Comments Thread For: Arum: If Mikey Garcia Doesn't Like Offer To Fight Loma - F*** It!

This should tell/confirm to the world who the actual road block was with making FMJ VS. PAC. This also yells the world just how confident Arum is as it relates to Lomo beating M Garcia. If Arum felt Lomo could beat Garcia he'd make the fight in a heartbeat as a Lomo victory means that much more money for Arum. Yet Bob says he won't negotiate the biggest fight that can be made at 135 right now and for the foreseeable future. Yeah right.

mikey is a free agent so he can flex more to make things happen, that's if he really wants it. but since the arum excuse is already out there, we know that's what they're gonna roll with.

So Arum complains that he won't negotiate with Mikey because he wants things his way? Isn't that what Arum wants and expects in order for fighters not with Top Rank to fight his fighters. Arum talks about doing cross promotional with other promoters but he expects those fighters to fight his fighters on his terms and platform. Arum isn't going to send Crawford or Loma to HBO or Showitme and expects fighters like Spence, Thurman, Garcia to go to ESPN to make the fights. Arum will send over a low quality fighter to another network but not his stars. HBO was willing to pay more money for Loma/Linares but Arum wasn't having it and pretty much it was Linares who forced GB and HBO to make the fight. That was Linares biggest payday. Mikey has already said he could offer Loma more money and we know Arum has already started with Mikey will price himself out. Arum hasn't even had a conversation with Mikey, he says for Mikey to call him, but would he entertain Mikey making an offer to Loma which would be more than what Arum would pay?

Originally posted by chubuk7 View PostLOL, yeah that's why Mikey is fighting kickboxers and **** LMAO. He's easy work for Loma, much slower and less athletic than Linares. Garcia will not take the fight and it is nothing about Arum. He knows he looses, loma has better timing and is just too complete a fighter.
