Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: I Want a Fight With Mikey Garcia, I Want Titles

[Nightfall]

Loma won and clowned Gervonta... pretty good night.

He beat a class D fighter So how did he clown Tank Daivis?

Good if Mikey man's up we can bet.

If Mikey mans up??? How about Lomachencko manning up and fighting Mikey at a comfortable weight. I have no clue what Mikey’s plans are. But if Lomachencko is only willing to fight Mikey at a 135 limit. That has the potential to end negotiations before they even start.

To the clowns

Loma topped at 126, dominating 135. Crawford outgrew 135, maybe tops at 147, does he dominate 147? does he move up past his topped weight of 147? Loma overall more accomplished career, amateur to pro.

even if Crolla was a bum, Loma still more ENTERTAINING doing it than the rest.

Lomachencko could end the hypothetical debate by calling out and beating Crawford.

Loma wouldnt say Mikey's name for years until Mikey moved up to 147 and looked chit.

Mikey aint coming back to 135 and has bad beef with Arum.

Loma knows fight aint happening and its safe to call out Mikey.

err, go back to mid 2016, and Loma was fighting at 126, and Mikey was fighting Rojas and weighing in at 138. Main talk at the time was Loma/Rigo.

Mikey/Loma only came onto the radar between mid 2016 and mid 2017, when Loma went up to 130, and Mikey went back to 135 in Jan 2017, at which time the weights got close enough that verbal sparring cound begin (although Mikey going to 140 for Broner kept then at 10lbs apart at the time as Loma was still 130 mid 2017).

One of the earliest exchanges between the two happened Dec 2016 (Loma's second fight at 130), where Mikey said 'if he comes to 135, we've got to make a fight'. Then Jan 2017:
- "We hear about Lomachenko from all of the media and reporters and the fans, but I have yet to hear anything from Top Rank or his manager mentioning my name. I would definitely take on a challenge like that if he comes up to 135,"
- "He's still at 130, I'm at 135 now. If he decides to move up, and they present me with that opportunity - we'll take it. But it's not up to me, it's up to him to move up. I'm not coming down. If anything he needs me at 135. I'm not coming down to 130 and I haven't heard anything from his promoter or his camp mentioning my name.

Then fast forward to Mar 2018, and it was:
- “If he wants to come up, I’ve been calling him out for a year and he still hasn’t moved up,

But then Loma DID move up to fight Linares 2 months later, so now we are where we are.

Loma started reacting to Mikey's public statements Mar 2017, with the opening salvos coming from Mikey Dec 2016.

So explain to us those years where Loma wouldn't mention Mikey's name again ?

But agree, Mikey not coming back to 135, he would be degraded by the weight loss, and as someone mentioned 'Brook 2.0'. Mikey doesn't need Loma, there is a lot of action at 140. He'll drop the belt for his own health reasons - nothing to do with Loma.

I think bottom line is they simply missed each other on the scales, and whatever games Arum was playing in the background probably didn't help either.

Mikey dealt with Spence very well. He runs right through lomachenko. 🥊

What the heck are you talking
about, Mikey was embarrassed by Spence. LoL and what ever happen to your “borrichenko” and “feather fisted” claims, 10k tickets sold and what a brutal KO. Loma puts people in seats and on their azzez, thats what happens...

Bring on STANK DaVIS!

[BreezyB]

You’re an idiot!

Now that Mikey got beat and is at 147, loma wants him?

**** outta here

Your name should be EL “DumbA$$” F@g. he’s been calling Garcia out for years. The issue is with Bob Arum. Those two want to fight each other, the impasse is Bob Arum. Mikey Garcia look like a big fat potato in there with Errol Spence. He look horrible in the later rounds. He was too slow for Spence with no power. He’ll be too slow Paloma, and he’ll have some power, but he’s too slow.

Referee Jack Reid did a good job in the wilder fury fight when fury went down in the 12th as the fight looked over and instead immediately waving off the fight started to count and we all know what happened, but I think he was wrong in the 3rd here and Crolla wasn’t down and he interjected himself like it was a tko victory. Bad call here by Reis.

Lies

Stop it with the lies!!!! He had every chances to fight Garcia before he went up in weight. As always if it doesn't benefit Arum or a cash out fight he doesn't make the fight. It was always stipulation on the weight before the Spence fight. Now you call out Garcia after he went up to weight classes. Stop publishing this proganda
