Great win for Mikey he is now rightfully a world champion once again. Martinez put up a good effort he is just not on the level of Garcia.

Mikey is a very solid fighter, robot like execution and composure. I have to be honest though, I never thought he would turn out to be as good as he is.

He is a linear fighter and overrated as ****.

Roman didnt do sh#t, fuc*ing shot fighter.

Didnt threw nothing even though he was the "aggressor".

OF FCKING COURSE Mickey will look GOOD against these lousy competition and shot fighters.

Those were my exacts feeling on Mikey for a while but after I judged him for the fighter he was, regardless of the opposition he was facing, I realized he is a very fundamentally solid fighter. Very composed, picks his shots, good movement, sharp jab and knows how to put his combinations together.

I do still think he is yet to be tested by a tough opponent BUT I believe he will rise to the occasion and we'll see him at the top of his game.

I do agree Rocky is just weak and Juanma has some serious damage caused by those Salido wars. Mikey still hasn't proved he is a great fighter but I do believe he is a good solid fighter solely based on my judgement of his skill set/talent.

Mikey looked sharp last night.

Who can challenge him? Gamboa?
