[bronx7]

Mikey back and already ready to unify take linares belt. Linares nice boxer but cuts easy Mikey boxes just as good but hits way harder will cut him up or ice him linares a front runner if you put crazy pressure on him break him mentally he goes on the bike if slow hand and foot demarco broke him by rejentless pressure Mikey faster hits real hard does everything better no way for linares to win

Garcia by KO fairly early. Linares is a very skilled boxer but he hasn't always shown the best chin and Garcia is a beast. Linares has also fought pretty soft opposition, beating old guys who were once good or nobodies. Crolla was actually one of his better opponents.

Linares then Easter jr is a nice touch for the year..

I view Mikey as a bonafide elite. So its hard for me to get overly excited about seeing him in with the likes of Linares or Easter. I wanna see him in with other elites like Crawford and Lomachenko. But every fight isn't gonna be a superfight. And guys like Linares and Easter are certainly good gap fillers in between those bigger fights.

Would be a good for the LW division but I think Mikey handles Linares pretty easily due to the damage Linares has taken over his career.

Yes, this is a major factor, although this should earn Linares a decent purse at the tailend of his career.

I think they are going with the star driven model. They will feature stars and then low budget fights.

The big one is Joshua/Wlad. If showtime outbids them for that and Joshua wins, then HBO will have wlad and Ortiz and all the other HWT's will be on SHO.

If, and its a big IF, SHO can get HWT poppin again, then they may start to see the pendulum swing.

Ummm what? Showtime is already showing Joshua vs Wlad

MGM Grand, LAS VEGAS - WBA lightweight champion Jorge Linares (41-3) was a very interested observer of Mikey Garcia's brutal third knockout of Dejan Zlaticanin this past Saturday. With the victory Garcia (36-0, 30KOs) became the WBC lightweight champion and now is a three-division champion after picking up world titles after capturing world titles at featherweight and super featherweight.
