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

    This was a ***** move by Garcia. He moved up to 147 even though his own fans wanted him to stay at 135 to fight Lomachenko. Then this fool saw Lomachenko call him out in his hometown and just a couple weeks later he gives up his belt and ducks again! When will people realize this dude wants no part of Loma.

    No, that's just dumb. This fight was never even discussed, so how is it a duck? If both were in the same stable and there were talks between the teams of the fight happening and then he moved up to fight say someone like Jessie Vargas? Then sure, call it a duck. But none of those things happened. And dude went after Spence, who most considered the best WW in the world.

      He didn’t duck anybody.

      That Loma fight is still there and will always be, that’s why Miley took a calculated risk And career high payday.

      Same as Brook when he faced Triple G. Brook got seriously injured which hurt his fight with Spence but Brook could’ve had either welter champ because he meant money and exposure to a popular UK market.

      Mikey right now has his ego destroyed, which is why he ain’t making no noise about any fights or anything for that matter.

      Mikey will fight Loma next if the price is right.

        And Mikey was talking about fighting Spence for a while and it's not like Lomachenko was coming off some spectacular performance at the time either. When Mikey and Spence got in talks of fighting, Lomachenko was coming off the Linares fight which was damn near an even fight at the time of the stoppage.

          clear duck. not saying mikey is afraid of loma but the risk is there and losing to loma is much worst than losing to spence. same path khan is going when he fought crawford instead of brook.

            Yes he did. He could have fought Lomachenko at 135 but he fought Spence instead. I'm telling you Garcia will never fight Lomachenko ever. Mikey don't want none!

              Exactly. Khan had no problem getting smashed to pieces by Canelo and Crawford but its obvious that for some reason he won't fight Brook.

                lol excuses excuses. You sound like a *****. Explain to me why Mikey just vacated his title then after Lomachenko called him out? I'm telling you he will never fight Loma!.

                  There’s still time to make that fight
                  Only problem is Mikey can’t get down to 135
                  So if Loma wants it that bad he would need to move up to 140
                  And I don’t believe Garcia ducked him , just looking for greener pastures
                  Fought Spence , pretty damn sure him and his team knew was the harder victory to get

                    Its true. This whole thing about "legacy" and moving up in weight was just a clever mask for the blatant duckage
