Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia Wants Best Possible Fight Next, Linares in 2018

[LOCOMEX89]

I don't expect a quick victory for Linares vs Campbell. Campbell is not going to be a push over and he's going to test Linares chin for sure.

I think at 135 theirs no options really. If he stays at 140 there's no names either unless he's interested in Granados.

Maybe Mikey should look into catch weight fights with the likes of Danny Garcia or Amir Khan.

Crawford has always been tied to a network.. HBO, now ESPN. Mikey came back and talked about himself being free to work with anyone on any network on multiple occasions on different podcasts and interviews. Then all of a sudden he says " come to showtime" as if he's tied down to them now... Just sayin....

Bob Arum and Mikey left on BAD terms. And Top Rank fights on ESPN. Just sayin.

The only way we get Mikey vs Crawford is if Crawford is the A side, Bob wont have it any other way.

I think Mikey is too desperate to jump around weights. Not saying he wouldn't be successful, but he already has the Mexican fan base behind him, so I think he should focus on dominating his current weight, then move up and dominate the next. He needs to grow in to the heavier weights and build muscle properly as he moves up so he can carry his power, stamina and punch resistance. His power looked pedestrian against Broner, and if he jumps 2 weights to fight Cotto, I think he goes down easily.

Why 2018. Why not in November or December.........?

Mikey is trying to make up for two lost years of his physical prime. Mikey is an elite fighter, and he's doing what elite fighters have always done. If there's not a big fight available in your division, move up. And in a time where too often, elite fighters hang around in bad divisions, fighting C class competition under the disguise of "title unification." Mikey is trying to make the biggest fights possible every time out. He should be applauded.

Mikey Garcia vs Crawford would be my number one. Then let's see if Robert Easter can show Adrien Broner how it's done lol I'm sorry but I think that would be embarrassing if Robert Easter beats Mikey Garcia and his promoter couldn't lol

I think Lomachenko needs to move up in weight and fight Mikey. This is the 2nd fight in a row he's Bringing up a boxer to HIS weight and he comes in on fightnight at 140.

Lightweight is way better division then JR. WW. Plus you got Loma right below.

Crawford is moving up and there isn't sht then at 140.
