    The dude started at 126

    He looked flabby at 147 & 140

    The reason Floyd and Pac were able to beat bigger guys at 147 is they were ATGs, with Elite speed & skill

    Mikey is great at 126-135, but it is true he is a rather basic athlete

    Prograis is a guy who can KO dudes up to 147 no problem

    Taylor is an elite level athlete

    Both guys will win belts at 147

    And are tough style matchups for Mikey

    135 is his best bet...

    Win a belt again & look to unify with Loma

    He'll probably go back to cherry picking Lipinets/Easter/Zlaticanin level guys and avoiding the likes of Lomachenko, Taylor, Prograis

    None of those 140 guys are with Haymon and the division is quite good.
    Mikey will stay clear of it and fight the winner of Garcia-Granados probably.

    Prograis, Taylor, Lomachenko, Mikey all need to fight each other. These are the fights to make in these divisions.
