    I do hope this rumored Australian opponent for 2019 isn't true.. Come on Bob! Lovely place to visit but you'll have him on Neighbours next.. That's a huge step down in class of opposition! Pointless...

    After the 'Sniper' if it's not Mikey Garcia, I'm not interested. Huge Lomachenko fan, it'll take someone special to beat him. Let's test him against special fighters.

    Too much to ask?

    Never heard of him, but see he got stopped by Jack As_s.
    Loma hasn't fought a guy this level since his very fist fight, so I don't believe this is true until there's some confirmation.

    I wouldn't go that far

    I'd take a Berchelt, Davis, Easter or even a Campbell fight no problem but MacKenzie is a bit of a joke fight for me! Lets hope it's just a rumor..

    Campbell fight doesn't interest me, and I don't see the other two facing him just now. Tank has gone AWOL. Having beat a bigger, and skilled guy in Linares by stoppage I want to see Lomachenko fight the best.

    The Garcia fight has been talked about to death, make it happen. It's not that those other names, Tank and Berchelt are poor but Lomachenko moved up as those fights weren't happening. We see how 147 has stagnated waiting on the best fighting each other. Garcia should not be getting opportunity to bypass Loma for Spence, it may happen but it shouldn't. Loma-Garcia is easily a top 3 fight I want, and it should happen.

    Lomachenko-Campbell doesn't get me excited, at all. And Loma is 30, he may have 3-4 years left at this level or he may have 1-2, I want to see him fight the best before he's post peak.

    Can you email this to Mikey then because he doesn't seem too interested right now (which is odd considering many view it as the biggest fight in boxing..) or am i wrong?

    I'll give him a call, be quicker.

    I'd like to think he wants the fight but since Mikey returned from his hiatus, I'm unable to compute WTF Mikey wants, other than cash & lots of it.

    Screw what Mikey wants, I want that fight. And so does the Boxing world, both at their peak IMO.

    Fielding fight I am slightly intrigued by as we haven't seen a 168 Canelo & Rocky is quite a big SMW...

    I agree 100%. The reason Mikey calls out Spence without any action is just a smoke
    screen for the fact he doesn't want the Loma fight. Loma would beat Mikey 117-111 on legit
    cards and team MG know it. The fights at 130 won't happen as they shouldn't and unless Mikey
    machos up to face Loma, there's nothing else for Loma to do. The 2 of them have all the belts at
    135.

    Lol imagine if this fight actually happened. Biggest mismatch of all time.
