The Official: "Hi-Tech" Lomachenko vs. "Axe-Man" Walters Thread

[siablo14]

Ok here's a more recent sparring vid.

Watch di man, star. Watch him nuh. Full of that calm confidence.
Walters by UD.

Walters underutilizes his long reach, and tbh maybe it's even a good thing when facing Lomachenko. Loma is master in taking away opponents jab. Nicolas short uppercuts with little step in on the inside are his most dangerous weapon against Loma (and they are things of beauty).

Loma's reach is so much shorter that Walters will be making a tactical mistake if he doesn't keep his jab pumping. Loma already has the faster hands and feet, but we still don't know yet how good Loma is on the inside. If he's as proficient on the inside as he is on the outside, I don't like Walters' chances in a phone booth.

I could see a late round stoppage for loma.donaire was able to badly hurt walters with one shot.

Axeman UD12!
This one is gonna be great too.

I see Walters giving Lomachenko problems during the first 4 rounds or so. After that, I see Loma's footwork and timing being too much for the Axeman

Walters UD. Don't ask me to explain just accept it.

Gonna need a link for that bro

Like the fight think it's one of the best of the year

My only thing is that Walters will be off for quite a bit and that video Insaw on Ego he looks like ballooned up. So I'm favouring Loma ( part of the reason I think TR made this fight ) to get the decision but Walters if he comes in shape could make things interesting and could pull off the upset.

top rank wanted to make this fight earlier. walters asking for too much money is what caused the delay.

After reading Arum tell the media that Lomochenko is the Ali means one thing.....Lomo has the judges in his pockets because he makes more business sense for Top Rank to win.

Walters please KO Lomochenko so you don't get robbed on the cards. Boxing there is a agenda and since Arum has had promotional issues with Walters I won't be surprised if he wants to Walters to lose at all cost. Look at the Sosa fight for evidence, also if Walters was active no way this fight would of gotten made.

WAR AXEMAN!!!

I have a feeling Walters will not be aggressive enough to take it out of the judges hands and walk away with a controversial L.....
