Robert says Mikey vs Loma wont happen

[Redd Foxx]

Bob has already dismissed the idea of even negotiating with Garcia. Fans are busy pointing fingers at one fighter or the other and entirely ignoring the fly in the ointment, Bob Arum. Anyone remember the excuses he gave about Mayweather?

I don't believe Mikey wants to fight Loma. The dude always has some bs excuses. Always. He's full of crap.

He'll just say he'd rather fight Spence.

Exactly. I see through the games. Only reason he came back down to 135 for Easter is because Easter has looked very vulnerable his last few fights.

Bob also said if Garcia really wants to fight, to call him. Bob just does not want his time wasted. He knows what Mikey is like as well as anyone.

You can't excuse him on this "call me" thing when he already said he's not going to be bothered negotiating with the guy.
I like Loma too but people seem to be quick to forget exactly what kind of a guy Arum is. After the war he had with Mikey, I'm sure he'll do everything possible to spite him. They pretty much had to go over his head to make May/Pac happen but suddenly he's a "just call me" kinda guy? You know that's not true.

This is the guy who STILL takes jabs at Trump over old business dealings. He's one spiteful bastard.

Robert said Mikey will never fight on a Bob arum card because there's more money to make on his Mikey's side.

No point in Bob talking if Mikey wont go to espn.

mikey is a free agent so it shouldnt be hard to make this fight. take the smaller cut if he has too and prove he's better but this wont happen and the blame will be on arum.

Yup every time there’s a top rank fighter involved in a big fight they pull out of negotiations and fight another top rank fighter, but everyone’s on Lomas nuts so they won’t see it

Even if its gets made it wont be this year, Robert thinks it would be a big fight on cinco de mayo next year.

So, it's Mikey's fault if he doesn't want to get ripped off? Seriously?
If they won't pay him more for such an anticipated fight, then it's not Mikey's burden. This isn't amateur boxing. People leave Bob because he's such a miserly old ***.

No, I think Robert would be open to both promotion like May vs Pac or Tyson vs Lennox style but i don't even know if Bob cares anymore he's lately been grumpy i wouldn't take what hes saying now in days to heart. He didn't even know that much about a possible Davis fight. Maybe Todd is the one the works behind the scene with Arums old age.
