Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: Maybe We Can Make Mikey Garcia Fight Next Year

[Robbie Barrett]

wtf?? pac is already the best! what does beating small loma does anything for him?? im just calling out the BS from loma.

Not even close to being the best and he knows it. He's just in it for the money. Cherry picking. Crawford, Spence, Garcia would dominate Pacquiao.

Mikey Garcia is light years ahead of Pedraza as far as timing and technical skills, he has the power to do real damage to Loma.. We saw how badly beat up Loma's face was against Pedraza, this is a great fight I favor Mikey to win.

What a load of bollocks. Garcia has been calling out Lomachenko for the past couple of years. Lomachenko was never interested, the best we got was "in a few fights". Now he's mentioning him because Garcia is moving to 147 to fight a much more dangerous fighter and will likely not return to 135. Lomachenko never had any serious interest in a Garcia fight.

I've yet to see Mikey call him out. He always says he can't make fights with Top Rank and even Robert said they'd rather fight Loma is 4-5 years rather than now (about a year ago).

They'd never been in the same division but Loma did move to Linares (who Mikey called for then pulled out on) and Mikey fought a rather pointless fight with Lipinets and with Loma in the 135 division Mikey starts talking welterweight. Loma had been mentioning that he will be moving up to fight Mikey since about 5 fights ago when he'd barely had his 2nd fight at 130.

You're not being very objective. Mikey has never called out Loma, rather he put roadblocks up and excuses as to why it can't happen. One sounds like a guy with reasons why it can't happen the other sounds like a guy who wants to make it happen. Reminds me of Spence and Crawford and not surprisingly it's the Haymon clients putting up the roadblocks and fighting exclusively in house.

Deflection. You embarrassed yourself yet again implying Garcia left TR because of Loma. Loma had 1 damn fight When Garcia had his last fight for TR. You just make **** up you clown.

so why the fook did he left TR then start calling loma out??????? if he wanted to fight loma, he should have stayed and whoop on loma then bounce! why didnt he do that? because its easier to talk shiiet while you are on the other side of the fence lol

agreed with the bolded. team garcia has always said the fight will never happen because of arum and TR, yet they'll turn around and say they want manny next (when manny was still with TR) LOL!!!

One of the best match ups in boxing is now gone!

Mikey won’t be the same win, lose or draw!

Spence is gonna punish him like Mikey slept with his wife, and going back down to 135 would kill Mikey!

Loma won’t get any recognition for fighting him regardless, that was his legacy fight and he should’ve demanded Bob do everything in his power to make an offer Mikey wouldn’t refuse!

Loma’s only notable fight around his weight class is with Tank Davis if Davis cleans out 130 and moves up an gets a belt!

what mikey is doing is the same thing khan is doing.. they will NOT fight a guy their size with the same skill set and risk losing so instead they call out for bigger guys so if they lose, they can justify it.

Yeah, I mean I understand the politics but Mikey always talks of why fights can't be made instead of asking to work around. He's never said "I want Lomachenko let's make it happen", it's always "He's with Top Rank Bob won't let it happen" etc; etc;

Doesn't sound like a guy that's tried to make it or been open minded though I won't say he's ducked Loma. I think he ducked Gamboa and Linares though and he did ask for Cotto then declined it. I give him credit for the suicide mission against Spence though and think he'll retire shortly after or maybe fight Pacquaio?

Mikey will have broken orbital bones and ribs after the Spence suicide mission.
