Vasyl vs Gamboa/Rigondeaux/Donaire

[boliodogs]

Rigo is the best fighter of them all but he is only a 122 pounder. Donaire is at 126 now and a vicious puncher. Gamboa is a big 130 pounder. The way he fought last night he has a chance to beat any of them but he could benefit from more pro fights. He might beat Donaire but Donaire can turn a fight around with one punch. I'll pick him over Donaire. Rigo could probably beat him. I think Gamboa would be a slight favorite because of his size, speed and power.

Well he is a Featherweight so Walters, Jhonny Gonzalez and Donaire is more REALISTIC Match Ups, not only that but Rigondeaux is going into his last fight with Top Rank but somehow this will get turned into "Rigodeaux is Ducking Loma" I am sure once he leaves Top Rank after his next fight

Lomachenko vs Walters would be a excellent match up, Walters is extremely underrated and a bit overlooked right now but is starting to make a name for himself he is a HUGE Featherweight carrying probably Welterweight Power

Gamboa is already all the way up to 135 not sure how realistic that match up is right now either maybe down the road, Loma looks like he can move up a bit

as for Donaire I think Loma stops Donaire, Nonito just doesn't look the same to me

can't leave out Evgeny Gradovich another good Featherweight so things are heating up in that Division

Vasyl is too easily hittable, and doesn't have enough power to keep them off of him. He gets KTFO by all 3, maybe Rigondeaux takes it easy on him.

Gary Russell Jr. landed 10% of his punches... how exactly did you come to the conclusion that Lomachenko is 'easily hittable'?

Theres a reason why Ive always hated your boxing opinion. Ive never seen anyone as confident with so little reason to be.

[ChampBox@PR]

Lomachencko still fights like an Amateur. He doesn't fight the whole round, and his offense is not enough to keep people off of him.

Guys that work the whole 3 minutes, can beat him fairly easy. Donaire and Gamboa would give him a pasting, and Rigo would simple school him.

Loma needs more seasoning as a Pro. The talent is there though

those "compubox" stats are worthless, gary landed his share and it was way more than stats, lomachenko won but it wasn't a domination... By the way he is 8-1 in the professional ranks.

Loses to rigo. The rest are toss ups. Depends how Gamboa looks vs crawford

Loma fights nothing like an amateur. You dont need to fight 3 minutes of every round when you're beating on your opponent at will (and it wasnt even that infrequent) and theyre landing at a 10% rate... Thats like saying Floyd and Rigo fight like amateurs because they dont throw all night. When Loma isnt punching he's defending and controlling distance and creating his openings. He could stand to be a bit more active but it's hard to criticize the damn near domination. Not everyone is as fast as Russell and is going to be willing to throw 10 rapid fire punches in the air... Anyone a bit slower likely gets countered and will seem much more inactive.

Also...


Donaire (lets not forget his issues vs the stance) and Gamboa are the kings of inconsistency when it comes to fightin all 3 minutes of a round though...

Abner Mares matches up better with Loma than do Donaire and Gamboa imo.

Gamboa can be either spectacular or lackluster and recklessly get dropped and hurt. I think Loma stands a real good chance vs Gamboa and... Call me crazy but Loma looks like hed beat Nonito to me. I'm a HUGE Donaire fan, almost a blind nut hugger butI get that vibe.


Also, I'm surprised Gary even was credited with those punches... He landed air and gloves all NIGHT. Loma had his cheat codes on.

[DannYankee]

I see him having trouble with people that can move him back throughout his career, he doesn't do so well in that situation,but if they throw him against any of those guys right now his chances are not promising to abysmal. In a couple years tho he'll be better they'll be on the decline all except Rigo he could make a good matchup with. As we all know Rigo would skip in there win an easy UD and skip out before Lomachenko can say gold medal.

Gamboa is done as an elite fighter. That will be clear after the Crawford fight, IMO... He's a lightweight anyway.

Donaire is damaged.

Rigo would be a chess match of the highest level. Close decision for either is the most likely outcome.

gamboa and donaire would be competitive but i would pick vasyl over both. el chacal however would take him to school, nobodys messing with guillermo realgoddoe.
