If Garcia and Linares don’t fight soon, Garcia will move up and the fight won’t ever be made.
He beat up Broner for a reason and needs to stay 140. Love Linares talent and respect every step in the ring but he's a door prize in the mind of Arum. Garcia bigger fresher sharper. Who wants to collect trinkets in a division you've already left? weight is going to catch up to Garcia also, all this Crawford talk :-X.
With Crawford moving to 147 there's not much at 140 for Garcia. 135 at least has Linares and should Loma get past Rigo then that fight would be a natural.Quote:

Make Garcia vs Figuerora for now, I'll watch ;DQuote:

If Linares/ Flanagan and Garcia/ Easter come off then a unification between the winners has to happen. Loma was already talking Flanagan at 135 in November last year so 135 won't be too far off.Quote:

Garcia stops Linares who’s had an easy ride beating overrated British fighters. He’s made nice money over here but his trip back to America won’t be so kind and he’s getting a reality check
So what!Quote:

Linares last fight will probably be against Garcia.
Never said I had a problem with it :confused: I’m just saying Garcia is a huge step up from the guys he’s been fighting (or has ever fought)Quote:

Garcia is a special fighter and Linares has been through some memorable wars.Quote:

Sad watching GB become exactly like DK was and TR is, killing fights with 3 fight options. Here’s a thought, treat fighters fairly and they’ll stick with you.
Congratulations @Master , you've managed to keep up your record of posting his name at least once every day for the last 2 years! #onemancrusadetokeephissecretmancrushrelevantQuote:

Ps. shouldn't it be a capital "C" in Cunt? ;D;D;D

Doesnt Garcia have no chance of fighting Crawford, Loma or any other Top Rank fighter because of his contractual dispute with Arum?
Shame because Garcia v Crawford would be one hell of a fight. 2 of my favorite fighters at the moment with Garcia definitely in my top 10 fav fighters of all time. 140 is a bit weak at the moment so Id prefer to see him at 136. Outside Easter, Flanagan and Linares there are still other good fights with Davis or Verdejo although pretty sure Garcia flattens all of them. Im not sure hes big enough for 147 although there are plenty of top fighters there I reckon he'd school.
Garcia needs to get a move on and get a fight quick.
For some reason and of all fighting champs "easy ride" and Linares just doesn't roll off the tongue. Not every guy can have their 'overrated' British opponents imported to some Arena named after our mobile carriers in the States for them :-X.Quote:

Have to appreciate a meteoric return after time out and the man has many options. I'd like to see him more centered and for promotion to stop playing the shuffling deck with 4,5 rotating door weight divisions. It's like a Waffle house menu for Garcia and they need to eat already! Just went full Teddy.
