    that implies they have the same skill though.

    And you act like Mikey is much bigger. Linares has a bigger reach, and is taller than Mikey.

    Plus, like was mentioned earlier, Mikey is a soft 135-140. Which could work for some fighters, but Loma will target the body.

    How so? Mikey is just as skilled, he's just more subtle about it and grounded in fundamentals. People really drinking the Lomachenko kool aid because of the flash. His style can be and will be figured out and neutralized just like every fighter's style has. Mikey has the perfect style and brain to do it. Lomachenko has tremendous flaws, they just haven't been exploited by anybody. Him getting dropped by Linares and bullied by Salido were just flashed of what can come.

        because mikey only fights slow guys that stand in front of him(broners not slow but he has concrete feet and stood there with gloves up entire fight).

            Lomachenko should not fight Garcia as yet.

            Many other fights to have before hand.

            And the fight with Garcia could well be the pinnacle of his career.

            Should happen at the end of 2019-2020

                Loma will most probably fight Beltran in the late summer.
