Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia: I'd Rather Fight Errol Spence Than Lomachenko

[FrankieClutch]

Even guys that like Mikey know he’s full of it. He’s said a lot of guys names but isn’t actually fighting them. Any champ at 147 destroys him

147 is going to be the only place that he gets competition. The only dude under 140 with a legit shot is Lomachenko

Ha! That would be of no benefit to Errol. Mike is going between 135 and 140. Errol is making his case in the WW division. Definitely a move backwards that he wouldn't get credit for. Mikey, if you're serious, fight Loma.

He clearly isn't.

What an embarrassment this clown has become.. Talking talking talking, talking about facing Cotto, Linares, Lomachenko, Spence and ends up fighting the Zlaticanins and Lipinets of the world. He is only taking fights where he is the overwhelming favorite and the clear A side. How does this fool even have any supporters when he doesnt walk the walk and just talks the talk?

Not sure why everyone is criticizing Mikey. I for one think he was serious about wanting to fight Cotto. Only way to find out is for Spence to holla back at Mikey and than have Mikey come up with excuses. Spence would be a big favourite and would have big size advantage but Garcia hits hard enough to keep guys honest and is very good at managing distance without running. I think Garcia would handle Loma fairly easily.

Mikey explained a lot of things; he made the right decision to pass on that fight," stated world-class trainer Robert Garcia, who shared his thoughts on Mikey Garcia turning down an opportunity to face former world champion Miguel Cotto

Be careful what you wish for cause you might just get it

I guess Mikey has a death wish.

nope, he can always turn it down since he's a free agent. this is why he's name dropping everyone.
