much better resumes. The best name on his resume is Broner and that doesn't say much. I'm starting to think that Mikey is a little overrated. He calls out top guys but never fight them. What gives? I been wondering the same thing.

* 2 weight class above * walters long layoff * russel = TBA killer hasnt doen **** himself, his only real claim is figthing lomachenko lmfao. What I said stands. tons of fighters have long layoffs nowadays. thurman has a long layoff every fight. you only use that excuse when they lose. if he had just fought you would say he didnt have time to prepare. russel jr beat the #1 guy after losing to lomachenko. thats not a real claim? loma is fighting real deal guys: rigo, walters, russel jr, linares. those are some tricky style matchups. garcia is fighting slow guys that stand in front of him.

lol loma doesnt have a superior resume than him, lol everyone loma beat mikey beat years earlier, and every other win has a * attached to it, coming off lost, long lay offs, 2 weight class differences etc etc the only real fight lomachenko has had has been vs TBA and thats says alot. but...................... you already knew that, you just want to hate on mikey so like I tell all haters after I set them straight, carry on with your hate. Rigo, Walters, and Russel are better than anyone on Mikey's resume.

No one says he has a great resume. People who think he is great think so because he passes their own personal "eye test"

Be funny if Lipinets lights him up but damn that dude looks ****ed up like he was made out of spare parts.

Garcia avoided Crawford at 140 but now he will have to deal with Prograis. Doubt Garcia can still make 135 without draining himself. Garcia ducking wilder confirmed

Mikey has a very high ring IQ, great timing, power and hand picks his opponents,it's obvious, it's undeniable. And yes, I do expect Mikey to avoid Prograis, he's far, far too dangerous. Nah. These are the types Mickey wants to fight. Beating a shaky Indongo doesn't mean anything. Mickey would prefer a small Prograis over Easter. Mark my word.

Forget Prograis Mikey has a very high ring IQ, great timing, power and hand picks his opponents,it's obvious, it's undeniable. And yes, I do expect Mikey to avoid Prograis, he's far, far too dangerous.

I think if you conpare his resume to the current crop of P4P fighters you'd have to rank him pretty high on the list. Not that any of the young fighters have what I'd call an impressive resume, but among these he's one of the best and it looks like he has what it takes to do something really great, so I'd just give him more time and watch his career play out. Very fundamentally sound fighter, a throwback.

You guys who don't understand the science and can't see the technique just have to trust those who do. Mikey is legit. probably one of the most arrogant posts ive ever read on this site

I was on the Mikey train until the Broner fight was announced. That just seemed odd to me as Broner looked awful against Granados and should have lost. Then the cherry on top was Lipinets, who looked awful against that Japanese Journeyman. I then saw it as a guy who is purposely picking easy fights for money grabs. We will see how real he is if he does or does not attempt to unify at 140. Every last one of those guys at 140 would take the fight with Garcia and wouldn't overprice themselves. Prograis would take that fight in a heartbeat. By the end of this year Prograis will be the WBC champ.

That's what I've been bashing my head about. He went bananas when Bobfather tried to pit him with Gamboa. As if Gamboa is this lil G or some ko artist. His being groomed to fight Pac probably hastened his split with Arum. And now he wants all these unrecognized fighters nobody ever heard of. Can't even make him fight the most logical fight with Easter saying his height and reach bothered him.

Hey if GGG Dies, he dies...... GGG aint dying from a yellow juiced up messican fraud. salido has tons more heart then the fraud and coward mikey

You guys who don't understand the science and can't see the technique just have to trust those who do. Mikey is legit. yea like all you geniuses told us how great a scientist Rigo was

Haters are gonna hate. Fact is people rate fighters on their talents and future potential, everyone in the sport sees the talent and future in mikey. Its literally that simple. . you are the hater wanting to see white people die. salido after being down a bunch of times started to beat up mikey and he quit the fight. he is s h it and so are you

Haters are gonna hate. Fact is people rate fighters on their talents and future potential, everyone in the sport sees the talent and future in mikey. Its literally that simple. . Still doesn't have a better resume than guys like Canelo, Thurman, Loma, Rigo, GGG, Spence, and Danny. Loma has had only 11 fights and already he has a superior resume
