Comments Thread For: Arum: Lomachenko is Intrigued By Prospect of Fighting Gamboa

[HeroBando]

WTF DOES ADONIS HAVE TO DO WITH ARUM NOT OFFERING A 50-50 TO 2 A LEVEL YOUNG FIGHTERS WHILE BOTH WERE ACTING..

AND MIND YOU THE ONE WITH A LOSS WAS SET TO MAKE 350K MORE..

are you out your mf'n mind..i swear i wanna slap mfs like you

I'm again telling you to learn some boxing. Blue chippers get better purses duh

[CubanGuyNYC]

For a few rounds but even against subpar comp he's gassing mid fight and running out of ideas. I hope he proves me wrong but I think he's done.

I don't think we'll ever see what Yuri might've been. That ship sailed with the Brandon Rios fiasco. But I think Gamboa is still an exciting fighter and, provided he can bring all that he has left, he can make for a very entertaining fight with Lomo. These are two very fast, very skilled, very athletic fighters. One guy wants to climb the ladder of stardom, the other is trying to salvage his career. I think this has the potential to be one of the better match-ups out there.

After that, maybe Morales. **** Arum.

blue chippers? if u dont take your thunderdome********** ho ass on some damn where..that dude had a loss on his mf' resume and was coming off a gary russell only win...and he'd made it clear he was sort of scared of walters talkin about his weight and stuff...THE THAT BLUE CHIPPER AND WALTERS TO DO VADA OR USADA BTW..

[HI-TECH Boxing]

who's getting credit? joshua for that bs klit fight? looooooool

not i dont get their money..but fair deals make fair fights..THAT IS BEST FOR BOXING FANS..

highest pay day doesnt mean most fair..they robbed him and gave him a draw to keep from paying..they politically manipulated him and i stick up for any fighter in that bag..

loma will get credit when bob has to stop stirring his pot to be good

Walters could have taken the fight earlier in the year but he didn't.
Why don't you blame him?

Gamboa and Walters are two different situations. I don't like the Gamboa fight to happen next, because he hasn't been fighting consistently in the last few years. Walters was actually fighting. He just didn't fight this year.
Gamboa was even inactive going into the Crawford fight.
Yeah, that's right, Crawford fought Gamboa after over a year lay off, but I don't see people complaining about that.
In fact, people give Crawford a lot of credit for beating Gamboa, who was not in his natural weight class by the way. I don't see people saying that Crawford fought Gamboa after a year lay off.

I don't want to see Loma-Gamboa fight next. I agree with that. Gamboa needs a few more fights before I wouldn't mind that fight.
Loma would get no credit from me for beating Gamboa next. I don't want to see that next. Get Gamboa a few fights then I would be open to seeing that fight.
They need to get that Salido fight.

bc his promoter should undervalue him after all the work he's put in for him..and his promoter admitted the offer was too low only to sit him on the bench.

lets face it a fight that peaks at 700k on hbo between 2 undefeated fighters doesnt have an A side...both did similar numbers prior to the fight as well..think walters did a few thousand more..and was undefeated..NOTHING SCREAMS THAT GIVING LOMA MORE MONEY IS FAIR...idc if he decline they could have gave him a sosa rematch!! they could have did anything but just sit him onthe damn bench

Guess what? Walters is no longer undefeated. You care too much about undefeated records. That's why fighters are too freaking scared to test each other.
Are you still a fan of Fortuna after he lost his undefeated record to Jason Sosa? Remember, the Sosa that easily lost to Walters, but was given a gift draw.
I have a theory on why they gave Sosa a draw and it has nothing to do with Lomachenko. It's just a pattern I'm noticing with certain fighters and decisions. I prefer not to say anything more than that, but if you look very carefully you'll see that certain fighters get favored. Unfortunately, Walters doesn't belong on that list of fighters, but neither does Loma.

How come you didn't reply to my Crawford-Gamboa comment? Why can Crawford get credit for beating Gamboa after coming off over a year lay off, but Loma can't get credit for beating Walters coming off an 11 month lay off?
Interesting...

...

bold: u never heard me clammer for undefeated records..and walters has wanted this fight for some time he just wanted to be paid fairly so that point is void

AND YEP I STILL LOVE WATCHING FORTUNA..he goes for it fight whoever they'll give him with no political bs...round 12 of his last fight was soe round of the year type ****..fun fighter..not the best but i respect him

i didnt give crawford huge credit for gamboa..i said he fougth a midget..i'm on record saying i wasnt sold on crawford until he beat post and also his first fight at 140 showed a lot to me vs robert garcia's former fighter...i saw no need for crawford vs boa..i wanted garcia boa and crawford e3ven told gamboa that he shouldnt have even took this fight...REMEMBER??

NO FIGHTER BELONGS ON THAT LIST UNTIL HE PUTS HIMSELF THERE..THAT IS MY PROBLEM WITH LOMA...all these rules are being broken for him and ppl are fine with it

Gamboa seriously needs a tune-up. Maybe not a tune-up, but going straight to a Lomachenko fight doesn't seem like the smartest thing to do. I'd rather Gamboa vs. Salido 2. A lot has happened since their first fight.

Don't worry Papa Arum will not make this fight happen. Too risky. Instead lets just use Gamboa name but end up fighting and unknown boxer.
