    One thing you have to like about Lomachenko

    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.

    I criticize Loma but he ducks nobody and has a warrior mindset. I did not think he would beat Rigondeaux, he only took that fight because all of the haters like myself wanted him to and he silenced us. I just don't like his excuses after the Lopez fight.
