Comments Thread For: Lomachenko Weighs in at 129.6 Pounds; Jason Sosa Misses Weight

[-Kev-]

First Salido now Sosa missed weight vs Lomachenko. Loma got his oppnents so shook, they need to gain extra weight against him.

Don't blame HBO for the betting public. The odds are dictated on the money placed down. It should be something like 2-1 or 3-1

Nah it shouldn't be that tight. That would put it in the territory of like Porter-Thurman or Cotto-Canelo, but it's definitely a more uneven fight than those were (on paper).

Idk what I would make the odds if I were making them but it's not a 50-50ish fight.

I wouldn't make them 25-1 either but given the history of betting odds for Lomachenko fights I am not surprised they are this high (he was 50/1 over Roman Martinez).

How easy can Lomachenko have it. Martinez was weight drained and having weight troubles. Walters didn't even try to fight back, and now Sosa is weight drained and having weight troubles.

Smh whiteys have it so good

OMG, what a cheater! Now he'll get no credit from me when he KO's Loma. lol

[HarvardBlue]

When the odds are 25-1 does it really matter?

[hitking]

Forget the weight kid. Come in where you're comfortable.

[CubanGuyNYC]

Won't affect the outcome. Lomo smokes this kid.

lol Sosa following the Salido blueprint...

He should make weight on his second attempt though.

+1

The salido blueprint is the best, now expectthat some low blows hhahaha

[Reloaded]

If he can't lose 4 oz. in 2 hours, he doesn't deserve a title! How can you **** up the biggest fight in your life?

Normally gum and a spit bucket would lose that over a few hours, unless he was super dry because once you hit the bottom there is nothing more to give.

But as you say it makes you wonder how they fck it up on the big day.

I think many of you are underestimating Sosa. He can fight rough and tough. I expect a distance fight.
