Should Mikey stay at 135 and not rush a fight with Crawford?

[therealpugilist]

Its just this Golovkin war has been beaten to death.

it isnt a war

just a bunch of hypocrites who lambasted more proven fighters but are upset they have to deal people pointing out their double standards


GGG is a very good fighter, people just want to see him fight better opposition. Thats not asking for too much. They get upset about it, yet trash other fighters resume and opponents

Stay at 135 for now and try to UNIFY starting with Flanagan, then the winner of Linares vs Crolla then the winner of Robert Easter vs Commey and by the time he does that he could have Verdejo probably ready to challenge and that could be a HUGE FIGHT if Bob is willing to work with Mikey Garcia which I have my doubts but I guess we will have to wait and see

But yes I think he should stay at 135 for awhile but he has NOTHING to do with Crawford

Dominating a Division is how you achieve greatness not jump from weight to weight chasing paydays. Fight fans today are so CONFUSED and IGNORANT!

Arum wont let that showdown happen

[WesternChamp]

Absolutely. If Mikey decides to act brave and get in there with Crawford now, Mikey can be in serious trouble. Plus how tall is Mikey again?? I would assume he's close to Gamboa's height right? This will be all bad for lil Mikey.

You have Garcia way overrated. He isn't cleaning out any weight class and Crawford would slaughter him now or later.

[Sugar Adam Ali]

I think he should clean out 135, but honestly not a lot of big fights. He can land verdejo, Linares, Corolla, Flanagan but none of those has the sizzle of the 140 fights vs guys like crawford, broner, lucas, etc..


I wish this dude would have stayed with top rank because had he stayed active with them he would have probably landed fights at 130 vs loma, Walters, gamboa, at 135 verdejo, 140/47 manny, marquez, bradley, vargas, crawford.. I got no doubt that mikey would have been a much bigger star had he stayed with top rank.. Probably still undefeated, top 5 p4p and biggest Latino star behind canelo.. Really set top rank back when they lost mikey

garcia's just back and needs to settle in and fight his weight - he looked like he could lose a couple of pounds so 135 is looking good. stay away from bud though. that guy is just too talented. at 140 he plays with anyone that wants a shot. we need to wait and see if he grows into a proper 147. thing is there isn't much comp. at 140 which might force him higher a little earlier than he naturally would but the greats have been doing that for decades so if he wants to be a great....

'there arent many established fighters who dominate their division and establish themselves as greats in just 1 anymore'

well theres one who is trying to do that, one you and many others on this website heckle and berate for staying at middleweight

"we'll fight anybody from 154 to 168"

Remember that?

garcia can't clean out 135? c'mon man, that's an easy money bet.

Easter Jr
Richard Commey

Would beat him brainless.
