Comments Thread For: Video: Vasyl Lomachenko on Facing Manny Pacquiao

[hectari]

Lomachenko is a refined more technical version of Manny.

Manny was the king of angles, but Lomachenko adds defense and slickness to those angles.

Both of them use the same style of in and out flurrying but Loma is slick he will slip and pull and slide and roll with a punch, while Manny would just get hit on the way out. plus Pac will be off his feet while Loma doesn't get off balance much at all like Pac. Pacquiao is the rough draft, Lomachenko is the evolved version of Manny.

Both are southpaws too.

Lomachenko should win easy at this stage of Manny career.

Respect to Loma for learning English. Now thats a fighter doing what it takes to connect with his fans. He actually speaks it pretty clearly, he forgets a word or two but what he knows sounds like he's been studying really hard. I just became a bigger fan.

Dam I coulda swore he spoke no English

"Mayweather just defense." Then big man drag him away. Haha.

He makes a pretty interesting point.

One of my top 3 fighters out there, I would like to see him in the future vs Gamboa, Linares, Mickie Garcia and lastly to whoop Verdejo's arss to make way for the real deal no contenders allowed.

I got this dude as the Number 1 pound for pound fighter in the world

The response is very different isn't it? You ask the same question with guys like Broner or Crawford's team they'll go berserk and throw the foulest language they can and demand all sorts of things.

Great Post .....in my book I got Lomachenko as the No.1#4# fighter in the world and he seems down to earth

Lomachenko is the more fundamental fighter while Pacquiao is more unorthodox. They are somewhat parallel in terms of fighting style but Loma is more refined while Pacquiao is the more riskier fighters.

WTH he speaks better English than GGG and Kovalev. Didn't know that.

Yeah the guy is a real humble dude. Easily one of my favorite fighters right now.
