Comments Thread For: Vasyl Lomachenko Dominates, Stops Nicholas Walters in Seven

Ward has nothing to do with the word P4P. He was badly exposed.

exposed how? expose means a weakness that future opponents can exploit..what weakness did ward show that night?

[Cheek busting]

Get a life. Loma got his two Olympics basically because Rigo wasn't there.

Rigo wins 100 times out of 100 fights with Loma. Rigo is the greatest Boxer in the world amateur or professional, regardless of all marketing, media politics and promotors BS.

Rigo has 13 losses as amateur; Loma has one, that he avenged.

Lol... Loma is a 2-weight world champion, with a stoppage win over the dude that Rigo beat - but also arsed him, and had to get off the canvas to do it.

Rigo is such a chinny little **** lol. Rigo won't DARE leave 122 safety-class... While Loma will likely move on to be at least a 3-weight world champion: 126, 130 already; 135 coming soon.

And off-topic, but Rigo is one of the ugliest professional boxers of all-time - resembling a gremlin more than a human... While Loma is one of the best looking.

That is what a great pound for pound fighter looks like, not the clinch-fest impostor that got a gift last week. Great performance by Loma, and thankfully he took it out of the judges' hands.

yep, good clean action, good punch variety, both offence AND defence. Not clinching and relying on jabs to the body like some...

That he can't win without a ref who lets him hold every 5 seconds... Oh, and not to mention THREE AMERICAN JUDGES lol! Seriously, wtf is that? Lol I've never seen that before - 3 American judges when one fighter is foreign, while another is American... Oh well, Ward has to rematch Kovalev, and can't duck him like he thinks he can! Hahah

If a real ref, not a racist, biased one, would have been in there, he'd have warned Ward by the 5th round, and started taking points away by the 8th...

Last time I checked, holding/clinching is against the rules of boxing.

be honest..the ref simply allowed both guys to work out of clinches. both guys were getting away with fouls, you putting all the blame on ward just shows your bias..kovalev would put him in headlocks as soon as ward came inside, he would rabbit punch ward and in more than one occasion wrestled ward to the ropes and pinned him there..lets be real man.

and i don't get this, after floyd vs maidana 2 kenny bayless got torched for breaking up clinches and trying to keep the fight "clean"..now we got a ref letting the fighters brawl it out and he's getting criticized for it..refs can't satisfy everybody.

you even accuse the ref of being racist, wtf is that about?

and nothing in your post explained how ward was "exposed". .again exposed is a weakness future opponents can exploit.

I'm disappointed in Walters for quitting, but holy **** what a performance by Lomachenko. This guy is unreal. I remember after the Salido fight I thought, "give him another 5-6 fights and he'll be as hard as anyone in boxing to beat." We're just about there. Damn.

His movement is incredible.

Loma is a great fighter who dominated and outclassed Walters. Like GGG there's no one in his division that will touch him. Off topic but as far as the Ward/Kovalev replay, you know if it walks and talks like a duck it's a duck. I still had Kovalev winning easily but I don't think the ref made any real difference in the outcome. I thought Max Kellerman was clearly biased in his commentary, preparing the audience for the nod Ward was about to receive. Ward and Kovalev were both shocked by the decision. That's boxing and if any of the judges had Walters ahead in last night's fight they should be banned from the sport.

Ward won...Walter's shouldn't been of a year

Watched fight twice now Ward definitely won and Kovalev was holding. In terms of Walter you don't fight a lomanchenko after being off a year...that's your fault

[champion4ever]

First, I would like to say congratulations to Vasyl Lomachenko on yet another dominating performance. He is the real deal and was the better fighter tonight.

He showed why he is regarded as P4P one of the best fighters out there. On the other hand, Walters appeared at times frustrated, over matched and way out of his league.

Once a fighter has reached his limit and have become mentally broken, then there is no other recourse for him other than to retire or throw in the towel.

[Verus]

No conspiracy theories as necessary to explain what happened. Walters was outclassed every minute of every round, was being embarrassed and would have been dropped in the very next round.
