Looks Mickey vs Loma will happen.

[Scipio2009]

400k on showtime or few million,viewers watching him on ESPN ,

You know that the audience in the US was far more than that, lol

Why do people care what network its on?

or if haymon says do it on pbc fox then what?

[chrisJS]

I hope so but doubt it. It’s Mikey Garcia afterall. All talk no action/follow through. I stopped believing anything he says. He could get the fight on his network, his venue, his everything and he’d find a way to face a softer opponent. It’s a consistent theme with him.

Remember people want to give him credit for pretending he wanted to fight Spence? How did that go?

[DaBeastO]

4 fights where the other side was favored to lose and had no other options. Mikey, like Spence, has options. And Russell was a purse bid Arum lost.

linares had options and wasn't some huge underdog. Loma was moving up to challenge him in his weightclass. linares is a golden boy fighter and that fight was still made. you salty bums need to get your facts straight. just more hate from the bobfather haters what else is new?

[CodeBreaker]

This is the 2nd fight I'm itching to see after Crawford/Spence.


And then there's Joshua/Wilder

What options? Linares has never been a draw. He was making 250k headlining at the forum in front of less 3k fans. GB didn't want to make the fight unless it was on HBO, HBO was offering more money and Arum said screw them. Linares pretty much had to force GB to allow him to take the fight after they screwed up the Mikey fight by asking for 50/50.

You wonder why Arum tone has changed from this...


To now being more willing than ever to make this fight? ESPN applying that Pressure I THINK, time to step things up particularly after DAZN just landed Canelo, Pacquiao just left him, they need BIGGER and BETTER FIGHTS on their Platform Immediately if they're investing all this money into boxing. Clearly whoever gave Arum the ESPN Deal wasn't aware of how THIN his Roster is so now he has to delivery big fights BUT HE doesn't have NOT 1 Big In House Match Up he can delivery to them



and Name Calling is not going to help make things better either

your spewing nonsense. pressure? Lol when has arum given in to pressure by anybody? Top rank does great ratings on ESPN. check the last big card with crawford.it did massive numbers. loma's last two fights we're against top fighters who are signed with rival promoters. loma vs mikey will happen and you will give arum credit or will you continue to look like an ass and ignore reality?

screwed up? lol just because he asked for 50-50? wtf that makes no sense
