Man....I just can't get myself to root for Russell Jr. so although everyone is pretty much picking him to win I will be pulling for Loma in this one. Also, the size difference is tremendous so I figured if Loma can take advantage of that with a stiff jab this fight might be a good one. Well, may the best man win!

I hope Lomachenko puts the beats on Russell

I really hope Lomachenko wins this fight by knockout, but we'll see how it plays out this Saturday.

Given that pac-Floyd fight most likely won't happen, We're lucky as boxing fans to see this fight get made now. These are two tremendous talent meeting up fairly early in their career. They Could've let this build up and fight in the future when the money could've been much greater. This is what boxing is all about. Should be a good one. Favor Russell by a very small margin.

Please God let Loma spark out GRJ.

TBA wants his revenge, and it will be through Lomas left hand

My goodness. Why do so many people hate Gary Russell? He's quiet as hell and just shows up and fights.
