    Why can't Al Haymon buy him out, like Chavez? I'm not a big fan of Al Haymon and his ways of business, but Haymon signing Garcia is a lot better than when Garcia is enduring now.

      Because Al Haymon is not willing to give the necessary money for this.

      Chavez Jr. was worth it because he's a huge name.

      Garcia is ruining his career. He should finish out his contract with Arum. He might not get as much money as he wants in his final TR fight, but that's what you have to do to leave.

      Frankly, it sounds like he just doesn't want tough fights, and doesn't mind biding time. He didn't want to face Gamboa, thats what this is all about.

        According to his lawyer, his contract can get extended by TR for however long they want it to, so essentially, he'll never finish his contract with TR.

        Ohhh and "doesn't want tough fights"

          LMAO! That's utter nonsense. Obviously.

          I've never heard of a lifetime contract. NO ONE in boxing signs that, and they aren't offered.

          And if it was, did Arum put a gun to Garcias head to sign a life time contract?

          Garcia pussied out in fighting Gamboa. He could've taken that fight and if he won, he would've been a star.

              all this cause stems from when top rank was okay with paying gamboa more then him for the fight and mikey didnt like that. Gamboa wasnt part of top rank, wasnt the champion and wasnt the bigger name atm so mikey was upset on why he was gonna get paid more then mikey.

                Mikey signed a contract. He should have honored it then broke free once it was over like cotto did.

                  So now he makes nothing for the past year and a half. Real smart business move.

                  Instead if trying to break free from arum, he needs to break free from whoever is advising him.

                    Who says he wants to sign with haymon? Maybe he's trying to go to main events
