    I didn’t realize you were complaining about a promotional dispute that was seven years ago.

    He’s inactive because of COVID, like everyone else right now.

    Mikey Garcia isn't a house hold name...he should fight in 2021

      I know in recent times he said he doesn’t want to fight without a crowd

      A few years ago he obviously had issues with Top Rank.

      Aside from that, it seems he’s just as a point where he isn’t bothered about being active and just looking for the right fights for him.

        He's living the good life, he just isn't very motivated by legacy.
        He's always in the gym, yet when you see him he look like he's 185 190 and he's a 140 pound fighter.

        He should just retire

          I misread the thread title and thought it said unattractive. Because he’s got a giant oversize head. He looks like if a Sri Lankan had a baby with a mongoose.

            Because like Terence, he only has interest in fighting Paquiao.

              Mikey is doing VERY VERY well for himself away from boxing so how can people be mad that he has set himself to the point in which he doesn't need to be active and doesn't need to fight 3-4 times a year taking punches to the face that does has a after effect. He can afford to sit out and wait around for BIG FIGHTS ONLY! Pacquiao kind of went quiet, not sure what his plan is I think he will just wait for McGregor next month to see if he wins his trilogy with Poirier and make a fight with him then probably retire and go prepare to run for President of the Philippines

                So he got 1 big money fight, now he think he's some finance guru?

                    He learned from Chris Tucker... for whatever reason, making himself scarce has kept his brand at a high valuation.

                      the question that should be asked is why nobody pushes him to have a meaningful fight vs Crawford, Porter, Ortiz jr etc, he's ranked 4th best WW by boxrec, but at the same time DAZN should force a 39 year old Golovkin to fight the "premium opponents"
