Comments Thread For: Garcia: I'm Interested, But Don't See Lomachenko Moving Up to 135

[HarvardBlue]

I don't see Lomachenko moving to 135 to fight Garcia. Lomachenko is too busy being a diva to entertain any serious fights.

As far as the fight would go, I favor Lomachenko. Mikey was good at cutting the ring off against Broner but he was stumbling around a few times when Broner changed direction on him. That's Lomachenko's forte. Lomachenko would have the edge in footwork, speed, and probably work rate. It would take a lot of rounds to contain Lomachenko and Mikey would be behind a lot of rounds by then. His only hope would be a late stoppage. Easier said.

I'm sure you said the same thing about weight compromise when GGG told Ward 164 instead of 168 - both compromising 4 pounds LOL..

You see these hypocrite pos... they have no principle - they just advocate based on racial hatred that they've been brainwashed with.. get a life..

You forgot a VERY important detail.... WARD NEVER said ANYONE from 154-168.

With ALL the links and videos out there even you can't lie to yourself on this one.

Why are you soo dumb???

Lomo would give Mikey a boxing lesson at 135.

I do think rigo is way overrated but so is Lomachenko,who cares how long ago u started your career if your 29 yrs old with his resume its still nothing to write home about.

Jeez Kush, you're a tough audience. Rigo and Loma are two of the best boxers of the current generation, how can they be overrated ? They are both demonstrably elite.

In Loma's case people love to recycle the Salido thing, but Loma made a couple of rookie mistakes in that fight (fair enough, he was a rookie for crissakes) in starting too slow and not handling the below-the-border tactics in a way to get the referee to react.

And you can nit-pick Rigo too, but both he and Loma are rated right where they should be, as is Mikey.

Got a feeling Loma would love to fight Mikey - they are both consumate pros, respect and love the sport, and neither worries about protecting a zero (even though Garcia has one, I doubt that's something he cares about). Plus a lot of people would love to see it happen. I think it would be a great fight and Loma would win on points, I just don't see Garcia tagging him with a clean power shot over 12.

Current generation??? They're both like around 30 years old??? My bad Rig. is 36 born almost in the 70's... You don't know how to add for SHT!!! "CURRENT" Generation LMAOF...

And you start out NOT making excuses then go into EXCUSES...

Im not sure how Loma does at 135. Top Rank wanted him to face Beltran and he passed

You mistake overrated for not being among the best etc. I'm only responding to someone who speaks as if their gods,Rigo is just unlucky hes small,Loma is being hyped as top p4p fighter based on his claim to fame of only 8 fights with decent opponents 1 top opponent(Walters). I know Lomachenko is a elite fighter but lets stop acting like hes the finished product yet until he does a lil more,temper the hype hes getting which is way more than other fighters with better records.

Why is the GREAT ALL MIGHTY KING Lomachenko fighting a guy who just LOST every round and was knocked down also??? Ohh and Nicholas Walters dominated him???

This is NOT what GREATS do... This is what you do when you don't really believe in your guy or your hiding something.
