[bronx7]

[bronx7]

Threw the bull

Its hate, pure and simply.

Come fight him then Lomachenko.

Is he "A-Class"?
This argument will be applying to you in past tense after your fanboys abandon you and change it to "always overrated" "or never believed in him" after Garcia sends you back to the Jason Sosa's and Miguel Marriaga's of the world.

There are a lot of haters in boxing ,the people who said Broner would beat Mikey are the same people who are saying they're unimpressed with his performance,, It's his FKN 3rd fight back from a 2 1/2year layoff and he is the WBC lightweight champ and then moved up in weight and be a high-quality fighter not Elite but high-quality. He's not chasing tomato cans he's been calling out top names including loma's punk-ass

Broner is not a high quality fighter. What fight he has had at 140/147 would make you think that. He barely won SD against shot Pauli M when he moved up and in his last fight he barely won an SD against journeyman Adrien Granados. Felix Diaz who Crawford just beat the brakes off beat Granados more convincingly(UD) than Broner.

Bro you're sounding just like the haters you're describing. You're basically justifying Garcia's so-called unimpressive performance by saying "It's his FKN 3rd fight back from a 2 1/2year layoff" while reminding us he's been calling out a fighter with only 9 fights. Your hate for Loma sounds just as ridiculous don't you think? Garcia is a seasoned pro who unanimously beat Broner, no need to make excuses for Mikey, he got the W and that's all that matters. Lomachenko won a belt on his 3rd fight, unanimously voted a P4P, and wins in big fashion for someone with just 9 fights. Give it time, that fight may materialize. But calling Loma to fight him on showtime knowing full well Loma is signed by HBO doesn't scream Mikey is anymore serious to fight Loma when Mikey isn't signed to either network. The full on hate from both sides is clear as day. Let's not pretend one wants it more than the other.

How does Broner have a granite chin when he was dropped twice by Maidana and visibly hurt by Porter in the first round of their fight. Mikey cant crack at 140. Even Mikey realizes this: http://www.boxingscene.com/mikey-gar...im-140--119017

Duran had a granite chin and was Iced by Hearns.

Broner is small for the welterweight and he recovered so well of the bombs laded by a guy like Maidana that in the fight night is 164 pounds.

Broner has a crazy strong and chin. Look his neck, dude is strong. But like bóxer he is mediocre

I favor Mikey as the bigger guy and that jab but TBH 1 criticism I have of Mikey coming off a big win against Adrien Broner is his head hunting. He did some decent body work against Broner but committed more to hitting Broner in the gloves than the body. I think he would've stopped Broner if he dedicated that body. To beat Loma u have to have a steady body attack.

At the end of the day whenever lomachenko is ready to step up Mikey will be there to fight him but instead he is fighting valdez's leftovers.. that is just a fact. Ain't no hate here just a lot of talking from lomenchecko who plans on fighting Salido,, Mikey's leftovers later this year

Loma-Mikey at 135, do it!

[aboutfkntime]

Yep you are right, the Broner fight was made really quickly and he made a cool mil for it.

it was easy to make because they both wanted that fight

which brings me to my next point.....

Lomachenko is fighting back to back nobodies so he should hush up. Can't even step in the ring with tiny Rigo or avenge his loss to journeyman Salido.

I agree with this

he would hold an advantage in both of those fights

I am a big Loma fan, been telling everyone for ages that he is one of the best fighters in the game..... but if he cannot make a fight with a guy below him, nor with a guy above him, nor even with a guy in the same division..... then they have started milking him

just like they did with Pacquiao, and just like K2 have been doing with Golovkin

folks need to realize how this game works when promoters/networks attempt to create the next big thing

some fighters are content to have their resume crafted by a matchmaker/promoter..... other fighters are content to craft it themselves

even Tim Bradley admitted as much

I don't blame them, but I don't give them any credit either

Loma cannot criticize Mikey for two reasons.....
1) Broner > Sosa/Marriaga, and is a MUCH bigger fight
2) he could simply fight Mikey
