Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia Drops, Defeats Robert Easter To Unify IBF, WBC Belts

You know that the same could be said about Crawford's decision to stay with Arum right? I mean he knew he'd be stuck with no quality comp at 147. (See how that argument sounds?)

Cut the nonsense. He left because of that extra 10%-15% coming out for Top Rank.

More like 50-60%++

Career suicide if Mikey fights Spence. He's talked a lot but he actually sounds serious this time.

...never underestimate a Chicano...nuff said!!

I dont think so? So what if he loses?? I agree Spence is WAY to big! But if he fights him and loses ohh well. It was like Oscar when he fought Hopkins. He got mad respect. REAL boxing fans dont care if he tries for greatness and falls a lil short.

Exactly. These posters here have no sense of history. His move wouldn't be that crazy.

If he sees something that we can't, then as a P4P fighter, I trust his judgment. Let him fight!

Make pac-garcia happen.

Why would he need to worry about Loma? We just saw Loma struggle with weight at 135.

I think he feels he can always come down and take that fight. Loma isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Ray Beltran and Pedraza are hopeless comp for him.

Mikey wants to take on a challenge. Why not Spence?

Exactly! Mikey will lose then come back to 135 where he belongs. Win/win

Im down for that! Be one hell of a crazy fight as both are all about angles...

I dont understand some ppl??? He wants to be great and try it so why not? Hes to good to die in the ring and skilled to take a serious beating.

I have no problem with him fighting Spence if he actually is serious about this i say awesome do what no-one else is doing.
I just cant see Mikey going thru with it.

[MeanestNiceGuy]

LMFAO!!!! Can't argue with this!

Mikey using Spence name so he doesnt need to talk about Loma even though Mikey has no intention of making this fight.

“After a period of not fighting, it would be ****** of me to step right in there against Mikey. Of course, I’d like to fight someone like Beltran,” Lomachenko said. “Beltran would be easier than Mikey.

On top of that Arum has said

If [Garcia] wants to fight, let him call me and I'll give him a number. If he doesn't like the number - f*** it - I ain't negotiating!

Mikey isn't talking Loma, because Loma has already said he won't fight Mikey this year, and because Loma's promoter has already said he will refuse to negotiate with Mikey. So, while Loma is saying he wants an easy fight next, Mikey is saying he wants the toughest fight out there.

Mikey fought for a title at 135, then he fought AB at 140, then he fought the only champ at 140, and people cried because he won a title in a higher division, so he went back to 135, where Linares backed out of his agreement, and so Mikey fought the toughest at 135 willing to fight him. Now Loma has already said no, and Arum won't negotiate so that means no Beltran either. So who else is there at 135? Who is there at 140? I would say Prograis, but he is in the WBSS, so that's not an option either. He has been fighting the best. 12 fights in a row have been against champions or former champions.

Mikey is fighting Spence later this year. Spence will probably win, most likely by ko, but Mikey will give a good performance. And while Mikey is out there fighting the best, Loma will be fighting guys who are easier. Because that is what he wants. He even said so. And Arum has said he won't negotiate with Mikey. lmao. Yea, sure seems like Loma wants the fight but Mikey is running scared.
