Originally posted by WBC WBA IBF View PostThat's faulty logic though, because you could just as easily say that if Linares had no problem crossing networks, than Lomachenko should have no problem crossing networks.
Mikey Garcia has a lot more leverage than Linares did. Mikey Garcia is being paid a lot more than Linares was. Mikey is undefeated and unified champion. Linares had one belt and several losses on his record. Mikey is a major headlining A-side for Showtime now. Linares was struggling to get HBO dates as HBO's budget was evaporating.
ESPN pays more than HBO, but Showtime pays more than ESPN. Can't blame Mikey for the fight not happening if TR takes the position that everything must be 100% TR's way. Why would Mikey agree to that? That'd be like blaming Lomachenko if Mikey's position was that everything must be PBC's way.

He definitely isnt...if he decides to fight spence. That mismatch can potentially ruin the best fight in boxing..Loma vs Mikey. Let Spence fight Crawford
