    If the Loma doesn't happen because of this you can bet that the detractors will say that it's Loma's fault. I really have a hard time believing that Garcia would duck Loma but I don't understand why he moved up to 140.

      You’re too old to be talking about ducking.

      The Loma fight wasn’t happening anyway and the parties empowered to make decisions know this. So of course they’re getting on with their careers. Or they can pretend to appease you.

        Did Garcia think that Loma and Linares were going to sit around and wait for him to decide to fight them? He had a chance to fight Linares and passed. Now he's going to duck the winner? There are no big fights at 140.

          Yea is Arum is a stubborn old fart. I believe Loma and Garcia want to fight each other and in a perfect world it would happen.

                But just a post ago you were talking about Garcia ducking. See, if you understand that this fight isn’t happening because Garcia and Arum aren’t working together any time soon, then why make that post in the first place? Why are you saying this “move to 140” as if he hasn’t already been there for his last two fights?

                Garcia wants the big fights and that’s what he’s chasing. He was only going down to 135 for unification and the expectation was that he’d fight Linares next. Now that that’s been pulled out from under him, and Easter has to fight Commey, why wouldn’t he stay at 140? He’ll make his mandatory, fight Prograis and then move to 147 if he’s victorious.

                  1st off Linares is not gonna beat Loma. Soo Mikey would have to deal woth Bob Arum and we ALL know how well that will go....

                  Who gets more $$$$
                  Who A-Side
                  Al Haymon/Bob Arum
                  Mikey Garcia 2 years sueing Top Skank.

                  This would be as hard as it was to make Mayweather/Pac.

                  Cant believe soo many fans think this is a giveme fight???

                  Ill believe in Big Foot before I believe this fight would happen...

                      It was never happening, which is why they both raced to make the Linares fight. Garcia thought he had the drop, but the Bobfather always has some tricks up his sleeve.

                      Garcia is obviously serious about going to 147 although I think he might want to holla at Memo or Canelo's dealer before doing that.
