I see a lot of similarities with how he pitty pats with changing rhythms and just overwhelms opponents with the sheer volume of his attack.
But he also sets up harder shots and has better footwork/angles than Calzaghe did.
Yes,,
I have been saying this for a few years
Loma is like Calzaghe but with Superior technique and even better footwork n angles.
If calzaghe wasn’t sloppy and slappy, he would be like loma
Lomachenko is a more physically taxing fighter. I've been critical of boxers quitting against him. I saw last night how draining his style is on his opponents. Calzaghe seemed more annoying than anything else. Like his opponent are thinking, "How the heck am I losing to this guy?"
Mate, nobody is this fackin sport is fackin superior to fackin Joe Calzaghe! Fackin Froch is a fackin cunt and fackin Joe woulda fackin ripped 'is fackin 'ead off!
Please don't use rude language like this - there are many ladies in this forum.
Loma ten levels above, calzaghe never fought any fighter in his prime other then kessler and gets too much arse licking in Britain with his win over C grade overhyped lacy. Calslappys biggest wins were way past prime editions of eubank, Jones Jr, Hopkins.
He was fighting Peter manfredos of the world in his mid thirties in his safety net of the UK. Bum City Central the King gypsy is back he is more skilled then cokezaghe ever was.
Great post

They both swarm opponents with pitty pat punches and movement, at that basic level is where I see the similarity.
Lomachenko is obviously much faster and he weaves hard shots into his combinations more frequently which is way he is stopping guys and making them quit.
good comparison, not sure to say better, but more so a comparable smaller version.... as Calzaghe was a much bigger unit and with bigness comes less agility.
but very similar.
