Why are people acting like Mikey Garcia didn't blatantly duck Lomachenko?

Losing to (probably) the best Ww looks much better than losing to a much smaller fighter. Not to mention Spence will probably be fighting at 154 before we know it.
Mikey looks "brave" for fighting Spence. Rather than yellow for trying to delay a showdown w/ Lomachenko.Comment

Originally posted by MDPopescu... OK, OK... Mikey lost... and just where is he at, right now?... is he on top of 140 division?... is he a 'stepping stone" in the 147 division?... tell me...He's clearly in a much better position than if he had lost to Lomachenko.

I was asking just where Mikey is at, right now -- which division and which money fights?... as the big money fight is already behind him...Comment

I know what the "general perception" is right now... I'm not here to defend a Mikey vs Loma fight... That ship sailed long ago, when Mikey left Arum...

Again, Spence is the best at 147, and no long for the division. Eventually a big-money-fight will surface. More than if he had lost to Loma.Comment

Well, he wasn't going to get a big money fight sticking around at 140. At this point, he has no where to go but up. If he had started w/ someone else: Porter, the other Garcia, the loser of Thurman-Pacquiao, then he'd be D.O.A.

Maybe. And probably not for the money and exposure he got from fighting Spence.
It's like walking into a bar, you always start talking to the hottest girl. Even if she's not exactly the one you have your eye on. You never work your way up. It's a social parachute.Comment
