Mikey said after the fight he willing to go to 147 if it make sense. We all know 147 $$$$$$ makes sense.

Watch, 147 will be in a couple of month better than it has ever been in the last 10 years. Spence.thurman.brook.crawford.danny.vargas.mikey.
Porter.pacquiao.

If Crawford moves up next it will be Jesse Vargas I'll bet since he is TR. Maybe Pac after that.

Ramirez would be much more interesting, but you may be right.

Garcia vs Lomo and Crawford are THE fights at 140. All 3 should be fighting each other.

You mean Lomachenko, dude who's not fought north of 130?

Anyone told you you're a effing idiot lately?

Loma is not fighting at 140, (hasn't even fought at 135) so that is stupid to say. Lomo vs Garcia at 135 is realistic, but not happening due to Lomo's lack of interest and TR not wanting it.
Lomo needs a little bit of criticism due to his next opponent, who is coming off a big loss. Not many want to go there though, since he is perfect.

I suppose they could fight at 135 but not sure Garcia is interested in going back down in weight again considering they're talking a move to 147. Garcia's camp would be wise in trying to bring Lomachenko as far up in weight as possible.

Mikey Garcia has already stated that he could easily go back down to 135 -- Lomachenko vs Garcia would be a blockbuster...Loma coming up 5 pounds

Down the line both will end in the m$ney division 147, yet still tc/mg at 140 would be a blockbuster!

A fight between Mikey Garcia and Terence Crawford seems extremely unlikely to take place in the short-term due to their careers going in different directions. I also feel that the nature of Mikey Garcia’s departure from Top Rank has resulted in a rift between both parties.

Surely Crawfords best move is to now move up to 147 and take on the money fighters...he is ready.

If I was Garcia I would have a couple more fights at 140 to discover whether his power carries, as an in shape broner is not the easiest guy to hurt.
Then and only then he should feel if he is able to compete with the best at 147.

My money's on that we never see this matchup

Hitman Jr's "best move is to now" stay focused on The Indongo.
