Lomachenko v Walters unification planned for October

[HI-TECH Boxing]

People tend to see what they want to see.I dont think its that subjective , he either does or doesn't. What fight would you suggest I watch that best displays him throwing wide shots?

He sure as heck doesn't throw straight punches. I agree with you to a certain degree but there's certain things people would disagree on when it comes to boxing. Like I say Walters throws pretty wide shots, while you don't think he does. You may say Pacquiao has quicker hands than Khan but I would say it's the opposite.
Walters has a weird punching style. He throws weird looking punches, he does have a sneaky uppercut though. To you it may not seem like he has a weird punching style. But what the hell do you mean boxing is not Subjective, when everyone will have different a opinion on things. It's not just a matter of does or doesn't.

So arguing about this won't lead anywhere. You're always going to disagree with me and I'll disagree with you on this topic.
I just think Walters throws shots that would allow Loma to work while he's throwing. You will disagree, I assume, so yeah boxing is Subjective. Subjective is opinion based!!!

Let's just see what happens if/when they fight.

Nice post. What I meant about certain things not being subjective is that they are facts.

His style is not about throwing wide shots and he is pretty accurate behind his jab. You saying he throws a wide jab?

I have no doubt he will throw alot of jabs in this fight, mixing it up with the sneaky uppercut you mentioned. Nice reach advantage for Walters.

That's great news, I hope this fight goes as planned. As a boxing fan, I like to see the two best fighters in a weight class square off in the ring.

He has a good jab, but I should have been more specific, I think he throws wide hooks. Don't think I'm trying to make Walters look bad, but as you can see from my avatar I'm a huge Lomachenko fan, so I'm riding for my guy and I'm trying to see what mistakes (or mistakes I feel I see), to see what Loma will be able to do in there.
I like Walters a lot and won't root against him besides Loma, But my boy Lomachenko has to take it!

It's a fight that has to happen and I hope a loss won't affect any of them. They can still go on to have a successful career after their fight.

The thing with me is, I dont think Loma can effectively fight Walters on the inside. I think he will eventually get dropped trying to fight in close and than beat up pretty bad on the outside. The reach advantage is pretty big.

Fantastic! On the fence.. maybe slightly leaning towards Loma.

You bring up some great points, that are making me kind of scared. A few things that will work in favor of Loma will be his patience and Walters is not the fastest guy on the block. His patience so he won't run into anything and just figure a way to slowly but surely attack Walters and find dents in his game. Loma is a fighter that knows he has 12 rounds to work with and takes his time. I usually get mad that he's a little to patient in there, but agaisnt Walters it would actually be a huge advantage. I feel like his patience and not knowing how to pace himself cost him the fight against Salido, although I personally saw him winning, but as you can see I'm a little biased. Loma also has superior hand and foot speed that could help him against Walter, don't let Walters get set. You mentioned Walter's huge reach advantage, Loma may be able to neutralize it with his upper body movement. Loma will have to learn how to sit down on his punches to earn Walters respect.

This is such an intriguing fight.

Great matchup if it gets made... Good timing as well... No need to let this fight "marinade"
