    Garcia belongs at 140 but he will wait until Crawford moves up! Garcia is a good fighter but he's not on Crawford's level. I think Garcia/Broner would be a good match at 140. Garcia is stuck between rock & a hard place with Crawford one weight class above & Loma one weight class below moving up soon! If you're Mikey, which way do you go?

      Verdejo is too green. He's not ready for Mikey right now although I'm sure he'd give him lots of trouble in the early rounds just because of his hand speed and feet movement.

        I'll give him some extra names Mikey aint got no chance against.
        Verdejo, Barthelemy, Indongo, Davis, Cherry, Theophane, Lundy, Dulorme, Broner hell, add Anthony Peterson and Vivian Harris on there.
        I was hoping it was boxing related. I'm just saying, Commey had no problem getting close to Easter and Mikey has a much better jab.

          The only two guys I see at lightweight with better than Mikey speed, are jr lightweights. Loma and Tank.

            Apart from Crawford, Mikey Garcia will silent every one at 140 including Broner.

              I want to see Mikey in a career-defining fight against an A-level fighter now. I don't expect it to be next, but later in 2017 if he fights three times this year as he should.

              Crawford or Lomachenko are options if Top Rank accepts to do business with him. Linares in a unification fight may be the more realistic option and a excellent fight as well.

                Easter is easier to make if go him first Linares/ Crolla and Flanagan aren't gonna gonna be in a hurry to see Garcia after he just destroyed the number 1 guy in the division after Linares( who wasn't in a rush to get in with either so he gave up his strap)...

                  I agree he struggles against top elite technical fighters like Crawford or lamo

                    I would like to see Garcia vs Linares next. He's got the skills, length, and speed to give Garcia a good fight.

                    I would throw in Easter Jr it's just he's so big for the division it's just a matter of time before he moves up in weight.

                    Flanagan had a tough Petrov fight but if he wins has Verdejo mandatory next.
