I'd nearly certainly take Linares to beat Flanagan, but I'd stake my house on Garcia seriously knocking out Linares.

Although admittedly I'm a fvcking huge Garcia fanboy. I genuinely think he'd be consensus P4P top 3 if he didn't mess up his career by being inactive for so long.

Linares has taken it up another level again. He got better between Mitchell and Crolla 1 and better between the two Crolla fights. So much better that the last fight wasn't even exciting or competitive.

You'd have to favour him over Flanagan. Maybe we don't know what he can and can't do yet. Hopefully it'd be a really good fight but I'm sure Linares will be looking for Garcia.

How to you think he'd do against opponents who give good movement?

I've always believed that Mitchell was more talented than Crolla. That said, Crolla was fitter, more gutsy and probably a little less fragile than Mitchell. I do believe that Mitchell was somewhat of a wasted talent though.

I have a feeling Lomachenko beats Garcia. I think the latter would really struggle with the angles Lomachenko delivers.

Garcia v Lomachenko is going to be the biggest fight in 2018.

Yeah, no doubt Garcia v Lomachenko would be an epic fight, I honestly wouldn't want to pick a winner.

Same as Crolla. I'd love him to beat Linares but I doubt he would. Linares just too good for both of them.

I'd love to see Terry have a go.
There'd be no shame in losing to Linares, the Manchester public has seen twice now just how good Linares is.
And if Flanagan were to lose then the Crolla fight becomes viable again.
Money fights await win or lose.
Seems a no brainer for W@rren and Co to get this fight made if at all possible...

according to W@rren on IFL today, offered was made to Linares and Linares camp turned the fight down due to not wanting to fight a southpaw...

I other words fast Eddies paying more to fight Campbell. Easier fight and more money! No brainer.

I think Flanagan could outwork him. I thought Linares got lazy against Campbell in the middle rounds.

You've got to favour Linares but I make it a 60/40 fight.

If Linares gets lazy Turbo can take full advantage.
