    He won every round, did you see the fight? it was a clear robbery

      Yes, I remember watching the fight and thinking Walters won by close margin. He didn't win every round.

          Yes, because they are incredibly biased.

            Walters beat Sosa, but Sosa was no joke. Sosa defeated Fortuna.

              Why don't you give him a break? Salido is a bad sob and he came in over weight and strong as a bull. He fought pretty dirty and Loma had little experience as a pro against such an experienced pro. Loma is fighting the excellent fighter Walters. If he is overrated Walters will prove it.

                Of course that's not what I said. You've seen people here use his amateur record to illustrate his greatness, you just did it yourself. He's short on quality pro fights and I absolutely think it's fair to weigh in his amateur record when considering how good the guy is. I'm pointing out the hypocrisy of dropping the amateur record when it's convenient to the argument, then acting as if it's irrelevant.

                Regarding betting; lol. You think I'm against Loma or something?? I don't have a dog in this fight. I like Loma a always look forward to catching this fight. Don't go the route of the hardcore ggg fan and get offended at reasonable criticism. I brought up some relevant facts. If you think Walters is a hopeless pile of dogshyt, then I expect you will not ever bring him up when defending Loma's resume should he win. Personally, I think it could go either way and will be a fantastic win for either guy.
                Again, there's a difference between amateur boxing and pro boxing. Seems like it's something simple to understand but apparently you don't.
                What if some calls him a great amateur, which I did. Is there something wrong with that? Was he not a great amateur boxer?
                You make it seem like people use his amateur career to say he's already a great pro and I have never seen anyone say that. I'm sure there are some people that say that, but again what do you expect. That's the way some people are. Just let it go.
                Most people know that Loma is still learning as a pro.

                I said Walters can beat any 130 pounder, other than Loma, before on this site and I'm hoping that Top Rank keeps giving Walters more chances after this fight to prove me right, so don't try to put words into my writing.
                And why get offended that some people are picking Loma by dominant decision? I see people say that Walters will easily and/or brutally KO Lomachenko and you don't see my freaking whining about it. It's their freaking prediction/opinion at the end of the day. We will find out in less than a month. Maybe Walters does easily beat Loma or vice versa. Maybe it's a close fight. We will find out.

                  You're either playing dumb or genuinely can't figure out what my original statement meant. Either way, I've run out of ways to explain it to you.

                  About me supposedly being "offended" that people wouldn't pick Walters, again, you make zero sense. I'm probably closer to being a Loma fan than a Walters fan. I just don't have a problem being objective. You're the one getting offended and I've seen you do this before over anyone who doesn't fawn over Loma. Lighten up a little.

                    Lol, I make perfect sense you just can't stand that I proved you wrong.
                    You've made similar comments regarding this fight and Lomachenko in the past, so I know what you're all about.

                      Name ONE fighter in the last 10 years who fought a top fighter like Salido in his second pro fight! Of course a fighter improves after fighting someone like that in their second pro fight! Such as sitting down on their punches, making movement count more. This fight against Walters is an even fight. A little like Mayweather vs Corrales. Bigger stronger vs slicker more movement and that's why I'm picking Lom. But boxing is the theater of the unexpected and crazy things can happen like one fighter changing his style and doing the unexpected and outpunching the puncher or out boxing the boxer.
