Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia: My Main Target, Focus and No. 1 Goal is Spence!

[_Rexy_]

does anyone actually believe this fight will happen? Mikey won't even defend his 140 title, but he wants to face the biggest guy at 147?

Damn Chris I just drove from norcal Stockton to watch Mikey batter Easter like a little Ho around the Ring,, you don't got no love for the local homeboy you ain't got no support for Mikey from the LA area when all he does is want to challenge himself?

when does challenging yourself ever included empty words, without any action to back it up.

small dog barks, but never bites. not sure who the hell you support there budd

This is all talk. Spence would sign for the fight yesterday.

I wonder if Pacquiao (not that he's gotten Arum out of the way) would consider the fight.

Floyd has a better chance of facing Canelo at 160 than this fight has of happening.

Good to hear Mikey! Believe in yourself! Make it happen! Funny how so many people think this is such a mismatch! Mikey has beaten Broner and Lipinets at 140! Crawford was undisputed champion @ 140! What's the difference? Did Jeff Horn make Crawford more of a legit contender @ 147 than Mikey Garcia? They're both Jr. WWs that moved to 147. The difference is Mikey is choosing a MUCH BETTER OPPONENT @ 147!

Spence should first focus on trying to make a porter unification. If that doesn’t work out then he can focus on fighting this smaller man that presents no belt and only a name.

Great point about both Mikey and Crawford coming up from 140. I hadn’t thought of that but 100% agree. Crawford was champ at 135, then 140, now people are clamoring for him to fight Spence at WW. somehow folk think Mikey is a mismatch even though he and Crawford are of similar size and even fought in the amateurs.

When Crawford went up for Horn, nobody felt he was moving too fast because we knew that Horn didn't beat Pacquiao, and we knew he was trash! Now with Mikey, it's different only because it's Spence! However, I feel Mikey deserves some applause, he chose the better WW! Even if Mikey chooses to fight Pacquiao @ 147, I still say he chose the better WW!

Not a Mikey fan (nor am I a hater) but you guys need to stop talking out your asses and get some facts.

Showtime are the ones stalling the fight not Spence or Garcia.

They want the fight to be on ppv which is why they want to postpone it to next year because there already is a ppv event between Wilder and Fury at the end of the year and having both at around the same time will affect sales.

This was made clear by Espinoza himself.

We all know spence isnt stalling anything and i dont care what espinoza says, NOBODY can take anything Mikey Garcia says as being true when he drops names! i dont trust a thing he says!! Now with that being said, if by some reason mikey is actually serious about spence fight, it will be soooo pathetic that it has to take a fighter who is has to move up two wt classes to fight spence. The time has come and all the other top wws need to man up and fight spence.

So what's taking so long then????? Spence is not with Arum and Mikey is a free agent so what's the hold up?
