If he's gonna go for a belt at 147, now is probably the time to strike and Lucas is the guy to go after. He looked damn slow against Kiram. I love Lucas, but Mikey will easily out-box him at this stage, the question will be, if/when La Maquina lands, can Mikey take it?

I would hope Garcia would the winner of Imam/Ramirez vs Prograis but I doubt it. He is a Cherry picking clown.Comment

Mikey might not be fighting the best there is in each weight class, but he's still fighting decent fighters.
Not to mention, he's moving up in weight a lot. That's highly respectable. Even great fighters can look ordinary once they start moving up too much weight.
Mikey's weight career:
126 - basically up until 2013
130 - mid 2013 to early 2014
135 - cameback at 138 in 2016, fought for a title at 135 in 2017
140 - 2017-2018
Now he's eyeballing another weight class? He doesn't even look like a real 140 lber. That deserves credit.Comment

Yeah I feel like him versus Relikh or Matthysse is a tougher match than him versus an Easter. So all the talk of unification is silly to me. I’d rather the tougher challenge.Mikey might not be fighting the best there is in each weight class, but he's still fighting decent fighters.
