Bob Arum Plans Exposed! NEVER WANTED TO FIGTH MIKEY GARCIA! LOMACHENKO DUCKING!

Loma wants Mikey. Arum is a business man and yes, Mikey lost a lot in the Spence fight physically. He fought defensively but he did take a beating and cutting weight might be tough at 135 from 147.
If I was Mikey I’d ask for the fight immediately though. Huge payday as another dog, this time I think he beats Loma.
I predicted Spence with an 8th rd KO so Mikey going the distance is a good look to us true boxing fans, but to casuals he’s damaged goods.Comment

Mikey went up and weight and for all the hype and belief that he would do it, he just wasn't himself at 147. Mikey's a great fighter and I too thought he was capable of the upset. But people act like he's done after one loss at a weight he's never fought in, smh. That's the feedback you get when undefeated records have been glamorized and overrated. Mikey's a natural 135 pounder who can do amazing things at that weight. But it doesn't matter how good you are if your body doesn't respond well to you.
This is a far fetched example but imagine being a marathon runner for years and then trying to do one after gaining considerable weight. It's gonna take a toll on your body. You're not going to perform the same. You're still the same guy but that's about. The body's not there and that's what happened to Mikey.
Bob Arum is not anxious to make the Garcia/Loma fight. It seems like he's taken Mikey's loss and ran with it, using it as justification to not make the fight. Once Mikey comes back and looks good again at a more natural weight the hype will be there again guaranteed.Comment

I agree one loss doesn't break your career. I am worried that he will end up like Brook though. Moving down in weight can be awful for your conditioning. It if negatively impacts fights that could of happened before he moved up it will be frustrating.Mikey went up and weight and for all the hype and belief that he would do it, he just wasn't himself at 147.
