Comments Thread For: Robert Garcia on Mikey Chasing Pacquiao Fight: He Could Be Wasting His Time

[Coqqos]

Maybe he's losing his hunger and he can only get up for the big fights. Stevenson and navarrete have started recently, compared to Garcia they're still hungry

Of the clown looser of Adrian Broner got Pacman, why not Mikey? But he does news to fight soon!

One thing I have noticed listening to Robert's interviews regarding Mikey, he hardly ever knows what is going on. Mikey doesn't let much out to him or anyone else. Dude is a straight businessman and handles his stuff on his own.

If he can't get Pacquiao, a Prograis fight at 140 would be great or if he wants to stay at 147, how about a fight against Thurman? Both need to get a solid win to get back in the mix and that would be a nice fight. Mikey fought the worst possible fighter he would fight at WW in Spence, but a fight against Thurman should be more competitive. Mikey showed his power was still a factor at that weight against Vargas and more fights at WW, the more comfortable he will get there.

Mikey is a free agent. PBC is really looking for "in house" fights. He is on the outside looking in. There is a round robin going on, and he isn't in it.

Perfectly said and he isn't getting any younger.



He doesn't deserve a Pacquiao fight at the moment.

Mikey, Bud and Spence all want Pacquiao

Mikey Garcia vs. Regis Prograis! Make That Happen ASAP!

Outstanding fights! No belts required, and they still sell!

I used to be a massive fan of Miguel Garcia, but things have really gone south for him lately. Chasing a Pacquiao fight or only fighting when "big name opponents" are willing to take him on is beyond asinine. You are not a big name, lost to the only truly big named fighter you fought, you are on nobodies radar at 147, and age is not on your side.

Robert Garcia is a good brother for trying to make Mikey see things the way they are. The guy seems a bit delusional at this point with that Manny fight.

Same why I feel about Mikey. Great guy,extremely talented fighter but a bit delusional about where he feels he stands in the fight game. He seems hell bent on solidifying himself as a 147lb champ but he just doesn't have the size. I'm not sure he can get back down to 135,met him and hes a pretty stocky dude,but he most definitely can get to 140lb where their are pretty big fights for him,winnable at that. Robert seems to understand that but you can tell Mikey isnt keeping anyone there in the loop.

We live in strange times. It has to be hard for even a competitive guy like Pac to know he'll make less money in a fight against a champion like Spence or Thurman than some farce against McGregor or even a Youtube star with some massive social media following. Pac could fall out of bed tomorrow and box one of the Paul brothers or KSI and it would do well over 1.5 million PPVs. McGregor, probably over 3 million. Two no risk "fights", or more accurately, shows, for giant money. Crazy.

Great post. It's how I see it too. Green K.
