Comments Thread For: Photos: Vasyl Lomachenko Sparring Hard For Pro Debut

[anonymous2.0]

What would happen if he lost?

TR would have egg all over its face and all the talk and rumors about Lomachenko getting a title shot before his 10th pro fight go out the window.

I assume Lomachenko is good for being an Olympic gold medalist, but he's no Rigo.

Lomachenko is great. His style is impressive and with 400 fights there isn't anything someone can bring thst he hasn't seen before. LO MA CHEN KO LO MA CHEN KO

Has elite technical skills but has no power at all...

If you actually followed his career you would know that's not true.

Lulz Nice timing too

Lom's no Shiming, he's got very good power on his punches.

Not sure if serious? "good for being an Olympic gold medalist" What does that even mean?

Clearly you don't follow boxing

I;m looking forward to his debut. Does anyone know who it was that he dropped

[RlCKY]

Two-time Olympic champion Vasyl Lomachenko is training hard at the Wild Card Gym in Hollywood, California. Lomachenko makes his pro debut, at featherweight, on October 12th at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas. He faces Jose Ramirez on the Juan Manuel Marquez vs. Timothy Bradley HBO Pay-Per-View. Lomachenko hopes to face the winner of Orlando Salido vs. Orlando Cruz in his second bout. Salido-Cruz takes place on the same night, for the WBO featherweight title.

yes, this is not news anymore. as long as he wins his first fight - his 2nd fight should be for the belt

damn that's crazy, certainly this is the quickest a fighter was given a shot at a title...I can't even think of a fighter whose debut was a 10 rounder.

I can't believe they're fast-tracking a guy that is 25 years old.

Good for him though, if you got the skills, why fight a bunch of stiffs?
