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

    I don't see a fight between Mikey and Crawford ever happening and honestly I don't have a problem with that. Mikey should settle in at 135 for the long haul and maybe go up to 140 towards the end of his career. On the other hand, Crawford will be at 147 sooner than later, because of how big he already is and the fact that there aren't really any fights for him at 140 but there's a lot of money to be made at 147.

    As far as Garcia, there are a lot of fights he can take at 135 and I think he should try to unify the titles. He can fight guys like Flanagan, Linares, Easter, Zlaticanin, Bey and Shafikov and then eventually make a final push to 140 to fight guys like Barthelemy or imo the down the road biggest potential fight for him, Verdejo. If Verdejo keeps winning and goes to 140 and Mikey wins a few belts at 135 and then goes to 140 to fight him, that fight could be HUGE

            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
            Anyway, to answer the thread-- Yes as long as he can make the weight, he shouldn't rush up to 140 just yet.

              Broner is too big for him and has too mch power. Also he can take a punch. Garcia isnt rough enough to disrupt Broner
              i'm not sold on garcia's chin, i think he is chinny but still good enough to beat broner. imo he is the better of the 2 and he isn't that small.

                Would beat him brainless.
                Lmao... Let those dudes beat some quality top level opponents before we consider them legit threats.. Those guys are still at least a year, probably 2, away from being legit contenders. Mikey will be at 140 by then
