Comments Thread For: Lomachenko-Marriaga on 8/5, Crawford-Indongo on 8/19 - ESPN

Full unification? Eddie Hearn came through This is great news for boxing. Crawford can move up after and start chipping away at 147 next.

I would like to see Crawford settle his rivalry with Danny Garcia. The **** talking between the two camps would be epic. Crawford responds aggressively towards his opponents when they get under his skin and I know Angel would piss him off.

Duuuudddeee....Terrence/Danny would be bad f**king ass

I know we all wanted the Rigo fight but look at reality. #1 a fight of that magnitude is very unlikely to be on that short of notice. #2 it's Loma's first fight on ESPN, and Bob wants to showcase him. Thus Marriaga. As for Salido -- it doesn't look like that's ever happening for Loma at this point. I think it was kind of now or never for that fight.

Look, IF Team Lomachenko follows up this Marriaga showcase with another showcase level opponent, then I'll question them.

But come on...y'all are nuts that think you can put together a fight on the level of Lomachenko/Rigondeaux, get the f**king contract done, and have them fighting in like 35 days from now...that's pure f**king fantasy.

Bob's gonna showcase Lomachenko in his first ESPN fight and then let's see what he does next. This Rigondeaux fight can be revisited after Marriaga.

Lomo's entire career other then the Salido fight he lost has been a "showcase".

Theres also Broner in a super fight if he manages to beat Garcia. Crawfords career reminds me of Bradley at 140 how he didn't waste any time making the key fights to push his career forward. A lot of fighters stall they careers but not those two.

You'e high as f**k. Pass me the f**king number to your dealer please.

If you think Gary Russell (who was Lomachenko's what, THIRD fight of his professional career!?) and/or Nicholas Walters were showcase level opponents, then you DON'T KNOW **** ABOUT F**KING BOXING. And you should log off and forget your password. Forever.

2004 for super lightweight

2006 for any weight class.

Jermaine Taylor- Middle
Zab Judah- Welter
O'Neil Bell- Cruiser

We're the last in 06

Judah won only won 3 belts not all 4.

Same goes with Oneil bell.

Who was SLW???

All 4

Hopkins/ODH -2004
Hopkins/Eastman -2005
Hopkins/Taylor -2005

But I was wrong on 2004 date.

"I QUIT" Walters isnt that good. He just has size advantage over most. And then couldn't even make weight. And who has he beat that's so great?? He started looking ordinary once he moved up in weight.

Russell Jr. Is good but fights once and then retires for a year.

End day an Uber driver with a SHT ton of losses beat Lomachenko.

And clowns here have lomachenko as the #1 best hahahahahahahaha ...fighting leftovers

Russell was much greener than Lomo and built up a gaudy undefeated record facing cans. Walters was coming off a 1 year layoff and 1.5 years since he had an actual win going into their fight. #FACTS

And if Walters is so great, he sure has lit the world on fire since that fight huh?

So the 2 best wins of the supposed "P4P #1" are a green Gary Russell Jr. and Walters

Be an AWESOME dream fight and styles make good sense. Danny has a good chin, is long and has a great hook. I know everyone would probably pick Crawford but IMO that's a 50/50 fight.
