Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia to Face Sergey Lipinets February 10 in San Antonio

I'd pick him to beat either but clearly he doesn't like certain styles and attributes. Always gotta be the bigger man and have an opponent who will come to him.

Yup we can both THINK the same but the fighter NEEDS to prove it.I really gonna love to see how his fanboys try and spin this.Linares =duck Loma=duck and even Easter would have been tougher style then another slow footed square figher.And what bums me out the worst like we said he prob beats them all but Loma and even that would have been tough fight.And I'm not even giving him s hit for avoiding Crawford because he is bigger.But not all that much bigger then Mikey would have been with Loma(who makes 130 easy).

Pretty sure they will do big numbers with Mikey fighting in San Antonio. Mikey had plenty of fans in New York. We know why the Linares fight didn't happen, because Oscar wanted 50/50 when Linares barely drew 2k at the Forum. The Garcia's have a gym in San Antonio so he will do well there.

I think so. In that region with those demographics, I could see this fight pulling 20k bodies maybe more. They usually price the fights in Texas lower. I expect a live gate north of $1.5 million for this fight.

Both are much better than lipinets and would be a unification. Those are the fights people wanted.

I understand this but Linares is #2 @135 and Easter is #4 according to the TRBR rankings. Style wise this may favor Mikey more than either fight @ 135 but lipinets is a good fight.

Another Undefeated World Champion opponent in a higher weight class for Mikey Garcia.

Another great P4P fight for
Mikey "The Beast Slayer" Garcia!

Mikey Garcia vs. Vasyl Lomachencko in early 2018 @ 135 pounds let's go!

linares and easter lol, tweedle dee and tweedle dum. Mikey ices both of them.

Well we will never know FOR SURE.Like I said I would have picked him to win both but we can think all we like until its PROVEN its all just BS.And if you cant see that Mikey is avoiding any style except the one he likes best then your blinded by love or don't know boxing.Hell even Broner has no real footwork just stands there and does his poor mans (very poor)version of the Philly shell.

Why Bronerino is not fighting Lipinets as it was planned ?

[ruedboy]

Lipnets has only 13 pro fights and he hasn't fought anyone ranked in the top 50.
I guess Garcia's team is taking a page from the Mayweather book and "protecting the 0". BS match up.

Dream on you WIIL NEVER SEE the Loma fight he just made sure of that.

[Butch.McRae]

TRBR has mikey as the #1 Jww and Lipinets at #2. How can anyone possibly have a problem with this fight?

They don't even know. We're going to complain about him not fighting two guys he'd beat anyway? lol this is that Floyd, Canelo, GGG type of hate right here. The **** isn't logical

[Bronx2245]

Probably an easier task than Easter Jr.! At 5'11, he's a problem for anyone @ 135! Easter Jr. might as well move to 140 too!
