2681575, Seriously, who can stop Vasyl Lomachenko?
Posted by Case_One, Tue Dec-11-18 02:37 PM
I've only seen a few of his last fights and this guy is a tactical, strategic, machine. I don't know who can stop him.

2681590, He was all those things...before moving up and injuring his shoulder

1 brilliant round was enough to win Saturday
...but I don't see him being as successful going forward without a right hook...
If I'm Mikey Garcia, I'd be looking to set that up ASAP, before I vacate the division.
Love Loma, but Saturday raised some serious concerns IMO
|
2681591, Lol so you think his shoulder is done based on one fight back?

Thats cute.

2681593, One could argue the right hook is his best punch

I didn't think Despacito was anything special
He basically stood in front of Loma for 12 rounds...and was landing on Loma
A 100% Loma would have dismantled that dude in a few rounds
But you might want to re-read my reply
Now would be the time to fight him...because once he is back to 100%, he'll be unbeatable again

2681630, Despacito, eh?

2681622, Jorge Linares landed a perfect punch though, lucky if anything.

2681626, Loma will not be successful above 135
Posted by hip bopper, Tue Dec-11-18 11:19 PM
Those guys at 140 and particularly at 147 will all beat Loma.
Loma should just stay at 135 and take on everyone there and the classes below him.

2681631, Basically this
Posted by Hitokiri, Tue Dec-11-18 11:51 PM
The fight with Pedraza was the worst I've seen him look. He was good, but he's been round 11 every other time I've seen him. But he's too small to take on anyone above 140.

Other than the obligatory, there is always somebody out there that has your number. Lomancenko does not seem to have a lot of flaws. It's just telling how he performed against other guys that had similar reputations as guys nobody wanted to fight. He made them quit. Fights were totally one sided. We are witnessing greatness and it will take a much larger man to give him problems. I favor him over Mike Garcia but I still want to see the fight.

2681739, That's a good breakdown.

I'm more of a casual streaky boxing fan. Like I will get the boxing bug and watch a lot of fights (stars and up-and-coming), but then fall off if the person is not a real headliner. So I'm trying to see if this cat is going to be something special over a longer period of time.
