Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: 100% I Want Mikey Garcia - But Can He Make 135?

[Madison Boxing]

Bumachenko right next to Bumlovkin is the biggest fraud in the sport today, not one proper opponent on his record yet he thinks he's good lol....lost to a fighter who put a bit pressure on him then kept fighting bums who either got paid to lose or simply did not want to win for w.e reason. He's basically saying with this that he's scared to move up just like bumlovkin was....gonna sit in that dead division and fight bums just like he has so far, he doesn't want another Salido that's for sure ...mikey went up fought the best fighter in the division...that ladies and gentleman is a true warrior with a heart.

I think Mikey would go to 140, I don't think he should go down to 135 from 147.

Mikey can make 135 if he is assured of a fight with Loma.

Arum should initiate an offer.

The mental midget went up to survive .There are more than a few fighters who could duplicate the performance that the heartless mental midget put on display.Ive said it before the stench he left in my living room still lingers.

Linares and Pedraza are weight cheaters at 135. Tank & Pacman are only 5'5" compare to 5'7" Loma.

First skills, second reach, 3rd height.

Pac and Tank are both 5ft 5 and half inches to be precise.

More importantly >> Pac and Tank both have a 2" reach advantage over Loma.

Both Loma's and Pac's exceptional skills and athleticism have allowed them to fight at weight classes where they have no business fighting, esp. Pac.

Loma going to 140 is a big disadvantage but Pac's age is against him - this would be a more intriguing fight than Spence-Garcia was.

I agree. But in that case why's he hanging on to his 135 belt if he can't/won't go back down to that weight?

he's just a troll and not even an entertaining one because he's reaching too hard

Just go down and fight the winner of Berchelt and Vargas. They are fighting in ESPN so there shouldn’t be a problem making that figh. Davis can fight nobodies, same with Tevin farmer.

Loma vs Berchelt/Vargas? that doesn't do anything for me. Loma vs Commey (less so), Davis or a 140 standout or Garcia or Pac would all be interesting.

As a side note : Whatever happened to Nicolas Walters? His career should not have been impossible to rebuild - seems like a lack of heart is a worse sin than being a ped user/abuser

If there's one accusation that you can't level at Mickey it's that he is heartless.

He announced he was back in training and preparing for a fight last year (unnamed opponent) but then radio silence since then.

Pretty sure he could have rebuilt if he was determined to do so - a string of low level fights against club fighters happy to share a ring with a relatively well-known name and he would have quickly notched up more highlight reel kos as well as stayed active, and eventually he would have been back. Guess he didn't want it that much.
