Loma is the smaller fighter
Less reach. Less power.
This means that he will have to execute the Hummingbird Style to perfection, lest he gets caught with a shot
This means that you will probably see Lomachenko in rare form. The quickest that we have seen him, because the risk is high with Linares
No mistake in Linares' footwork will go unpunished. This one may end in a liver shot knockout...
The fight pretty much went the way I expected:
- Loma got caught👍
- Loma ended the fight with a liver shot👍
Do I get extra points for these LOL
... :) ... I actually could not "foresee" such an outcome!... :)
I actually think Linares can last the whole 12, just because he is a durable guy and Loma isn’t a power puncher, he can certainly overwhelm Linares with his intensity but i wouldn’t be surprised if Linares doesn’t fold.
... This was exactly what I thought before the fight... :)

Linares has lost before, and come back stronger - I think he can deal with adversity.
I don't know if he can last 12 rounds without cuts being a factor.
Agreed, losing sometimes can help you deal with adversity later on in your career.
