    So an undefeated world champion from a pedigree of champions who has been fighting since the age of two and has been in with the likes of Edwin valero, manny pacquaio, etc (sparring) and beat, rather easy, the same guy who beat Lomo, says he'd like to fight Lomo......so he must be ducking Lomo?

    The lack of logic on this board is atrocious at times.

    This would be a great fight, make it happen!!!

      Can Mikey make 130? Can Mikey make the money he's probably wanting for fighting Loma? Does Loma wanna fight a guy like Mikey at this point? More importantly would Arum reallllllly put Loma in with a guy like Mikey at this point? I tend to think there are more no's in the above questions than yes's so this fight ain't happening, but I'd love to see it as I'm sure most would too.

          Lomachenko has said that he will go for a title at 135, maybe even next. So the fight could potentially be made.

          Now will arum put him in with mikey after the separation, I don't know.

            I'll believe it when I see it. I have no doubt Lomachenko would take that fight but Mikey prefers easy fights. The guy disappeared for two years and a half when he got pressured into facing better opponents.

              Strike my first question & change it to can Mikey make 135 then & all the other questions still stand. Its a very interesting fight, but I think there are a lot of question marks with making this fight at this point including how much butthurt could be involved, from either side, with Mikey & Bob doing business again.

                Mikey now have the burden of showing he can make twice as much away from Arum's clutches. He was making a little less than $1 million in his last fights with Arum. Average fights that are far from being PPV material.

                He can avoid this Lomachenko fight easily by simply saying he doesn't want to deal with Arum doe. Last time he was asked to fight Gamboa, he started his quest of leaving Arum.
