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

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

Loma KOs or makes Mikey quit on the stool... Mikeys never seen such speed in his life and never sees the punch that drops him... either lights out or no mas Guaranteed!

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.

If Mikey was to get paid 7 million to fight Crolla at 135 I bet he could make weight no problem. But for Loma for 10 million?

Mikey going up to 147 was a cash grab, he might not even be able beat a top 5 at 147. At 140 the only belt holder he could handle is probably Ramirez. it’s unlikely he could beat prograis or Taylor, he already had his hands full with Lipinets. Loma is his biggest fight atm the moment

You didn't see the post-fight press conference?

Floyd fan boys only read FloydHype.com I guess.

Let’s see what Mikey does with his belt. If he vacates he’s ducking. Simple.

I wouldn't go that far, man. I know Mikey made 135 for Easter last year but that cut's only gonna get harder as he ages and having added the mass for Spence will compound the problem. I'd really like to see that fight, but I ain't a believer in fighters compromising their abilities or their health to make weight.

Ain't gonna fault a guy for not fighting at a weight he can't make without killing himself... if Mikey fights anyone else at 135 though, it really ain't a good look.

Exactly. Crolla wouldn't survive ONE round with Davis.

Loma’s 100/1 Can-Crushing expedition got u fanboys hype, lol

[Brother Mouzone]

I want to see Mikey fight someone else before Loma , he is coming off a loss he needs some confidence via a good strong showing and a win. Mikey vs Commey & Loma vs Tank co main events winners fight each other.
