Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia Was Concerned Omar Figueroa Wouldn't Make 140

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Sergey Lipinets wasn't the only opponent Mike Garcia considered remaining at 140 pounds to fight next. The undefeated three-division champion also thought about boxing Omar Figueroa in a junior welterweight bout. The undefeated Figueroa is a fan-friendly, all-action fighter coming off an impressive third-round knockout of Robert Guerrero, but ultimately didn't offer Garcia the opportunity Lipinets does to become a world champion in a fourth weight class.

same situation with broner..yet you went ahead and fought the unpredictable broner..not really some excuse..just place the same weight penalty and make the fight

Mikey vs Figueroa would have an intriguing all action bout.
Its still not late to make it.
Maybe later in the year.

Sure he was!

Figueroa Jr. has been fighting too heavy as of late. Or rather his lower weight days are officially over. He's no less than a Welter nowadays.

the last 2 times we got a mikey garcia argument he's stated why ducked 3 different ppl

[.!WAR MIKEY!.]

Figueroa is a fat bum that cant cough up the big money mikey demands if you miss weight like broner could.

Figueroa would have refigured Mikey

I was really hoping that Figueroa would be Mikey's next fight @ 140! I'm glad Figueroa might get a fight with Broner @ 140! I think both Figueroa and Granados have been fighting at the wrong weight class! I like how 140 is shaping up! Garcia vs. Lipinets, Prograis vs. Postol, Imam vs. Ramirez, Barthelemy vs. Relikh 2! Add to that Figueroa vs. Broner! Broner is on the way out, and I hope Easter Jr. steps in! Let's Go!

In order of fights I wanted to see Mikey in

Loma #1 (Chance of happening 0% with Bob Arum)
Easter
Fig.
Linares.
And probably #20 Lipnets.
