Comments Thread For: Easter: Mikey Garcia Made 'Lame Excuse' for Not Making Our Fight

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Robert Easter Jr. doesn't believe the reasons Mikey Garcia gave for not making their fight. Easter feels Garcia knows he is a high-risk alternative and simply doesn't want to face him in a lightweight championship unification fight. Adviser Al Haymon, who works with Garcia and Easter, discussed that bout with them before Garcia went in a different direction last month.

both haymon guys, both not fighting one another, typical crap, and Garcia's full of it, always dropping names but walks the other way while saying he ain't afraid

cant act like Floyd if you dont even have the viewership and big fights like Floyd

Sounds a lil suspect... why didn’t he sign for that fight. I know he wants a 4th title and such, but he hasn’t had to say much about Easter, lil bit I’ve heard. Hmmmm... I’m definitely not a Mikey hater, but it seems like he diced up AB, now he looks down on Easter?????

Gtfoh Easter, you'd jump at the opportunity for a fourth title at a higher weight class. You should consider yourself lucky you didn't have to face mikey

Yea, I was referring to the better of the Haymon crop once again night fighting one another. But you're right, just a crappy unknown for garcia

It's become a bit of a theme with Mikey Garcia but he's a bit of a protected species these days and he's never at fault. He does a lot of barking but an equal or greater amount of quacking. His "reasons" are covered up though.

I would have liked to see that fight next, props to Easter. Mikey should handle his business & get that 4th title, move down to 135 & unify the division in 2018. Linares sounds interested Easter sounds interested make that Shyt happen
I wouldn't say Mikey is ducking Easter, heard him saying in numerous interviews he wants unify 135.
The cash and the legacy of being a 4 division champ is enticing

Both fighters are basically unknown champions. That being the case, Mikey chose the fight where he makes the most financially, and possibly picks up a 4th title. That's smart business! I feel sorry for Easter, because he needed a fight with Garcia to build his brand. I think Easter, should he beat Fortuna, should move to 140, and test the waters. At 5'11" he's not gonna get a fight with Mikey, Linares, nor Lomachenko @ 135! He should target the winner of Barthelemy/Relikh 2, or Regis Prograis if he wins, or Omar Figueroa Jr. if he beats Broner!
