Comments Thread For: Bob Arum Reacts To Mikey Garcia's Claim on Lomachenko Fight

[deanrw]

I see you support corrupt bob....

LOL...I don't support anyone. I just know Garcia. He leaves top rank, then talks about fighting Loma, Manny, Crawford etc. Then he targets weak opposition. It is not hard to see.

Floyd himself said he would not allow Gervonta to fight Loma. Loma responded to him. Garcia was just tossing out bull**** LOL

Loma sent a tweet directly to a promoter, stating "Stop hiding your fighter from me!" I see no difference in Garcia stating "Bob Arum won't allow Lomachenko to fight me." Same tactics!

This fight won't happen; at least not now. Mikey left top rank because of money issue. Not getting what he feel he deserves. Rigo got $400k for the loma fight. I can tell you now Mikey won't entertain the fight without being guaranteed AT LEAST $1.5 mil. This will happen when it builds up to a PPV fight.

He is getting 3.5 million to fight Lipinets.

Floyd said that like 2 years ago lol. Loma was trending on twitter all because he mentioned Floyd name. He got the most RTs and comments off of Floyd. He knew what he was doing. All I’m going to say is twitter trolling always comes back to bite you in the aśs

He was responding to Floyd himself because Floyd was saying in an interview that he was Robotic and that Tank would knock him out. So Loma called him out on his B.S.

“I really resent using the names of other fighters that way, saying “he won’t fight me, the promoter wont allow it.” Bull****! If he came in and with not an astronomical ask, of course we’d do it. Loma beats the pants off Mikey, he says Garcia is too slow. Now, Garcia could disagree. But there’s absolutely* no impediment to Lomachenko fighting Mikey Garcia. Vasyl has designated Mikey as one of guys he’s happy to fight. Garcia has to call us up, say he wants to fight Lomachenko, do we have a date, yeah we do, then the question is, how much do you want? You have negotiate, if the price is right, we do it, it’s not rocket science.” -bob arum

Can you guys see it or do you guys just ignore it? Like I have said a few times already, bob uses this tactic to get out of a fight.

He knows now that fighters are speaking up in this "new age" & not like fighters were before saying nothing through media & getting screwed over in the money....PBC is giving the fighters more change so bob is feeling the pressure that's why he had to follow PBC & go to espn, kinda like the nfl "copy cat league."

Loma makes easy work outta slow, head hunter garcia

[Robi13]

Arum can claim any amount of money that MIkey asks for is “astronomical”... he can counter and offer peanuts so MIkey can say no, then claim MIkey ducked.. bob Arum sucks

He said it right after the Loma/Rigo fight. He said Rigo and Loma looked boring/Slow/Robotic and Loma should move up. So loma called him out on it,

Of course that is the way all fights get made. You need to negotiate financial terms.
