Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia Ready For Flanagan - or Move To 140 With Indongo

Mikey also said he wants to fight Pac, so why are you blaming Pac fans for wanting that fight when Mikey claims he wants it too?

I'm blaming Pac fans because they're too ****** to realize that Mikey can't fight him next. Are they even Pac fans if they don't know that Manny is scheduled to fight someone in July? They come on here saying Mikey is a coward for not fighting Manny in his next fight. Fans act as every fight is easy to make. Is Arum willing to make those fights? He wont even make an in house fight between Manny and Crawford, how is he going to make a fight with a fighter on the rise that isn't signed with him?

Mikey needs to stay at 135 there's much better fights there

I don't think anyone is saying Mikey is Pac's next fight, obviously he has a fight in July. But if Mikey himself thinks he is ready to fight him by end of year then that is on him. Who are we to tell him he isn't ready? Mikey walks around at 160+, you think he's going to have that much of a size disadvantage as his own opponents do?

Crawford may just get his day too. First he has Diaz who is no sure thing. Then, we have to see what his intentions are at 140/147. I'm guessing he will want Indongo next.

garcia's going to 140 ducking lomachenko a fight he knows he can't win

You speak as if Loma is some big, undefeated monster lurking out there. Loma was bullied by Salido !! If you give him space he'll out box most fighters, but Salida took the fight to him, crowded him, and made the fight ugly.....basically taking the youngster (Loma) to school.

[CoachMac34]

And Salido ducked the rematch for good reason. I wouldn't give Salido one single round in a rematch and he knows he would get obliterated too.

It's one thing to cheat the weight and rough up a rookie boxer but it's another thing to try that when that rookie is now the boogieman of the division.

Wasn't Salido supposed to get obliterated and not win a round in the first fight ?! Roughed up a rookie boxer - PLEASE... the rookie wanted to challenge a seasoned veteran and got schooled. You probably made the same argument after Canelo/Floyd....lol.

This comical... Mikey never ducked Gamboa and Arum never pushed him to fight Gamboa. You believe whatever they throw out there to make you think Mikey ducked Gamboa but that's far from the truth. Arum never made any formal offer to Gamboa or Mikey. Both were willing to fight each other but Arum never put an offer out there for them to sign. This came at a time when Gamboa had already walked away from a scheduled fight against Rios. Do you really think Arum was going to reward Gamboa with a fight against Mikey?

He was Gamboa's mandatory after Gamboa beat Solis.

HBO told everyone on air during the fight ' Garcia is now mandatory to Gamboa's title. However, Mikey, and his team, acknowledged to us earlier 'not Gamboa. Not yet.'

He ducked Gamboa before the Top Rank fallout happened.

Salido intentionally missed weight, landed over 80 low blows (yes, that's a correct number) and still only sc****d a split decision against a novice professional.

I hope they fight, then... If Mikey gets with Indongo in the same ring, I'll call you for a bet...

Sounds good to me.

everyone talking as if lomachenko has already moved up...arum and his team probably telling him to hold his short little ass up.

and salido was expected to lose, get knocked out, he was never anything special to begin with and had been dominated easily in the past before. one of them being the guy on your avatar. salido has always been a cheat, but a gatekeeper level cheat. lomachenko simply failed the test. stop making excuses against a guy loma should have easily beaten
