Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia-Danny Garcia Late Summer Fox PPV in Talks

Best available match up. I like it. I'd prefer Bud vs Danny but Arum's Karma wont allow that, so this is cool to me.

arum offered danny a fight with crawford but of course danny turned it down and ducked crawford knowing full well he'd get destroyed. bob arum has al gaymon's entire roster on the run lol no of them want any part of crawford.

Mexico vs Puerto Rico will attract an audience. Especially in California.

This is also a highly strategic move by al haymon. He knows FOX will heavily promote this fight with tie ins and mentions on other sports shows and live sporting events. He knows that arum has sought to make fights for Crawford and Loma for both fighters. This is also one that will capture two groups of Latinos...Mexican Americans and Puerto Rican’s with that age old rivalry....this is an attempt to be seen more than canelo’s last fight on dazn. We will see how it all plays out in the wash but I can see the angles Haymon is playing. The Harvard business school graduate is combining aspects of Machiavelli’s “availability” with Sun Tzu’s “Victorious warriors win first and then go to war, while defeated warriors go to war first and then seek to win.” Ie....while Hearn and arum are being seen, talking, calling for boycotts, making racial statements, insulting fighters for not signing with them or their app, haymon is making moves on a chess board. The worst thing both guys could have ever done is try to directly erode PBC....haymon is a silent assassin.

bob arum is out here making chess moves signing new fighters and positioning his other fighters to get all the belts. his fighters regularly spank gaymon's fighters. arum pulled off a real genius move when he signed fury al gaymon wasn't smart enough to see it coming. now arum will be involved in the huge rematch and cash in on that when originally only pbc was going to

PPV??? wtf.....Haymon getting greedy....will flop especially after that snoozer ppv Spence v Garcia!! Will likely b another boring drama free fight....both these guys like to play it safe in big fights and counter....especially Danny - who will do the minimum each rd and hope for a decision win.

I think something has been lost in translation........ITS CALLED PAY PER VIEW......You show your displeasure by not watching it...........AND PAY IF YOU WANNA WATCH (VIEW) IT, if you agree........ ITS SIMPLE LIKE COMPLAINING YET DOING NOTHING

I’m buying! I don’t biatch until AFTER a fight. This could be AWESOME or could suk? Who knows.

The boxing rivalry between Puerto Rico and Mexico is intense, but the rivalry between American boxers of Puerto Rican ancestry and Mexican ancestry -- not so much. There is no Mexico vs Puerto Rico rivalry involved in this proposed match-up.

Mexican-American vs. Puerto Rican American

At least Mikey is fighting hard fights , lomachenko fought Anthony crolla for his last one, a bum. And now wants to fight Richard commey , who is Robert Easter's leftovers smh

I think the criticism is more toward Danny on this one. Mikey isn't a good fit for 147.
