Comments Thread For: Walters Wants Lomachenko Next; Arum Eager To Make It

[Chief2ndzOnly!]

Hell Im thinking bout even inviting casuals over for this fight. Im hella excited for it. Should be a good scrap.

Sounds like this fight will happen later on in the year. I think Loma wins easily.

I agree with everything you said, except for the last word.

I definitely favor Loma, he is a class act.

But not too sure about that last word you used

Would be a real turn up for the books if this Marriaga guy did a job on Walters...incidentally for people that don't know this, the guy apparently beat Walters before, in the Olympics.

Edit - I should specify, qualification for the Olympics.

Sounds like you are concerned for Lomachenko getting in the ring with Walters.

Great Fight! But Marriaga could pull the upset so Walters better focus on him. He looks like he hits hard and he has some Boxing Skills but I think Walters Size and that Long Jab could be the difference.

This is not the Amateurs or Olympics, this is 12 Rounds and no Head Gear!

It is also the hurt game. Certain fighters/styles make the adjustment better than others. I'm not familar with Marriaga, but it will be interesting to see how he has adjusted.

Loma takes his belt and his heart. IDK why he would be so eager to take on Loma.

Why couldn't Uncle Bob have this mindset in 2010 when we all wanted to see Gamboa-Lopez. :durr1:

"Marinate it!"

Maybe he learned his lesson

[wlliam]

Go straight into it...no f....ing around.

Well why the he11 is Walters fightn Marriungi and not Loma? I doubt it gets made this year,.Bob will let it marinate so long that by the time its made itll have lost its luster.

Walters better not Sleep on this fight or he'll end up getting Khan'ed.

This could turn out to be the real fight of the century. I think lomas defense is just too good for Walters, but who knows. These are the top 2 featherweights in a stacked division. This is what I like about bob arum, he has no problem putting two of his top guys in against each other, unlike haymon who does mismatch after mismatch and has his top guys calling out other top guys with no real intention of actually fighting them.
