Hes been saying in interviews how he feels stronger at 135 and wants to have a couple more fights there and unify with easter, now they announce the loma linares fight and he changes his tune and even robert garcia says now that loma linares is happening mikey will stay at 140. What a joke. I almost crapped myself when robert garcia said "you know how mikey like those tough fights" lmao
    LOL I know. More and more are starting to see the games they are playing. Lets stay at 140, there are some newbie prospects to pick on there.

      Just a few weeks ago Mikey was talking about going back down to fight Easter, but now the game has changed.
      Well Robert already said the loma fight will have to happen in 4 years. No biggie LOL

          The Garcias don't seem to think that Mikey "gets destroyed at 147". Errol Spence's name keeps coming up in articles about Mikey.

          A unification with the Ramirez/Iman winner could be nice, but then Mikey might get ****blocked by Bob Arum again. Did you notice how quickly the Loma-Linares fight got made after Mikey won his last fight? Arum couldn't stand the thought of Mikey and GBP making money together so he had to hurry up and snatch up Linares.
          arum wanted to take the next step to make Loma a superstar. While mikey fought Lipinets he could have signed that three fight deal with gbp and best Cotto and Linares by now and be looking at a Matthysse fight and being free agent again.

          But instead he signed with pbc and is stuck with fighting their stable which is weak at 135 and 140

            What's the hype with Easter? He's trash. Any other champion at 140 is a bigger challenge than Easter. I have no issue with the move at 140.

              After Prograis wins that WBC belt lets see if Garcia is brave enough to fight him.

                Mikey says he o my wants big fights. Easter is a bigger fight than relihk or imam or prograis however you spell it. Nobody knows them

                  Stay at 140, 147 is too steep for you.

                    Nobody gives a sht about some skinny ass african Easter. He is ordinary and uninteresting.

                    Garcia dont need to fight no Easter. He got some real tough fights at 140.

                      He’s American just like you. Nobody cares about relihk or a broner rematch either
