    He already said is is between Manny and Brook, so that means Brook is next.
    You see Crawford going up to 154?

      Garcia is saying he'd fight Crawford, he's just not saying how much he'd ask arum for or that he'd price himself out of the fight!

        if he actually fights Crawford, that is commendable, but if he fights like he did against Spence, it's another disgraceful money grab

          I think Mikey has a chance! Terrance is less dangerous than Spence, and even if Mikey took a beating. He was never really hurt by Spence to the point of almost being ko’d stop hating on the kid. if Khan was able to get a fight with Crawford with much less credentials than Mikey, then why not Mikey? Thekid is the ice man of boxing!

            Mikey just going around selling L’s to whoever wants them.


            Mikey Garcia is the special ingredient in the Spence/Crawford marinade I guess.

              It was thinking this not long ago, Bud is not a big Welterweight at all he is much closer to Mikey Garcia size

              I've always liked this fight...however considering how upset Bob got when Marcos asked him about Mikey Garcia yeah I don't think Arum will be doing any business with Mikey anytime soon

                Tough to take Mikey seriously after the poor effort vs spence. Props if he tries to fight Crawford but Crawford has more of a mean streak than spence. He won't let Mikey go 12 and if he does, it'll be one of those career ending beat downs.

                  Do any of you watch boxing? Or do you just see fighters names and just throw out opinions on how good you think a fighter is? Styles make fights. So let's break it down.... Mikey dominates fights when opponents allow the fight to be at his pace. And he struggles with pressure fighters. Crawford tries to capitalize on opponents mistakes. But he's not a brawler by nature (although he can). So if this fight were to happen (which it won't). The first 4 rounds would be a chess match. Not a lot of action. Mikey has a stone chin and Crawford is savvy as anyone. Crawford would likely take a close decision unless Mikey can land some'm fierce, which he often does. But I wouldn't expect either fighter to get beat up really bad. Crawford knows he's never fought anyone on the level of Mikey Garcia. So he'd be more cautious than we've ever seen him be, based on the challenge he'd be up against.

                    Mikey needs to go back to 135. I don't think a win over Pacquiao for any of the top 10 would be seen as a great win. Not anymore. He sure doesn't stand a chance against Crawford.

                      Make it.

                      I don't see any way Mikey can win against Bud but as a fan of both I say make it. It's amazing to me that people who claim to boxing smart or boxing fans immediately start trolling or thrashing when a fight is proposed like they have some special knowledge no one else has. Truth is they know Jack. People who truly know boxing and love it want the best fighters to fight one another period. People who disparage Mikey's "effort" vs Spence are wrong. It wasn't about effort it was about a bigger , better , faster fighter having his way. Mikey would be better served at 140 but the fact that he is willing to go against the best at welter tells you all you need to know about him. Man is a warrior period.
