Showtime fight night- Mikey vs Easter Jr.

[Ron Swanson]

El Bump. Card kicks off Saturday night. Weigh in today had Garcia staring holes through a rowdy in your face Easter Jr. Surprised a solid title unification has gone under the radar. On paper with Easters style and frame it might..emphasis might..turn into some solid give and take action but it's pretty clear Easter Jr isn't fighting his frame and gives up his reach and lays in. We'll see.

Mikey has gone full in talking up Spence almost to the point of stfu and slow your roll already . Slight chance he's looking beyond a guy he calls the second best fighter in the division and ignoring Loma save for wanting to "race him" to a main event ppv. To me just pretending Loma doesn't exist regardless of promotion blender is very disappointing and Spence feels like he's inviting a sacrificial shortcut. Feels like a bad trend. Luis Ortiz returns against goliath Razvan Cojanu and unless Wilder took his soul he should chop him down nicely.

Mikey has been talking about Loma. I can grab you some interviews with him talking about Loma but basically it’s the same as always “It won’t happen because I won’t agree to fighting on under the Top Rank label”

Bob has been quite clear he won’t make that fight so what is Mikey supposed to do?

I'd echo Master, thanks my Google works . But seriously..who else gets that pass? I'm big on a guy moving to clean his own house out before he anoints himself ready to walk into someone else's. Loma and some gripe he cannot get major tests. Mikey lost massive time sitting out and obviously thinks he deserves the mega fights...so he should act like it. He's going to go to the well one too many times with this rotating division stuff and the roofs going to fall in on him.

I don’t know why Loma gets a pass on this. Mikey has said he wants the fight. Arum said no. Are you suggesting Mikey is getting a pass? Mikey isn’t the one that won’t do it. Just google who he wants to fight. He’s not looking at Spence because he thinks it makes more money for him or is easier. He says those are both Loma. He’s looking at Spence because he can’t fight Loma

To quote Arum on this matchup “We absolutely will not negotiate with Garcia”
