Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia Wants to Make Linares Fight After Facing Lipinets

[JohnP2]

All you guys saying Mikey is ducking Loma have things all ****ed up. It's the other way around. Mikey has BEEN calling out Loma. Loma hasn't said **** other than it would be a good test for him. Mikey rolled up on Loma LA and told him to his face AND in front of the cameras, "Let's do this." All Loma's bi*ch-a$$ said was "You were slow against Broner" with his dad in the background saying "Yes it is a good fight but don't you think it is a PPV fight?" Mikey was like whatever, I'm just ready to fight. Get in the ring with him whenever you are ready Loma and see how slow he is if you want to test his skills. But we understand, when people are shook like that they panic.

TRUST ME...it's Loma who is ducking Mikey. Should have fight be made right now, Mikey is FAVORED. It's so easy to come on here and say Mikey is ducking Loma because [insert reason without substance here]. Let's keep this **** real, people. Loma beat a top fighter two divisions lower than him. And?

Finally regarding Lipinets..why not? Linares will be forced to fight Mikey. He's not going to stay inactive waiting on Loma...so here is an opportunity to get paid well and make some history.

p.s. Loma is ducking Tank! (See how easy it is to just throw things out there with zero substance behind it?) SMH

Funny how people say Mikey is ducking Loma. After Loma beat the smaller Sosa, Loma was asked about fighting Mikey and said he would. However Loma has said many times that he would not go straight to 135 and face Mikey. He would have to face someone at that weight first. Mikey has said in many interviews if Loma is serious about fighting him then he should have moved up after the Sosa fight and fought at 135 to acclimate to the weight. Instead Loma ends up fighting Marriaga and Rigo who had to come up in weight. But Mikey is ducking Loma, when Loma is now trying to unify at 130 and is calling out Tank Davis. We all know Arum is going to have Loma fight at 130 next and then have him fight the winner of Beltran/Moses for the WBO title and then at the end of the year maybe Loma will really be asking for the MIkey fight. People try to discredit Mikey's title wins but look at who Loma has beat for his titles. A vacant title against Russel Jr., who had done nothing and has done nothing to date. Was fighting nothing but TBAs and his best win is against a shopworn Johnny Gonzalez. Then he beat the weakest champ at 130 in Rocky Martinez who Mikey had already KOd and who should have lost his previous fights to Salido. And Arum is lining him up to face the weakest 135 champ as well.

The WBC has enabled Mickey Mouse by letting him keep his title without making a defense against his mandatory 'El Nino de Oro' Jorge Linares ; the factors that bother me are as follows: I understand the World Boxing Council could of looked the other way if he ( Mickey Mouse Garcia) unified with Robert Easter as unification trumps mandatory defenses -- ironic because Linares is also a champion at lightweight owner of the WBA title.

...BUT to put priority in another weight division ( 140) AGAIN after already granting an extension to face Adrien Broner which was requested my team Garcia and putting another sanctioning bodies title over yours ( IBF ) is completely ****** by the Sulaiman cartel, as Mickey can just vacate and leave them looking very foolish and made them look to have whore their title to this clown who thinks hes a superstar.

Good fight. I'd rather see Mikey vs Easter Jr and Loma vs Linares really.

Great Fight

I'll be rooting For Linares when it does happen, because i think he is one of the most underrated and beautiful boxers out there... i'm afraid his chin will fail him tho. Still gonna be really tough for Mikey

He's earning $3.5m? I don't blame him then for fighting lips.

Spence is also earning 3.5m to fight Peterson.

What are Showtime and Haymon playing at here?
