    For the record the scorecards were ****ing ridiculous, I thought my 118-110 score was a stretch, it could have easily been 120-108.

    I gave Broner 2 rounds but truth be told they could easily have gone to Garcia.

    "Safety first"? lol

    There's nothing "safety first" about a guy with a 80+% KO rate. The worst thing you can possibly say about Mikey is that he fights smart when he's hurt and he's only done that twice.

    See what I mean about you being hyperbolic.

    i disagree. take this fight for example, mikey walked broner down when he felt not enough punches were being exchanged, and was schooling him. hes no potshotter.

    Not once was he at risk of being countered badly enough by Broner attempting that approach, he utilized it because he knows when Broner's opponents let their hand go, he freezes, the rest of his KO's because he capitalizes on his opponents mistakes, he's basically Crawford or Mayweather with KO power.

    No way, the opposite. After Crawford beats Indongo he's cleaned out an already thin 140. Barthelemy would be pointless, no more worthwhile than Easter, Verdejo, Flanagan, Beltran. So if Mikey can get Crawford, great go for him. But if not there's no reason not to focus on 135. Linares to see who's lightweight boss, then Loma would be the ultimate challenge. And getting Crawford next would make subsequently going down for Linares or Loma unlikely, win or lose.

    Not arguing with you, but he was still safety first throughout, and the moment things started to shift.

    Not all Mexican fighters are going to emulate JCC or Morales. We all need to get over that.

    Safety first? He's the type of fighter who will always attempt for the KO, today was no exception with all the punches he threw.

    Imo Mikey needs about two more fights to adjust to JWW.

    If it happens it happens, he lets the KO's come naturally, stop trying to paint him as ****ing Beterbiev.:lol: He's an insanely accurate counter puncher, who rarely takes risks.

    Mikey looked even bigger than Broner.
