    Long story short, he is shopping around to see if anyone hits the number.

      Lmfao was hoping the rumors would start some buzz but nobody gives a fvkc about him. That's what the idiot gets for selling himself to Spencer and losing to Martin after begging pac for a fight. Idiot

        I don't believe anybody misses Mikey. And nobody wants to pay to watch him face b level talent.

          I used to like Mikey and initially respected his jump in weight to chase Spence. I felt like that was a real attempt at chasing greatness unlike these dudes that pretend to be chasing challenges but instead chase weak champions/belt holders. But his piss poor effort against Spence changed my entire perspective. He didn’t even try to win and looked like he cashed himself out.

            Every retired fighter misses the spotlight; the attention; The focus being all on them. Their ego gets lonely and they cant handle retirement so they either comeback or go the announcer route.

              Mikey could have had a truly great career had he stayed at 135/140. His own brother and trainer advised him not to fight Spence. There was no way Mikey would ever beat Spence. Ever. It’s not that he didn’t try. He was just too small.

              Can you imagine Tank or Haney or Shakur deciding they want to jump weight classes to fight Crawford or Spence? All the mapped out projections, expectations and perceived potential greatness would evaporate like a fart in the wind.

                This right here folks
                Mickey was way to small to beat Spence
                Then he mentioned that he’d seen something to beat Spence
                Honestly , I fell for it and really believed the hype
                After the first round , it was evident that the difference in every matter was enormous
                Good on him for staying retired

                  I never thought Mikey would beat Spence. It takes rare talent to beat good big guys.
