    Campbell isn't rated, will probably be Chaniev or Tatli against Commey i'd have thought

    Luke is in line for the WBC belt. In fact the WBC is the only org that ranks Luke.

    Garcia is done at 135, clear as day.
    Loma's best options now are Machado, Berchelt and Campbell

    Well, remember that 5 months ago, Sanchez and GGG were going after Saunders and that "Canelo wasn't on their radar anymore"

    if mikey were to beat spence, then yes, the loma fight is never happening. mikey coming at arum as a free agent with the title of p4p #1 fighter in the world... what are the chances arum gives him what he wants for the chance to put his fighter in that much peril?

    Mikey should just STFU and fight Spence.

    Loma is young, crazy, cockstrong. And hes willing to fight anybody. Hes not afraid of a guy like Mikey. Boom the fight should be made, but the greed of Arum and Mikey are holding things up.

    Lomachenko seems far more interested in the fight than Garcia. When they ask Loma about fighting Garcia he looks so anxious that he may as well be chewing bullets.

    Garcia seems dismissive about the fight, relatively speaking.

    y
    you taking this a little sideways. mikey trying to do this is good for the sport.
    nobody said anything about any fighter being afraid of anyone else, so dont be telling on yourself.
    i think if mikey keeps building legacy like hes been doing, he can say whatever he wants, whenever he wants. the man is putting in work, whether this fight goes through or not.

    I'm not personally interested in his extended bum tour and contender tour. But if that floats your boat have at it.

    Campbell now has a better shot at winning a title if Garcia has gone..

    & Loma has a division that's ripe for the taking now.. Not many huge obstacles!

    For some reason I thought Luke Campbell was in the mix title shot wise. I wouldn't mind seeing Campbell vs Commey despite both of them seeming a level or three below Loma, Linares and Mikey.

    Luke is line for the WBC belt.
    If the WBC wasn´t so pro Mexican and so ****ing corrupt, they would soon strip Mikey. The WBC ought to be ordering the mandatory and i doubt they will do so. They have a history of not following through with mandatories.

    Might be up to Hearn to work some magic.

    If Mikey vacates the WBC belt (and I almost expect him to do so) Campbell would become a champion there and fight a Commey/Chaniev winner.

    The prob with that is a unification between those two prob leads to a Lomachenko fight being wasted on them down the line.
