Comments Thread For: Davis, Haney, Lomachenko: Who is in Most Danger?

[crimsonfalcon07]

Bizarre these pundits keep saying Lopez took away Loma's offense with his jab, as if having an injured shoulder and choosing not to throw for seven rounds had nothing to do with it. I always felt that the injury had more to do with Lopez's victory than anything Lopez did differently than everyone else, and what happened to him at the gloves of Kambosos seems to validate that the pundits overrated him. Time will tell, as always, assuming these guys can stop ducking each other. I don't think Kambosos, Haney, or Loma will be doing much ducking though.

So friggin funny how an author gives a list of least to best or hardest to easiest or whatever and we all go bananas arguing and disagreeing about it. These guys can play us like a Stradivarius if they want.

I don't see anyone going bananas or hardly even people arguing. We are just giving our own opinions as people do on forums.

What are we supposed to do? Get on our knees and suck off Cliff Rold like he's some infallible god?

Ok, let’s be real Haney can box superbly but can’t hurt a fly landing in his hand. Lomenchenko very decorated but let’s be real he’s already in a career had that assss taped twice with under 20 fights. Mr. Gervonta Tank Davis on the other hand can have problems with a boxer or a person can out work him now we get into the but; he is a seek and destroy type of fighter with ko power in both hands slick and has the attitude to go with his skill set, Tyson, Floyd, and Whitaker all rolled in one, end of the story!

Loma taking challenges. Tank looking like a mix of Floyd/Tyson and sweet pea against cab drivers.

All of these fights feature top 10 LWs fighting each other. As did Lopez-Kambosos last weekend. That's four LW fights in 3 weeks all featuring top 10 guys fighting each other. That's gotta be a record for any division.

Lomachenko is always in the most danger to me in this division. I see it as he is fighting at his top weight class. And as good as he is, there is zero room for error for him. He cannot KO someone in this grouping with one punch. He needs to outpoint everyone, or shoot for the KO by volume. The vast majority of opponents he faces can KO or at least really hurt him, with natural size usually being in their corner to begin with. I just feel at this point and time, Lomachenko is fighting with a renewed urgency. He has to rebuild his legacy. He has 2 losses on his record, including one massive upset against a guy who got dropped and decisioned in his very next fight. Loma needs quality wins, or he gets the "good, but never as great as his reputation said he was" career treatment.

I see the other two fights the same: Haney and Davis win with any kind of focused effort. They are just better and in their prime against their respective opponents. Not that Diaz or Cruz getting victories will be Earth shattering. They are both true pros and will come to win, so a lack of effort on the part of the favorites will give them the opening each needs to score those wins. It is just unfathomable to me that Haney and Davis would not come loaded to end these fights with extreme prejudice considering the stakes.

Well said. His style doesnt play well for him, and his size, moving up in weight. He was a stud at Feather and Super Feather, but at 135 there are guys who can use their reach, size, and strength to negate his speed and timing. Forcing him to be perfect for so much of the fight, whereas they don't need to be.

May be unlikely don’t get me wrong, but how crazy would it be for loma to win, Bob make a substantial offer to George and loma beats him, I’m sure Lopez would be suck then would he then beg for rematch? If I was Teo Jr I’d stay away from josh Taylor at 140.

I see Bumachenko getting sent to the hospital again.

Aight, but if Loma beats Commey convincingly, as he should, then I don't wanna see any downplaying from you. None of that "He was always a bum doe" nonsense.

With all that skill, it would be great if Davis would actually fight the level of competition Tyson, Floyd, and Whitaker fought - at least ONE time. Its a shame he continues to fight b-level no-hopers in ppv mismatches to protect that 0. Its not like he is in the early stages of his career where fighting cans is the norm.

Come on people, Tank don’t make the dam decisions as to whom he fights, the kid from B’more anyone can get some! He doesn’t pick and choose have any of the people on here fought professionally; well I have in two of Gervonta’s classes as a matter of fact.

Pay me as a fighter to fight cab drivers then, at the end of the day when your speech isn’t the same and you can’t move as quickly as others or what you use to and people whom have never been hit or In A gym to spar talking about you, ****k every one Get paid 1st! Then take risk for legacy, how about that for you asssss super fan!

Davis will never be in a fight he has a chance of losing.. we gonna get more Cruz’s, more smaller guys having to move up and secondary champs..So sad Davis is wasting his prime yrs after all these yrs he still haven’t up his competition smh. He always bring up the big names then go fight the nobody’s or smalller guys
