Mikey Garcia turned down unification fight vs. Jorge Linares

[Santa_]

Great news. WAR Easter!

[Dean_Razorback]

if he is fighting easter next then no big deal, but if he isn't it would be very disappointing

[IMDAZED]

A 50-50 split with Linares?

GTFOH

[THEFRESHBRAWLER]

Here it is guys:

Garcia (37-0, 30 KOs), 29, of Ventura, California, said he has a better offer, but did not elaborate.

"We couldn't make it, but I agreed with Eric Gomez that we'd be in touch to make it after this fight," Garcia told ESPN Deportes. "I have more options, really, compared to what I had. The guaranteed purse is better, even though I really want the Linares fight, but you have to take into consideration the business. As Golden Boy is looking to do the best for their company, so I look out for me."

You missed the point. You want aj wilder to marinate. But not linares Mikey. Wonder why

And do you watch boxing? Thurman and Garcia fought in a unification. And wilder is trying to unify but you say he should fight whyte lmao

You can't have it both ways ***ing genius. Can't make this stuff up wow

AJ and Wilder doesn't need to marinate. Wilder just needs to know his value, which is very little in comparison to AJ. Being a Floyd fan you should appreciate that.

How long did it take for Thurman and Garcia to fight? Not until PBC bled money and lost half a billion dollars in three years of mismatches. By the way, the WW division isn't finished unifying. There are two more major belts out there genius.

Do you know what unify means? lol are you really blaming haymon for not having an undisputed champ? That rarely happens

Admit you're a ****** so we can move on. You just said haymon hasn't gotten wilder a unification but you don't even want him to fight aj next. You have no integrity that's clear

Wilder was t ready for Klitschko after 32 fights. Didn't want Fury either. Will price himself out of a fight with AJ. Enjoy Wilder/Breazeale casual. Lol.

I would turn down a 50-50 split too. That's a BS offer. Mikey walks thru Linares. Dude BARELY beat Campbell

Still a duck in my mind And I really like Easter but he is BEHIND linares.And he is a little to young and inexperienced NO REASON he could have takin this fight and fought Easter later.Mikey better fighter but Linares feet make him harder fight.This IS A DUCK.

".....Everyone at Golden Boy Promotions believes that the best way for fighters to shine is to match the best versus the best...."
