I feel like Mikey is sort of lost and confused right now. He's all over the place. Wants Spence at 147, no Loma until four years from now, might sign with Dana White, but wouldn't sign with GBP for Cotto and Linares fights. Now it's stay at 135-140, but fight who over the next 3 or 4 years? Easter? Flanagan, Beltran? He's going to run out of no-hopers quick.

He's very inconsistent with his words. Seems willing to sign with a promoter who's openly said he won't work with Showtime, won't work with GBP (HBO) or Top Rank (ESPN) despite saying he will not sign with a promoter. Turned down the #1 guy at 135, won't fight the #1 guy south of 147, arguably the whole sport for another 4 years and now despite a week ago saying he wants Thurman and Spence next year he's saying he's sticking to 140 which is a bit of a wasteland or Linares (who he's turned down already) or Easter (who sucks).

I gave him a pass for demanding Gamboa and claiming he was being ducked only to himself be offered great money for said fight only to turn it down.
