    BTW: Can't blame the PBC, Spence or anyone else because the line of people telling Mikey not to fight Spence was longer than a new iphone sale.

    Mikey insisted on the fight ... Therefore only one person can be blamed for the fight and its foregone conclusion.
    Lol... Mikey 'I see something' Garcia

      Mikey has to rebuild his profile and fan base with some sparkling displays. The Spence fight was a PR disaster.

          I don’t see a bright future for mikey, especially at welterweight where he is just too small. Best option for him is to sign with whomever is going to get him the biggest fights before he retires because that’s what I see coming. He has already accomplished what he was going to in boxing. Hearn needs an American star badly, and I mean badly, he has been a dismal failure with dazn and dazn just seems intent on throwing money at what they think will make money even though mikey has never really had a big fan base. Top rank seems the best option for the Loma fight but something tells me that Loma has about a couple of years left in the sport himself

            Mikey is an exposed old shoe without a belt.

              Mikey should fight a lower rank boxer as a tune up to stay away from a second loss in a row. Definitely, he's going to avoid the fighters to the likes of Khan, Danny, Porter, (even Khan)..Lol...

              He should be a commentator... Seriously!!!

                Who says they sign the winner? Prograis is already with DiBella, and Josh Taylor is with the McGuigan's (on top of that Mikey and Ramirez train under Mikey's brother).

                Jose Ramirez isn't a bankable enough fighter for the eventual three-belt champion to simply chase, and assuming so is a mistake.

                If Mikey plays it straight, he works to get a 1+1 with Top Rank to fight Lomachenko at 135lbs, and then sees what the Prograis-Taylor winner does.

                  Only short deals

                  Sign with whomever, but no long term deals. 2 fight deal or 3 max and that's it. Make sure you have a good lawyer to read and re-read the contract!!

                    Mikey is a proven draw in so cal, any promoter would be smart to sign him.

                      So I don't get this point that you and Mammoth are making. We all witnessed many people including his own brother and trainer say that they tried to talk him out of this fight. Then a bunch of his fans and others showed weird pride by saying that he was "daring to be great". Now, it's PBC's fault?? If anyone takes blame it should be Robert. BTW, were you one of those saying he was daring to be great?
