    where do you see Lomachenko setting up shop in the US?

    I say Barclays, MSG, or prudential center. Large eastern european population in the area (North east). I could see Vegas as well but who knows. Im not familiar with the demographics over there and im sure a lot of euros would support him.

    What are your thoughts?

    He will be selling out MSG. Not the theatre, the arena

      Yeah the theater is too small a venue. Even the golden gloves was such a shame when moved to the theater as opposed to the arena back then. People from around the world would come to compete in the NY gloves just because it was the arena.

        I would say yea the Northeast New York, New Jersey maybe up at the Indian Casinos in the area.

        He will probably get some fights in Vegas also as he gets built up on undercards but I would expect him to be an east coast guy.

              they will probably spread him around between those 3, just so he can become a "name"

                Lol the NY golden gloves is just for New Yorkers. My brother lost in the semis one year

                Bring him to NY tho, i'd love to watch him. I remember when i saw guys like rigo fighting in B.B Kings in times sqaure in front of 50 people. Wont get that with Loma tho

                    Why do you say that? (not disagreeing, just wondering).
