    Well for both guys its a career defining fight against a top Elite p4p boxer & most likely HOF...

    Both have good/very good wins, but this is a career defining W

    Mikey is quite the buisness man some even say diva ish

    He needs to say the hell with trying to play hard ball over a little money, a career defining win over Loma would do wonders for his career...

    Neither guy is SCARED, but there are network issues here

    Loma is basically exclusively Espn, & while Mikey says he is a free agent he has been loyal to Showtime

    Sometimes $$$ is not everything. Not like he will be making chump change. But PBC/AL have paid him comfortably... He made 1.5 for AB, a Mil against Lipinets. A career defining win does wonders for a careeer, makes u a bigger star which = more money

    Sadly, I have my doubts it gets made

    Maybe best bet is a joint PPV with Espn/Showtime

    totally agree. Lomo will probably agree right away. Arum/Mikey look like they will be divas about this.

    Don't see it happening. Mikey has the better resume and can make more money fighting other guys since Loma is far from being draw.

    Mikey could easily beat Easter and unify with Loma later or he could stay at 140 and pickup another title since 140 like 135 are both very weak divisions and make easy money beating the guys Crawford did.

    Absolutely a win over Lomo would do wonders for his career and in any case they could do a rematch depending on how it went

    I reckon it’s a 50/50 fight as Mikey has skill and greater power than Linares,that said I’d like to know why you think Mikey has the better resume as Mikey was hoping for the Linares fight also,I’ll I can think of his he has a win over Salido.

    His. Wins over Salido, Broner, Martinez, and Zlaticanin easily put his resume above Loma for now.

    Loma only has two good wins, which are Linares and Roman Martinez, who was shot.

    A past prime Salido was able to outbox Loma despite getting handled for most of the fight against Garcia and being easily handled in his prime by Gamboa and Cristobal Cruz.

    Broner crushed DeMarco. the same Antonio DeMarco that completely crushed Linares and Miguel Roman.

    Roman Martinez was easily stopped by Mikey, but was able to beat Salido afterwards, but foolishly took a rematch against Salido and became damaged goods for his match against Loma and hasn't fought since.

    Zlaticanin got completely crushed by Garcia, but Zlatican was able to outbox Burns, who schooled an undefeated Roman Martinez.

    Loma takes Mikey to school. Might even make him quit.

    Broner is a duffer and just about let’s you down every time,I’m betting you had Rigo breaking Lomos jaw right?
