To the surprise of some, the fight between Russell Jr. and Lomachenko is actually happening June 21. With that in mind, who do you think will win the fight?
Outside of the majority of his opponents; I thought that Gary Russell Jr gave Vasyl Lomachenko one of his most competitive fights of his career; Given how still green he was and given Lomachenko's amateur pedigree. He won several rounds against the "Matrix".
Ha,,,, yes not a good call on my part though russell was more competitive than most vs loma.
true and the outcome of a match between Russell and Davis is no foregone conclusion.
LMAO. This forum had the fight 50/50 and now russell is a bum just like walters and rigo. Who has lomo beat derp derp I'm a retarded racist boxing fan.
same thing will happen to davis when lomachenko outclasses him. these same fools who like to discredit a highly skilled fighter like loma are the same ones who claim to love only fighters who are highly skilled always yapping about how skills pay bills blah blah blah. turns out it they are full of crap and you see them showing their true colors lol.
Yeah, they only like skilled and slick boxers but suck off Charlos, Davis and even Wilder but hate on Loma & Usyk lol.
The Walters threads were similar. So many picked Rigo too. They’ve changed now to dismissing whoever he fights with “wait until he fights someone good” even though the same idiots are in these threads being wrong every time and hyping the other guy up. same thing will happen to davis when lomachenko outclasses him. these same fools who like to discredit a highly skilled fighter like loma are the same ones who claim to love only fighters who are highly skilled always yapping about how skills pay bills blah blah blah. turns out it they are full of crap and you see them showing their true colors lol.
yep and Rigo and Linares
It's funny how they suddenly change their thoughts AFTER the fight.
he has an excellent resume, I don't even know how anyone can attempt to discredit him.
Agreed. I can’t understand some of the Loma hate.
- -Hard to believe Rigormortis had any supporters, but die Garda die hard.
Loma turned pro boxing on its noggin by eschewing traditional pro development to go straight to the top.
Hope he gets out after a couple of years as there is always payback for going against the grain.

see how people thought it was 50/50 before the fight!!! MANY people tipped Russell Jr to win.
Lomachenko has a great resume.
A lot of people said Walters would beat him as well. His resume is quality only someone with an agenda would disagree.
Gary Russell training... hands looking fast as hell

It'll be interesting to see which guy looks faster when they fight.
Can't wait for this fight... both guys are super fast, should be good... how often do you see a really fast technical white fighter vs a really fast technical black guy?
Russell hasn't really faced anyone elite, and neither has Loma so I guess based on that it's pretty even, Loma did beat a decent fighter in Ramirez however, who I rate above anyone of Russells wins.
1 win against a ranked fighter and a lose to a past prime, does not constitute a better resume with a man with 25+ pro fights.
No disrespect toward the man's earlier accomplishments but Russell has more pro experience no matter the level of competition. 25+ always will look greater than 2....
