His fights that are considered lower tier opponents are still decent fighters all throughout his resume.
Nakatani gave Lopez a rough 12 rounds and he also KO’ed the murderer/child killing criminal Verdejo in his last fight.
Usually fighters coming off of losses fight:
1. Other fighters coming off a loss
2. A fighter who no one in their right mind thinks will be stylistically tough at all
3. An old, past prime fighter
But Lomachenko is fighting Nakatani who is:
1. 19-1, won his last fight vs a profile opponent
2. Nakatani IS and has potential to be stylistically tough for Lomachenko
3. Younger than Lomachenko
Gotta hand it to Lomachenko, he could have asked for a weak opponent. For example like what Haney has been fighting. Lomachenko could have asked Arum for Gamboa or Burgos but instead he’s taking on a top 10 LW.
