Mikey Garcia Was Concerned Omar Figueroa Wouldn't Make 140
Sergey Lipinets wasn’t the only opponent Mike Garcia considered remaining at 140 pounds to fight next. The undefeated three-division champion also thought about boxing Omar Figueroa in a junior welterweight bout. The undefeated Figueroa is a fan-friendly, all-action fighter coming off an impressive third-round knockout of Robert Guerrero, but ultimately didn’t offer Garcia the opportunity Lipinets does to become a world champion in a fourth weight class.
