    We don't know that yet. If he loses to someone like Luke Campbell yeah then maybe. I just don't want to hear the excuses if Lomachenko beats him fair and square

      There will be plenty of excuses and people will say spence beat him worse and ignore weight

        I was joking, Mikey's fine. Maybe he should fight someone before Loma

          ... In fact Mickey put on some muscle for the Spence fight... It remains to be seen if he can make 135 again in a healthy manner now... People (even big fighters) can't just move up and down weight divisions like that...

              I felt like this was coming. I think it's going to be a cash out too. You can't go up in weight that much and then go back to making big cuts. He's going to be drained and show up half assed.

                What if Loma Fights Comey after Crolla first and Mikey takes a fight before facing Loma,would it be better then or do you think his time at 135 is forever over?

                  I would imagine that depends on the weight agreed to.

                  Should Garcia beat Prograis for a title shot, I think it still maintains Garcia in top 5 P4P. Of course it depends on the nature of the left vs right different P4P publications, but for example Ring Mag seems to be forgiving in the top 5 P4P for guys who had lost their 0.

                  I guess the point I'm trying to make is that most people forget about the Loma vs Salido. So I would imagine that same culture would exist with Mikey should he continue winning, and if he were to KO Prograis, it would bring more attention to Mikey again.

                  So Mikey was 145.5, about 152 in the morning. Let's say Mikey was about 153-154 on fight night. He certainly didn't look drained at all of course.

                  So let's assume Mikey added 5lbs more overall muscle mass, I think Mikey could drain to a catch of 138lbs.

                  Now the question is, will Loma fans accept this catchweight of 138lbs? Would fans find that fair? I think so.

                  And should Mikey beat Lomachenko, it means Garcia goes to P4P #2 imo.

                  I forgot to add, if Rigo got a hydration limit with Loma. Then I'm sure Loma will want that with Mikey as well.

                    Historically, boxers are never the same after taking a big jump in weight, Roy Jones being the classic example. Mikey was getting big for 135 but he was more a 135 fighter than 140. I think he'd be a fool to go back to anything less than 140

                      Love to see them fight. If Loma puts on a boxing exhibition. He wins. If he tries to fight Mikie. Mikie wins.
