A clash of styles
Well, if it’s gonna happen, it’s gonna happen, no matter what we say. I just don’t think it’ll be such a great fight. I think Lomachenko would be biting off more than he can chew. Pound for pound I think he’s better, and more exciting than Mikey, but the size difference will tell, in my opinion.
It would be a super fight with real life time legacy implications. The real question is will the money be enough?
Lomachanko always brings up fighting for legacy, his Dad, history and money always comes in a distant second. Mikey on the other hand wants to get paid a lot to fight. I don't think he really cares about legacy as much as the business end of it. Since his return the fights Mikey makes or doesn't make alway come down to a guaranteed amount or split.
If Mickey can make better money without facing Lomachenko that's the avenue he'll take. Even with Mikey's size advantage Lomachenko, like Floyd, is a very difficult style.Comment

Mikey made a mistake by going up in weight and I think Loma made a mistake going up in weight. Mikey shouldn't have went any higher than 140 and Loma doesn't look as dominant at 35 they both need to move down in weight. I think Loma lost some of his speed at '35 and his power isn't as devastating at that weight. Not to mention if comes across big 135 lber with power. Pedraza can't crack a egg that was his problem. I see why they turned down the Pac fight he would have got schooled by 40 year old Pac.
This isn't my opinion it's verifiable, it's all a mater of record.Comment

Basically implying that Mikey would lose. So why should anyone believe Lomachanko? Because Loma will honestly tell you the fighters he can't beat. Loma will name names but Mikey just isn't one of them, not even close.Comment

In the first fight Padraza was weight drained and his game plan was not to box but slug it out. As soon as the fight started the commentator went off because he couldn't believe the ******ity of Padraza's fight plan. Padraza didn't have a plan and everyone watching the fight knew he had abandon his best advantage.
For the record....in Loma's post fight interview, when Padraza was asked who was better he laughed at any comparison between Lomachanko and Davis as if to imply that it was a ****** question. "No doubt Lomachanko is the better boxer."Comment

I'm not so sure Mikey wins, I have serious doubts. Mikey is a great fighter with power and timing. Lomachanko is fast, fights at weird angles, moves and he's relentless. IMO, if they fight...Loma either wins by points or Mikey catches him because Mikey doesn't throw enough to beat Loma any other way.

"Lomachenko Wants More Belts, Hopes For Mikey Garcia "
Typical eurozozo, when Garcia wanted to face him he say NO and now he will fight Spence; Loma say he want to fight Garcia pff
The same with Joshua and his brithead promoter with Wiler/FuryComment

That's funny because if you took the time to look up the video and listen, you'd know that Lomachanko told Mikey to his face that Mikey was good but way too slow.

I get that you're a supporter of his but you have to realize that Loma's too small, it'll be GGG-Brook or Canelo-Khan all over again.Comment

BTW this photo is from the period where Loma was in 130 div and days before a fight, while Mikey was growing his belly for 140 div with a fight in 3? months.Comment
