Comments Thread For: Vasiliy Lomachenko to Face Shakur Stevenson With Win Over George Kambosos

[vitruvian]

This will be great if Bob accepts a one fight extension but anything more an Shakur needs to pass and bounce to PBC

This is going to be a fun run to watch. Can Lomachenko still be great at 36? Even before age became a bigger factor, 135 seemed to be his peak. Fighting larger opponents became more of a difficult task even for someone as great as he is. But at 36, how much more does Loma have in the tank? I for one am excited to see how far Loma can still go. I hope he can accomplish his dream of becoming undisputed.

Kambozo was a one hit wonder. Claim to fame was the Teo upset, but that was him ABOVE his ceiling. A once in a lifetime.

Loma skill level should be enough, but Loma could get caught. Loma would be underdog against any of these other top guys at the weight.

I don't think so. I would consider him a one hit wonder if he had knocked out Teofimo after getting dominated by Teo. But, he wasn't He was the better man that night. Teofimo can use all the excuses he wants, but George was the better man that night. Which tells me that George can be a good fighter IF he gets up for the fight. He knew Teo was a once in a lifetime fight for world titles. I think he's gonna get up for Loma. I'm not saying he's better than Loma, but I wouldn't consider him a one hit wonder.

Why would Arum want a ‘boring’ fighter to re-sign with him?

Or a fighter he said he lost ‘millions’ on and had no star-power in Bud Crawford. How come he said he’d be willing to work with him again?

Questions.. questions.

If I was Shakur I’d run for the hills. Arum promised Crawford the Pac fight for 4 years, only to later on say he didn’t want Pac to get hurt LOL.

Spoke about Shakur vs Loma numerous times and Navarette vs Shakur… yet here we are. Run for the hills and sign with matchroom…

Arum is cheap. He is the best at grooming young fighters, but he won't invest in them to take them to stardom, especially the black ones. Once they leave and become a stars on their own, then he tries to reel them back in with promises and praises.

bud & shakur are best buddies

surely bud will be on to any antics arum may be up to in a flash

shakur would benefit greatly from a loma fight tho especially if it was a unification fight

arum did nothing for loma tho in the devin haney big fight, that old ass guy could have easily swung a very close fight like that for a loma decision if he wanted to, but he didnt

I hope Shakur Stevenson bounces from Top Rank and isn’t tempted to take the bait of Lomachenko to renew his contract with Arum.

Shakur has been calling for a Loma fight. What bait is he taking? It will be a nice payday against an aging star. Stevenson doesn't have a lot of options for big money right now. The Loma fight is a no brainer!

Those links don't prove shlt you dumbass lmfao it's just Arum talking as he always does. Show where the fight was actually promised like you claim

can you read ebonics boy? Go back to your mud hut

Arum said the fight would happen verbally and yet he gave 3 different reasons why it didn’t happen eventually, shocking. Stop deflecting putà LOL.

[messi807]

Lmao yeah because shltholes like Baltimore, Chicago, Oakland, San Francisco etc are so nice. But it da white man's fault doe lmao funny boy

“da white man” who k1lled your native ancestors and wiped out half your population

Baltimore, Chicago, Oakland are nothing compared to the the worst cities in Mexico. You’ll get robbed, beaten, r5ped, trafficked and thrown in the ocean. ‘Thugs’ hahaha.

I’m very well educated on history, current affairs and BOXING. I don’t understand why you still challenge me puta LOL.

Kambosos was a big underdog in his prior two fights before he beat Teofimo Lopez. People forget that.

He was supposed to lose when he faced American former IBF lightweight champion Mickey Bey in the US.
He was supposed to lose when he faced British former IBF featherweight champion Lee Selby in the UK.
He was supposed to lose when he faced American reigning unified, lineal lightweight champion Teofimo Lopez in the US.

Three wins in a row as a road b-side against current or former titlists is not a one hit wonder.

Haney clowned him twice and he looked bad against Hughes too, but those fights don't change what he accomplished. He wasn't even supposed to make it to the Lopez fight, let alone win it.

Ultimately pac just didn't want it plain and simple. The money wasn't there for him.
