    Vitali Klitschko had been out of the ring for nearly 4 years and was age 37 when he schooled Sam Peter and won the WBC world title.

    Sergey Lyakhovich hadn't fought in 18 months before he beat Lamon Brewster for the WBO title.

    Those guys and their fans never cried like Walters and the threadstarter.

      Both sides are right.

      You can't fight a guy with the talent of Lomachenko coming off a draw and a year of inactivity.

      Still Lomachenko would beat any version of Walters.

      The reality is that Walters was overated due to his stoppage of an over-the-hill Donaire. Let's not forget that Walters was a punch or two away from getting stopped earlier in that fight anyway.

      Outside of that Walters has a win over an ancient Darchiniyan and an official draw vs. Sosa. He was just another guy that people got hyped about because of his power. Boxing's graveyard is filled with these overhyped punchers.

        Do you think Mayweather would pay Walters $1 mil for a Loma fight, which his haters say is not even a draw?

          Hence "shelf life"

          Not the purses

                Very inconsistent of TBE who says "I'll tell Haymon fighters are getting too much money."

                  True. Ward prefers balls.

                      Walters had a cool nickname and accent as well which helped with the hype 😀
