Comments Thread For: Vasiliy Lomachenko-George Kambosos Deal Done, Likely For 5/12 In Perth

[GBP4LIFE]

No one is checking for this trash.. Kambosos is simply an avg fighter at best

[Oregonian]

He's not a flash in the pan, he's just not elite.

He beat:
Mickey Bey (American former IBF 135 champ, in the US)
Lee Selby (British former IBF 126 champ, in the UK)
Teofimo Lopez (American reigning unified lineal champ, in the US)

In 3 straight fights as the B-side. He's a world level guy, he's just absolutely a terrible matchup for Haney and not on his level. If Lomachenko hasn't aged out he'll probably beat Kambosos comfortably, but it doesn't mean Kambosos sucks or was a flash in the pan. He just found his level and it's not at the P4P top like Haney or Loma.

This is a great response. Thank you.
I could argue against those three names you listed but you already gave a good response and where you see Kamboso’s level.
If he loses to Loma, what next for him? It’s going to be tough to face the other two guys (Shakur and Tank) at 135 after.

Kamboso is young so he’s got at least 4 maybe 5 in him but against who?

This would have been really nice as the co-main event to Fury-Usyk

Dirty deeds
and they're
done dirt cheap

It's a long way to the top (if you wanna Rock 'N' Roll)

If he loses I think he just becomes a gatekeeper at 135 or 140. A name for guys to beat on their way up like Crawford, Haney, and Tank all beat Gamboa on the way up.

Good call Cypo No way jam doesn’t end up on his face Credit to Loma for beating a middle weight

[tomhawq]

Why in Australia? It's not like Kambosos is Inoue-level drawing power in Australia. The rematch with Haney gave Aussies hope, but after another lopsided loss, I doubt they would want to witness Kambosos get humiliated again. They'd probably root for Loma in this fight to make Kambosos quit boxing.

Lomachenko is doing it for the title. I doubt he'll get the same kind of money promoters in Japan offers for the Inoue fight.

[MulaKO]

Since they're both Top Rank, it'll most likely be Loma vs Shakur for unification.

Tank has lots of options right now.

Yup , that’s my thinking also
Get Loma a belt and get the Stevenson fight in for a cashout unless Loma somehow pulls off the win
Shakur had a bad outing last time out and I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt
Stevenson should win this one with an old Loma

Loma boxes this guys ears off.

In theory Loma beats everyone, in practice that hasn't happened. I think Loma is well past prime with a lot of miles on him & I think George's volume is gonna steal some rds here so I think there is more upset potential that a lot of ppl aren't seeing. Also this being in Aussie territory is likely to help George to win some close rds. And Loma tends to give away rds these days too so idk that I'm all that comfy with Loma winning. I favor him, but Loma is ripe to be beaten by a lot of guys these days.
