      This would be a great fight. Action might lag with two counter punchers but as a non-PPV it would be a top matchup. Problem is Mikey is all talk. If he embraces Lomachenko showdown why did he sign with Al Haymon who never makes any good fights?

      Mikey had so many big opportunities, including Pacquiao, that he passed up. Shows he never wanted to fight the best, just wanted to make easy money on the Haymon side of the street. Was willing to sit out for years to get to that side, and now he's there. Expect more mismatches.

        Haymon respects the Hispanic market and the general potential for it in the USA, natural, and now Mikey might be his bigger star than Santa Cruz. But the Frampton bout is definitely a mismatch

          Foxx, we can agree to disagree. Perhaps there are certain fans out there like that. I don't believe they are the vast majority, or even a large minority. We as fans aren't stepping in the ring, or getting a cut of the check, therefore there is no need to be insecure. This is a sport, and the best should fight the best. If your favorite guy loses, then you hope they come back strong and get it back next time around.

          Regarding Lara, Loeffler has said point blank in multiple interviews, on video, that Lara's team has never reached out. You can imply he is lying I guess, but Lara's team hasn't disputed it, and there is simply no reason to lie about it from my view point. Take from that what you will.

          On another note, it sucks that people are pming you or following you around the forum. Just ignore them. Most people around these parts are a little off to begin with, from my experience. They seem to be getting to you because it comes across in the tone of your posts. I certainly mean no disrespect, just voicing my own opinion.

          Sugarkaine - I don't understand your question?

              Loma probably hurts mikey bad. Mikey is irrelevant. Loma is in his prime!

                  Lomachenko would body Mikey. Would be a great win for him too.

                    I'm a Loma and Kovalev fan, so I'm guessing you're going to put me in the group of people that have been saying that Ward is scared of Kovalev? Even though I've never said that? That doesn't seem right/fair. That's generalizing.
                    When I need to defend my favorite boxers I'll do it, but I also try to be fair.
                    I don't think I've ever said anything bad about Haymon, but I've said plenty of negative things about how HBO is handling their budget or how Top Rank and Egis Klimas are doing a horrible job with Lomachenko.

                    Crazy people are just part of the sport or the world in general. It is what it is. Crazy fans come from everywhere not just from "a certain group of fans" as you put it. Let's be honest there.
                    You shouldn't be paying attention to them to begin with. That's what they want.
                    Everybody definitely has a little bit of bias towards certain fighters, but there is a difference between being a little bias and being totally crazy.
                    I've seen you trolling on here before, so don't act so innocent. I don't think anybody is innocent of that tbh.
                    That's the best I could put it without going into a thorough explanation.

                    Real fans aren't going to trash this fight. Realistically I doubt this fight happens anytime soon, we have to be honest about that, but when it gets here we the fans will enjoy it. Let the trolls be trolls. I don't like trolls either. They're annoying, but at the end of the day it's a forum. Not going to let them drive me crazy.
