    Honestly, as a Mikey fan this is dissapointing

    He should have cleaned out 135 before moving up...

    His IBF mando is a weak fight...

    He's not scared, just making dumb bonehead choices

    He shoulda targeted Easter & fight Loma/Linares winner... Then move up

    I think he may target Danny Garcia fight

    Why is anyone surprised? He has called out everyone under the sun but already finds a reason not to fight. He didn't go to 140 because he did not want to fight Crawford. Now he talks about fighting Crawford at 147. Gee Mikey you could have gone to 140 if you really wanted to fight him.

    I don't think either are scared of each other

    I believe Mikey believes that Bob Arum won't make the fight. At all

    I thought Hearn would maneuver Campbell towards picking up that belt once mikey left the division, still wouldn’t be suprised if he somehow makes it Campbell vs Crolla for vacant title.

    The Baranchyk fight isnt too bad. Beast is crazy and will throw haymakers all night. However, I see Mikey being far too skilled and accurate for Beast. Mikey by KO

    Good for Mikey. I want to see him fight at 147 soon. Loma vs Mikey is a great fight but too much risk with no financial reward. Both of them were talking about this fight as a potential PPV fight and its not atm.

    Bring on Garcia vs Garcia and then Mikey vs Spence. I'm down for that

    Loma will come up to 140 soon too

    Robert Easter is a bum and Linares is overrated beyond belief.

    140 is a much better division

    Lipinets is better than Easter and Linares.

    I like that fight !
    Mikey vs Beast is a fan friendly fight that will end with a highlight reel KO, whats not to like ?

    Mikey should fight Beast then Rougarou.
    After that he should target the bigger names at 147

    He already said he won’t fight Linares if Linares fights Loma. And he and his brother are both saying any Loma fight is three years away.
