Top Rank's DuBoef scoffed at the idea Garcia is willing to take the toughest fights.
“I am sick and tired of people filling you guys with a bunch of bullsh*t,” duBoef said, “and telling you that they wanna fight the greatest fighters out there and they’re available. That is complete nonsense. Mikey Garcia turned down [Yuriorkis] Gamboa, which would’ve made him something.
So don’t tell me he’s striving to fight the best out there. He then came and said, ‘Oh, I wanna fight Pacquiao,’ after a two-year layoff. ‘I wanna fight Crawford. I wanna fight Lomachenko.’ Great. We’re here. His f***ing trainer shows up to say, ‘Hey, we wanna talk about it.’ And then he goes off and makes a Broner fight. Stop the nonsense. Stop it.
In a return to the still-present animosity, Top Rank President Todd duBoef claimed on a Monday conference call with reporters that unbeaten lightweight champion Garcia is not “a big name,” even after his convincing unanimous-decision victory over former four-division world champion Adrien Broner Saturday in a Showtime-televised main event at New York’s Barclays Center.
