    Pretty sure I remember people saying Arum was keeping Loma away from Walters as well.

    If they dont fight I bet the house someone will claim " not enough money"

    Both are free to fight on any network. Except I dont see Top Rank and HBO working together while Peter Nelson is there.
    But this fight can happen on SHO , SHO PPV, Top Rank PPV , whatever

    But if they sell 150K PPV, × 60$ the revenue will be 9M. 2-3 M gate ? ( i dont really know about that one)

    Both teams will split probably something like 6M

    Do you think Mikey will accept 3M ?
    What was his highest purse ?

    A college degree? He said he was studying law enforcement during his long layoff. He might have a degree.

    In addition to his size (frame/weight), his style is not suitable for moving up. He needs the range as range is an important element in his game, he is tool old to evolve & adjust (eventually he has to cherry pick if he moves to 135) like Mayweather did. Its best for him to fight anybody & everybody at 126 (or 130 if 126 is no longer possible) the move to 130 was mainly influenced by Walters & a desire to rematch Salido at top of 130 then

    Pacman is not Vasyl, Pacman is a unique assault specialist (promoted, handled & milked perfectly by the genius of boxing). With Pacman you just needed HGH/PEDs & Pacman spirit to move up to 154.

    Vasyl game is precision, accuracy & 3d timing. You start adding extra long reach/power (bigger guys) & it will greatly reduce his ability to preform properly. He is programmed for 126, Pacman is geared not programmed...

    Mikey is right. Bob doesnt want to put Loma in the ring with him because if he does then thats going to hurt Mikeys future earnings when he gets beat.

    Sam Langford was 5' 6 1/2' and fought heavyweights.
    Mark Breland waa 6'3' and fought as a welterweight.
    Lomo is listed as 5'7'...so he should be fighting HW's?

    Height isn't the only measure of how "big" a man is. It depends on his frame, bone structure.
    Lomo could possibly get up to 147 but he'd look like James "Man Boobs" Toney at any higher weight.
    He doesn't look like he could pack on more than what's needed to effectively fight above 140.
