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

[N/A]

PBC had an exclusivity deal with ESPN. ESPN couldn't show any other promoter's cards and could only show PBC so that is one of your lies. They could easily have put a PBC fighter in the Celebrity game.

It's very unfair for you to misread what I wrote and then claim I lied. I very clearly said that PBC didn't have an exclusive deal that guaranteed their fighters appearances on a variety of other ESPN shows. I didn't say they didn't have an exclusive deal. Those are two different things. A key part of the Top Rank deal is that ESPN must promote Top Rank's fighters on their other shows. The PBC deal was just a straight time buy. The Top Rank deal is a partnership centered around a joint streaming service that hasn't been launched yet. Top Rank is subsidizing the costs of the fights right now and in exchange, ESPN must put their marketing muscle behind Top Rank's fighters, like having one of them in the celebrity game. Had nothing to do with Crawford being more famous than Garcia. The numbers clearly show that isn't true.

If you're going to do this, at least be honest about it. I proved that you made false accusations. Rather than apologize like a gentleman, you completely changed to subject to a different random topic.

Very cowardly. We both know it.

He was given the offer of a one-and-done by GBP but passed for a better offer with a higher guarantee (a fight with Easter that never materialised in the end).

Mikey had multiple better offers, including Lipinets. Why were the offers better?

Two reasons, #1 - GB initially insisted on HBO even though HBO wasn't offering good money. #2 - GB insisted on 50/50, even though Mikey makes more money than Linares makes. Be demanding 50/50, Mikey's share of HBO's weak pie was always going to come up short compared to other offers.

not at all. I said that pbc has exclusivity with espn as far as marketing I don’t know where their deal was.

You didn’t answer the other part of that post that espn already has paid a partial payment 8 figure licenses for fights.


And u didn’t answer this post about who is next

Well if you didn't know, you shouldn't have called me a liar. Once you realized I wasn't lying, you should have apologized instead of randomly changing to subject to something that had nothing to do with what I was discussing.

Source please.

Because I have no thoughts on the matter and it had nothing to do with what was being discussed. Your accusation was proven false, so you completely changed the subject to random nonsense I couldn't care less about.

i changed subjects because I just read a story on Pedraza leaving. What’s your thoughts?

As for the source I can’t say it.

And lastly why are all the guys who are leaving the pbc going to top rank Eddie hearns or Warren? Not one besides Matthysse years ago has gone to gbp. Why is that?

Had nothing to do with what was being discussed. You changed subjects because you weren't man enough to apologize to me. It was a cowardly move and I'm not falling for it. If you wanted to have a good faith discussion, you wouldn't have made the false accusation to begin with.

I'm happy to talk the boxing biz with anybody, but you have to show some good faith that you want to have a respectful civilized discussion.

If you want to start with a clean slate and leave the trolling in the past, I am willing. Then you can ask my thoughts on Pedraza or anybody else you want my thoughts on. But drop the troll schtick. There's no need to be rude or aggressive. There's no reason we can't just be two gentlemen civilly discussing a sport.

"Spence or Thurman, those are the biggest names at welterweight."
And Lomachenko is the biggest name in the boxing, not the most profitable though, now in your weight!
Yeah, the path for the greatness.
