Who did Linares miss out on? Who did he duck? Because LW at the time was weak as ****. And Mikey had an opportunity to fight Linares and Loma, but walked away This content is protected
Uchiyama was doing in the lower weights, what GGG was doing at MW. Linares was poised to fight him but lost to Salgado. He ducked every rematch. Else he would have gotten the opportunity.
So he should have aspirations... He won't go near the top bunch though. Has 3+ years of fundamental improvements which have to be made. Teofimo is much more talented and advanced for his age. He's a pretty tough kid, wasn't pushed back once and the knockdown bounced off him. I see Garcia getting stuck in his one-dimensional stride though, bit like Broner. Some things in boxing come to fighters and sometimes they never come. Time will tell.
