    Are you guys trying to get Mickey killed to fight Errol? Mickey cant hang with them boys at 147. I say 140 is Mickey's limit. Him & Crawford could mix it up there.

      Why aren't Loma and Terrence Crawford trying to fight?

      There are tons of fightings in the featherweight / lightweight area that could fight each other but not happening.
      Maybe because they are two divisions apart and Crawford is even big for 140. The only reason Loma wants to fight rigo is because rigo is a twitter warrior.

        Loma had just moved up to 130 & Bud said loma too small, Bud will soon enter the 147 division. Plus loma aint calling out no tiny fighter, the tiny fighter is calling loma out but loma's team is scared or blackballing.......

          I think Mikey Garcia fighting any of the top fighters @ 147, IS A HORRIBLE IDEA! Just the other day, Robert said Mikey could go back down to 135 because he walks around @ 146/147. That's not a good look for Mikey! I know Floyd was walking around @ 152/154, but Floyd was a defensive wizard! Mikey's style is way different! Errol Spence Jr. would do serious damage to Mikey because he's younger, just as fast, bigger, and stronger! If Loma and Linares won't fight @ 135, fight Figueroa Jr. and Granados @ 140 (fan-friendly), then make the move to 147 in late 2018, early 2019! We all know Arum will probably not let Mikey near Loma and Crawford, and we know why!

            Weighing 145 and fight at 135 is not bad at all. Usually guys are dropping anywhere from 15-20 lbs. You got think those 147 guys are walking around at 157++.

            Mikey would be a FOOL to touch these 147 natural lb guys. It's not like these guys are the size of Guerrero and moved up a few divisions...They moved down. Or lose weight to make division. SPENCE is one of th e biggest Welterweights out there. Him and Thurman could EASILY make 154 if not 160 here soon.

              Crawford is huge for 140. When was the last time you seen him smaller then the other boxer??? Ive never seen it.

                I said earlier that Floyd always walked around close to 150, but his defense was so good, that he could beat 147 and 154 guys with ease! Mikey's style and the weight is what troubles me @ 147! Mikey moving to 147 is not like Loma moving to 135, or Rigo moving to 130! Those guys are going to be hard to hit no matter where the go! Mikey is a different animal, but I don't think he's ready for that! We'll see how he handles Broner @ 140!

                  You'd wonder why Mickey ever left TR. Now he wants TR fighters.
                  I thought he left for a greener pasture and there'll be plenty of Haymon fighters to line up with.

                    I agreed with you. Very few ppl fight at their walk around weight like Floyd. Rare indeed

                      I agree. You just left him, do you really think The Bobfather is going to let you now go ahead and knock off his next cash cow? Of course not, it was the same situation with May/Pac. Bob was like "Ok i'll have to make the fight at some point but i'm getting all the money I can out of him first then i'll make it when there's no other fights to make". The Bobfather wants in-house fights more than anything.
