  • If Lomachenko isn't the best of all time, i'm calling him a hype job

    I'm serious.

    The hype over this guy is absoloutley insane, i've seen people saying that right now he'd beat Pacquiao from the Hatton fight, i've seen them saying he's the best all the way up to 140 without setting foot in a pro ring.

    I've seen them say he's the best amateur ever.

    Talk about setting your sights high. I don't think it's possible for him to live up to the expectation.

    The guy has definitely a potential to be the best. Prof boxing and amateur boxing are very different sport, so he has to prove himself anyway. However, as an amateur he was boxing with a pro style as close as possible.

      He's made a terrible mistake in signing with Top Rank.

      K-2 or Golden Boy would have looked after his pro career very well.

      The greedy and selfish Bob Arum only looks out for himself, and ruthlessly exploits and uses boxers.

        Well my worry with him going to the states is that he will be looked after badly, as many overseas fighters are matched poorly and not treated as well as the american boxers

          The best of all time?, that's kinda of a lot to put on a dude who's yet to fight a pro fight.

              If his first fight is who they rumor it too be, then that's a horrible choice for a debut and no doubt they'll be some shady business going down for the fight.
              But what if he does win a world title in his second fight?

                As a certified lomo I have to say yes the hype would be over the top, the pro game is different and be has already made his first mistake (Signing for Arum).

                    Skill wise he has nothing on Rigoneaux. He is a high energy ,high intensity fighter and those types of fighters don't have a long shelf life. He will burn brightly and do very well until his physical powers begin to tarnish.
