    5 pounds makes no difference to his once in a lifetime skills. If he doesn’t look as dominant it’s because of Linares, not because of the weight.

    Mikey is the very definition of a textbook boxer. He's basic as all hell, but he's very good at being basic. And he's slow. Did you see the Broner fight? Some of the punches Mikey was throwing were painfully slow and telegraphed. That's why when they met, Loma was like, "too slow!" Loma will take one or two rounds and then dissect him. Mikey has a puncher's chance, but that's it.

    But he has very good timing and he's calm and methodical. Garcia's chances to win against Loma are definitely better than just a puncher's chance.

    Precisely why Loma beats him easily. Mikey has no wrinkles to his game. He's basic. But very excellent in being basic. That's why Pacquiao smokes him. Because Pacquiao utilizes weird angles and lots of special effects.

    Loma is too small and would get knocked out.

    Loma vs Mikey is a dangerous fight for little Loma. We haven’t seen Loma at 135 and we saw Mikey power legitimately spook Broner at 140!

    If Mikey takes a punch from Loma to throw his own which is much harder, it could be a long night for the matrix

    Lomachenko will box circles around Mikey, that's why Mikey did not take the fight...................Linares will be a good fight for Lomachenko, prepare him for the even bigger Mikey, but Linares is much bigger than Lomachenko also, so was Walters, Lomachenko has so many skills though............
