García made history with his 4th belt.

[Clegg]

I dunno if it's really making history if you're the 5th of 6th guy in the last 10 years to do something. I guess technically any title win is 'making history' as it gets recorded and is an accomplishment that can be looked back on decades later so cong****.

ring belt >>>>>>>> wbo, ibf, wba, wbc, ibo

give me a break. a nobody can easily be gifted a wbo, ibf, wba, wbc and especially ibo. the #1 and #2 decide the ring/lineal belt.

The ring belt isn't the lineal title either.

Next 3 fights should be;

vs Lomo 135lbs.
vs Crawford at 140lbs.
vs Spence at 147lbs.


THEN he would have achieved something special.
I like Mikey but lets not go crazy until he actually fights someone besides "no power Broner" or a green kid with "13 bouts"!

He has solid form with very good techniques he also shows his methodology every time out. He is a quality young man from what I see and read.

Time to step up against better comp.

So be consistent. Either you're counting the recognized titles or you're ignoring them. You can't say belts shouldn't matter and what should matter is lineage, and then try to add lineage and belts together to inflate the numbers.

Pacquiao is not an eight division world champion because whether you count the recognized organizations or choose to favor lineage, in either philosophy, he wasn't the champion of eight divisions. Combining them to get to 8 is ridiculous and everyone should be ashamed for going along with Arum's nonsense.

World and lineal titles count.

Looking at any thread about Mickey I have no idea why he gets so much hate. He has a ton of skill is a very good fighter and he performs at a high level in every fight. He has had a lot of success yet remains humble.Dude gave up 2 1/2 years of his prime to stand up to the powers that be in the sport , just for that alone he gets my respect .WAR Mickey !!!!!!!!!!

This guy made history.

Only Márquez and Pacquiao won titles in 126, 130, 135 and 140 pounds.

Only Márquez and Morales won 4 belts in the history of mexican boxing, now García is with them in the podium.

Yea and so did broner ill be more impressed when he stops fighting slow footed square fighters.Now some have been pretty good good slow footed fighters(deff better then broners opps)but has yet to clear out a div or fight a guy who can move his feet and has fast hands.Linares will give a lot of probs for 1st half of fight but is to fragile to beat him.

Mikey showed last night that 140 is his limit.He a lot bigger then Loma so that would be good fight I think he gets beat BAD by Craw and you trying to get him killed vs Spence.Thats my 2 cents(if its worth that)

World and lineal titles count.

lineal titles dont exist. they are mythical.

cant add lineal plus world because the entire concept of lineal is to ignore world.

youre trying to have your cake and eat it too.

[Ray Corso]

Mickey stated that he'll go back to 135 then go to 147, I just threw in the return to 140!
Here's the point your a
"four" time world champ? Then fight the best guys out there, or don't go hog heaven over belts.

Loma and Crawford would be good match ups, Spence is a better puncher but I've seen better punchers lose.


When you state your plan follow through, all of those men would accept.
