Comments Thread For: Nicholas Walters: Nothing To Gain in Beating Lomachenko!

Definitely, it's an intriguing element given how Walters reacted after he got caught flush against Donaire. Moreover, this fight gives Walters exposure with the Mexican crowd, who will certainly take a liking to him given his style and the fact that he speaks Spanish very well.

Yeah I can't imagine that Donaire hits as hard as Gonzalez at this weight. The fact that Nonito made him do a two-steps makes me wonder he'd react to a flush shot from someone like Gonzalez. Hoping this comes off.

I'm really disappointed with Nicholas Walters trying to sway away from Loma.

More like the other way around. Jhonnys chin has been his Achilles heel and Walters hits like a mack truck.

Yeah that's what makes it a great fight. Walters is fearless in the ring and against Johnny's southpaw style he could walk into something fierce. I'm not ready to crown him coming off an impressive win against a Donaire who isn't quite the same at that weight and seemed to lose confidence following the Rigo bout. But Walters surprised me in that fight and I won't bet him against him versus Gonzalez.

Lomas a great fighter but out of the two Jhonny's the more proven and more of a legit champ. He beat a guy who was on the brink of the top 10 p4p for his belt in dominant fashion, while Loma won a vacant belt against an unproven fighter.

Jhonny's belt is definitely more legit than Loma's, who, coming off a loss, beat a "prospect" for a vacant belt. However "more proven" does not mean he's the better fighter as of today. Outside of the Mares fight Gonzalez hasn't really looked good in his last few fights and I think Lomachenko would beat him right now.

Nishioka and Arce were far more proven than Rigo when Donaire faced them in 2012 but he was criticized because everyone knew that Rigondeaux was a tougher fight for Donaire. In my opinion Walters is in the same situation: he can fight Gonzalez, Mares etc. but Lomachenko is his biggest threat.

Walters is quickly killing the momentum he just got.

Walters is a clown. He would get exposed by Loma and it looks like he understands that.

Take GGG's pic down before you call a champion like Walters a clown.

Walters is taking titles from top guys... while Golovkin is squatting on them

Show some respect.

Walters wants the Loma fight to build so he can get paid..He's not scared

If they fight now then what??????

They have to play this smart and make this a rare superfight in the featherweight division.

What kind of momentum does Loma have?

Walters is the man at Featherweight not Loma.
