Pedraza being the most recent example.
Rather than keep waiting on him Mikey decided to move up to fight a bigger, more dangerous opponent. You don't duck somebody by taking on a tougher fight.
It depends on the definition of a tougher fight. Mikey for example, might have a lot of difficulty fighting someone with Loma's style, other than someone with Spence's style. Now both present Dangers. One has the style to knock him out. The other has the style to dance circles around him. He might just think the guy he can hit often, he has the better chance against.

You have a way with words Big Stomps,lol but I do agree with you on this one. I don't understand all the hating on Mikey for taking this fight. He is using a nutritionist and supplement guy and trying different techniques. He is not just putting on fat for a payday. Will he beat Spence? That's why they fight. Something tells me that this is going to be a good one!

You don't take on a bigger, stronger opponent who's just as good. Even if he has a different style.

Originally posted by Boxing Logic View PostJust more lies coming from Mikey as usual, like when he said he was a small guy going up to 140 to challenge the bigger champion, Lipinets. Someone from Mikey's own camp who saw both he and Lipinets up close admitted Mikey was way bigger.
Just like no one was doubting Mikey vs Zlaticinin. Didn't he just lose to someone no one has ever heard of? Yeah he just got knocked out in 2 rounds by Roberto Ramirez lol. And no one was picking Broner or Easter over Mikey. I mean yeah, a couple people always pick the underdog, especially when it's a black American fighter because they have tons of biased fans, but neither of them are top guys either.
So Mikey keeps overinflating his resume and lying. Loma was supposed to come back and fight him after shoulder surgery? Loma offered to fight Mikey the second fight back after injury, early next year. He would not have had to wait any more than he had to wait to fight Spence. Remember Mikey said he wanted to fight late 2018? What happened Mikey? I thought you were your own boss? Instead you have to wait until March. But somehow it's cool when Al Haymon makes you wait for no reason, but not when Loma has to wait just 3 or 4 months for a legitimate reason, to get back from shoulder surgery.
This is the reason a lot of people don't like Mikey. Anyway, now Mikey vs Loma will never happen, thanks to Mikey, so he's going to have to be content with that decision going on his legacy, and I guess it is. Mikey ducked an opportunity to take the title of P4P King off Loma, and unify all four belts, in just one fight. I guess he didn't think he could win.

He tries to hard to give the impression that he's some boxing expert but in reality he doesn't know shet about boxing!
I wish he would just get to the fuccing point on what he wants to say instead of babbling on and on about nonsense...
But I agree with you. If Mikey can use his boxing skills and stay away from Spence's body shots then I think Mikey will make it interesting for as long as it lasts... I still favor Spence and I thinks he'll stop Mikey by 7-9 rounds but I won't totally say Mikey can't win... I've seen more crazier stuff in my life to say Mikey can't win....

He got tired of waiting on him. Just like I said.
