    I'd forgotten about him too. What a dick. There's no way he'd ever make up the money he lost by just not fighting for Arum until his contract ran out. Obviously there's more to it than him simply claiming Top Rank making him wealthy* in his early twenties isn't good enough. Probably motivation, too much too soon. Like Gamboa or Chavez Junior.

    *A quick google shows me he made 220k for beating Salido for the title. That seems a decent payday for a challenger at that weight against a champion that the TV people don't care about. So he had three bigger paydays after that while looking promising and then decided he was too grand to fulfil his contractual obligations. Idiot.

    Mikey Garcia was one of my favorite fighters.

    Sadly, he's one of many talented boxers who have had their careers ruined by the greedy old snake Bob Arum.

    Garcia should have settled sooner.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
