Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia's Desired Foes For Ring Return Are Slipping Away

[Removed Now]

Mikey Garcia still boxes?

He voluntarily decided to quit the sport for 2.5 years in the middle of his prime.

He inexplicably takes the Spence fight two weight classes up, and doesn't even try on fight night.

Now more layoffs as he's chasing a 40-year old Filipino senator who does boxing part-time.

Waste of talent.

You get it ^^^^^^^^^.

I used to like Mikey too. Damnnn Shame.

Yeah, he clearly doesn’t like boxing. Didn’t he say he wants to be a police officer? Boxing is literally a job for him. He does it because his family probably egged him on about it. I remember he called boxing boring years ago.

I think him at 135 right now would be amazing. With all that young talent down there. Mikey vs Teo, Loma, Tank, Ryan, Haney, Nakatani, Fortuna. All would be interesting matchups. He can start with a low level opponent like Linares to test how he feels making 135 again.

Garcia vs DSG, Porter, Thurman or TC If he plans on staying at 147. Regis Prograis is a good fight south of 147. Not many options for Mikey, pretty sure he's not interested in facing Boots or Ortiz...

140...Taylor, Ramirez, Prograis, Postol, Relikh, etc., these are the guys he should be looking at, Danny Garcia TOPS. He should not be looking at Thurman or Porter. Those fights would be a sparring session for Keith and Porter. Mikey vs DSG would at least be competitive.

Same as Crawford.

Too bad he's got bad blood with Arum. They could book Crawford vs. Garcia: Battle Of Lost Greatness

What TF are you talking about dude, Crawford is one if not the highest paid at welterweight and just demolished a good name in Brook. That's why Arum always crying.

At the end of the day Crawford is 33 not 23 sure we'd all like to see the Spence fight but he's already had a great career as a boxer as it is dude started at 135lbs

I wonder would Prograis fight Mikey @ 147? That would be good, even without belts involved! So would Keith Thurman! If he can't beat Keith Thurman @ 147, then 147 is not for him!

33 yrs old doubt Mikey going back to 140 now I brought up Prograis because he wants to move up eventually and would probably be more willing to fight Mikey at a catch weight.

Mikey vs Crawford....make it happen

[PeepeePoopooMan]

He lost his popularity when he sat out then came back to catch pay days now he’s selling his record for retirement money. No business over 140lb.

Yeah i agree. Honestly he should work his way back up to a big fight. I dont see how he deserves a Pacquiao payday. He definitely lost more than his 0 against spencer. Its like his fans abandoned him

Yeah it was pretty sickening to watch Mikey sit on the shelf all that time from like age 27-29 now he's trying to make up for it with big name fights and it isn't going too well. Dude probably got a year left at this point, if that. He's already been out of the ring for another year.
