Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia: I Can Stop Lomachenko, He's Not Invincible

[apollocreed]

As of now I pick Garcia to win but I don't get the "Loma fought limited competition before Linares" thing. The guy has fought 7 former and current champions in his first 12 pro fights. So now Rigo, Walters, Gary Russell, etc are weak competition? C'mon man...

Besides people don't give Linares enough props. Dude is super skilled. I hate to compare them but people forgot that Floyd also struggled against B level fighters like Maidana and Castillo in his first fight against them. But nobody said that he is struggling "because he is stepping up competition"

I really have to take issue on you comparing Floyd's first fight with Maidana with Loma vs Linares - Floyd didn't get hit with power shots anywhere near as much, or get knocked down. Loma took a lot more leather on Saturday.
With the Castillo fight, Floyd did get hit more, but he was carrying an arm injury which was hampering him, he set the record straight in the immediate rematch though. Plus he still wasn't knocked down by Castillo.

mikey "woulda shoulda coulda" gracia... always running that mouth. this dude has been super annoying since he became his "own boss". mikey tries to come off like a quiet humble guy but get him to start talking and he'll ramble on about BS!

"beating loma wouldnt mean anything because everyone will just say he's too small, i rather fight spence"..

"i rather fight spence than crawford. crawford is a runner"...

I think bud would beat Mikey! Loma might out work Mikey.

It depends what you define as exciting.Yes seeing 4ft 7 midgets display their exceptional skills can be thrilling but nothing beats 2 over 6ft 5 knockout artists ,both undefeated, both with noticeable flaws and both contesting to be the undisputed Heavyweight champion of the world. Not to mention irrespective of who you are rooting for in the fight whoever wins the fight wouldn’t be a surprise

Personally I'd much rather watch Garcia v Loma than Wilder v Joshua. Not everyone thinks the same way as you. I'm a purist, I like to watch exceptional fighters. Heavyweight is the division I'm least interested in, I haven't really cared about it since the 90's when Lewis and Holyfield were fightng (before Holyfield got too old).

Hell yeah infact that is how everyone see's Mikey winning. Most will agree they think Mikey stops Lomachenko. ]

Uuummmm NO?
Mikey as
simple as two sox, Loma will put him through matrix and embarrass him!!!! Easy win

Lomachenko has a much better resume than Mikey

His opponents are better than any fighter you have fought Mickey.

Broner would make easy work of everyone on Lomachencko’s resume.

I agree with the people who see it as a 50/50 fight. I give the edge to Mikey at this point. Not sure Arum is gonna make this fight any time soon though.

These are two of my favorite fighters. May the better fighter win!

... "Garcia: I Can Stop Lomachenko, He's Not Invincible"...

Yes... I also don't see Arum ever giving Mickey another payday as long as he is alive...

Behind Wilder vs Joshua this is the fight I wanna see the most.

Agreed, look like we have a big fan of the sweet science over here.

I rather see Wilder displays his cute balanced skills than that hype job Lomo to be honnest.

Or Joshua slick game than that mexican bum of Mickey.
