Comments Thread For: Schaefer Tried To Talk Mikey Garcia Out of Fighting Zlaticanin

[r1onnie2]

I think Mikey might get dropped but I still think he pulls off the victory.

[redmish]

He deserves a lot of credit for taking this fight. There's no doubt that it's dangerous but he should come through and I hope he does.

doesn't matter what he says zlaticanin is still one of the best at 135. its a weak division right now so maybe that doesn't matter that much but garcia has a history of avoiding fights like gamboa so maybe schaeffer is trying to change his image.

Was it Mikey that didn't want Gamboa, or was it Bob Arum who didn't want to pay Gamboa?

Yes, the guy ducked Gamboa. There's no indirect way of saying it. He didn't get flak because of the anti-Arum venom associated with it.

“And I said, ‘Man, this is only your second fight [at lightweight]." Schaefer makes a good point here. Who knows if Mikey's body has adjusted to the new weight class yet.

Richard Shaefer is full of hyperbole, surely the people of bscene don't believe this enough to make an article on it...I'll just assume this was meant for click bait. Garica is going to look 2 weight classes bigger than little dude. I'll watch more Zlaticanin in the coming week, but nothing I've seen so far gives me pause to consider an upset in the making.

Mickey left top rank because He had to fight gamboa......a mexican vs a tropical mexican and the mexican blinked, retired and ran away...now he is back and his promoter is trying to hype him up but Garcias reputation is hurting, salido beat garcia up.and the fight was halted because it was just a matter of time before he lost.....

Fam, don't waste your time! Haters gonna hate! Arum and Oscar have been defeated by Haymon! Schaefer is bringing us his 2nd fantastic fight card! It's time to celebrate! It's Showtime!

YUP!!! How do they call themselves boxing fans when they care more about the promoter than the boxers??? Al Haymon has the BEST fighters and sure he messed up out the gate but just LOOK at how much better his fights were in Year 2. And now Year 3 PBC is coming out SWINGING like 1985 Mike Tyson!!!


PBC Year 1 was done wrong they KNOW it!!! ALL FLASH, CASH, and very lil Substance.

Year 2 HUGE fights!!!

Year 3 HOLY SHT!!!! DeGale/Jack, Leo/Frampton 2, And Danny Garcia vs Thurman and that's in the 1st qtr ALONE!!!!

Here is the breakdown by year for them.

This right here ladies and gentlemen, is the reaction RS wants. If you can't see his comments have ulterior motives, then you have been trolled by Schaefer. He's trying to throw himslf under the bus as a coward promoter, while making his fighter look like he's about to fight Goliath.

yep ^^

Garcia stops Zlat

too many physical disadvantages against a textbook fighter like Mikey..... and he will be open for the right hand
