Comments Thread For: Vasyl Lomachenko To Face Fortuna or Martinez on June 11

[VG_Addict]

If Lomachenko beats either of them, he's definitely in the top 10 P4P.

The Russell Jr. fight prepared Lomachenko for Fortuna's hand speed. No way is he faster than GRJ.

I like Loma vs Fortuna. Finally a Loma fight I care about for the first time in 2 years/Gary Russell. Hope this gets made.

Fortuna leaves his chin open when he punches.

I see Lomachenko's timing and accuracy beating Fortuna's speed.

Chill...Fortuna is too young and hasn't fought anyone elite, he's only 25. I'd say wait til 27-29 to fight a guy like Lomachenko. In the meantime Fortuna should fight other good fighters like Uchiyama, Salido and Pedraza before fighting someone with a 396-1 amateur record and 2 Olympic Gold medals

Fortuna is as ready as he is going to be for Lomachenko. Him and Pedraza are both on about the same level expirience wise. Salido he beats the brakes off of and Uchiyama is as big if not a bigger challenge than Loma.

I think fortuna is better than walters, hope we can see this fight then

i didnt pick a winner..it is a damn good fight...and fortuna and lomo are totally different i just think lomo has to adjust and not throw in combos bc that is wat fortuna wants.
u're the first person to ever call fortuna slow tho...u sound completely like an idiot for it as well...boht of these men have world caliber speed
3 inch reach advan for javier...he knows how to use it...

this is a world level fight both men get full credit for the win if it is done the right way..

how about lomo going backwards?? seen the salido fight??
lomo is front foot heavy if he is that with fortuna that means he better be ready to trade punches...i'd favor fortuna bc he's a master at throwin looping shots during exchanges while not being their to take shots flush

I sounds like an idiot?

Lomachenko's fought Gary Russell Jr.'s and you're talking up Fortuna like Lomachenko's never seen speed before.

Fortuna has a reach advantage, but he's the shorter fighter here, and his reach is lessened by him dropping his hands and throwing wide looping punches. And Fortuna can be caught reaching.

We'll see how successful Fortun'as looping punches are against Lomachenko's footwork and defense.

yes russell is fast but nothing about his awkward..and he's very short and not rangy at all
could, should, would, and w/e u wanna say it is a top fight and lomo and fortuna are both going to have to adjust...
thing with fortuna is this..u can fight 800 fights and u might not run across his style but 3 times..
i think he matches lomo in every department and he has a handful of intangibles on his side

Call me crazy, but I think Fortuna will knock both out
