Comments Thread For: The Rise And Fall Of Lomachenko

[Smash]

I’ve never considered Lomachenko a brilliant boxer. He lost early on in his career and never really made the kind of impact floyd or pac did. Lomachenko is better than average, in my view. He compares to boxers like Timothy Bradley, Abner Mares, and Roman Chocolatito. But to say he’s a revolutionary fighter, I just don’t see that. I mean, even Ryan Garcia could be more impactful since he just beat hanky haney, who loma could not even chin check.

u are comparing ryan garcia to loma?

ryan garcia hasnt even won a belt at his weight class yet and cheated missed weight and now has other issues as well

Floyd and Ward are 2 guys who come to mind, who didn't have a "fall".
Otherwise most fighters stay around too long and convince themselves that they've still "got it". If a fighter trains smart and takes care of himself, he can fight into his thirties but nobody beats father time.

ward is a terrible example

he retired early and didnt have a fall because of his safety nets he had in place, ie the judges and ref type of thing, great fighter but not as invincible as his fans make him out to be

Lomo's stance on the war makes me like him even more. There is NO WAY Ukraine can win this war. Prolonging it only prolongs the killing. End it now.

Its a proxy war to drain Russia of resources so they will be less useful as an ally to China if there is a direct war with US and China in the future. Despite what they say on the media, the west does NOT want the war to end quickly, the entire point is to take as many lives, dollars and equipment as possible. Ukraine is being used as the pawn. Shame people cant see that.

i don think its a fall at all actually

loma fought the hard fights, he fought takeover teo when he was KO'ing people at his best just won a belt and loma said lets do a unification like he said he would do

if u fight guys who are good when they are going well losses can happen, its boxing

loma has done well even at 135 where he fought the top guy at the time haney who was 160 probably in the ring that night, he fights the top fights so thats not falling

that is just dramatic headline baiting. The only real flaw he shown was with Lopez not letting his hands go the first half of the fight. Salido who cares Loma jumped the gun too quickly thinking he could beat a vet in his 2nd fight, how many people fight a 12 rounder their second pro fight, its a lot different than amateurs. Haney, is far bigger than him far younger and the fight could have went either way, so loma overcame many advantages that Haney held to keep the fight that close.

Hes mid 30s and depends on speed and reflexes for his style, hes just getting old, theres been no "fall"

most of Ukrainians hate lomachenko for being brainwashed russian church idiot. Even his Usyk doesnt speak or show up together with him these days.
Personaly i wish him lose every fight he has and *** off to russia where he belongs, he has no business carrying UA flag.

Have you any idea the size difference between Loma and Ryan Garcia?

The US has used young ukrainian men as pawns to weaken russia for their own interests. Zelenskyy is a puppet who sold out Ukraine.

That's twice I've agreed with you. Next thing I know 57blues will start making rational statements.

Only an ignorant man who didn't understand history would post what you just did. Educate yourself, brother. Your TV is lying to you.
