    Comments Thread For: Robert Garcia: Pacquiao Fight Only One We Want For Mikey At Welterweight

    Mikey Garcia performed much better in his second welterweight fight than in his debut at the 147-pound limit. Almost a year after Errol Spence Jr. dominated him in their 12-round IBF title fight, Garcia dropped former WBO champ Jessie Vargas in the fifth round and beat him by unanimous decision in another 12-rounder. Garcia's success against Vargas on February 29 in Frisco, Texas, encouraged Garcia to continue competing at welterweight.

    Who benefits from this waste of time fight? I wonder how many fighters would be calling out to fight other fighters if the purses were winner take all?

      weak axx... so it's just a money grab fight then.

      will mikey and his father stick to what they said before about how if mikey doesnt stop manny within 9 rounds then dont pay them. are they still sticking to this plan? lol.

        I think Mimey should fight Porter and if he can beat him then possibly throw his name in the hat for a shot at 147. Porter makes a good measuring stick for anybody at 147 IMO

          Yes, and there we have the truth of the matter! Garcia isn't fighting any other top 147ers, just looking for another money grab. Forget that "9 rounds or less"l as well hahaha, just more meaningless bull.

            Mikey's last fight was a lopsided decision loss to Spence OVER A YEAR AGO.

            But I'm supposed to get hyped for him vs Manny?

              He's not deserving of Porter. Porter is a top dog. He needs to work himself up the food chain for that shot.

                Mikey fan here, and he gets DESTROYED by Porter. Stylistically, he's the worst matchup of any welterweight for Mikey

                  Who benefits?! Everyone. Most importantly.... the fans! That would be a great fight. Both fighters get paid, that fight sells well. And as the article states, it's likely the only shot Mikey has at a welterweight belt

                    This proves you don’t know quality. Mikey Garcia did something few have done. The Spence fight was expected. To fight a champ at 140 to 135 then up to 147. Mikey vs Manny would be a heck of a fight.
