Comments Thread For: Arum: Unlike Mayweather, Lomachenko Closes Shows, Destroys Foes

[Chuckguy]

Arum must be senile cause Floyd destroyed the likes of Chico and gatti. Pretty boy was a killa

[PunchyPotorff]

Typical name drop by Bob Arum. You know what else separates the two??? Floyd doesn't have a loss...

Floyd is talented, no arguments there, but it's flat out ridiculous for you to make a completely ignorant comparison like that. Lomachenko got his first title in fight #3. Floydie didn't get his til fight #18. And BTW, have you ever seen Floydie fight anyone who had that big of a weight advantage over him come fight night? Geez man, don't be a complete eee-diott.

[PunchyPotorff]

Floydie is a great fighter, but Lomachenko is more complete. And it took Floydie 15 more fights to get his first belt. If the two were closer in weight and age, Lomachenko would do a number on Floydie. Meanwhile, at this stage of Vasyl's career, he is more exciting to watch. Floydie was fighting way down the bill at fight #9. Lomachenko is headlining. For a reason.

It would be interesting to see if Lomachenko can KO guys at 140 and 147, which is the equivalent of where Floyd ended his career and where his power was taken better.

Hell if Loma can Gatti someone at 135, that would be amazing. Gatti was the #1 ranked JWW and the WBC champ. 135 would be equal to Floyd fighting at 140.

Who the hell has he destroyed apart from Rocky Martinez? I think the opposite his fights are far too prolonged and boring considering the skill gap.
Tonight probably won't be an exception either.

1st would put $$$$ ON Mikey Garcia to beat Loma while you would STFU and say or DO NOTHING!!!!

2nd Mayweather lost by a controversial decision (similar to Roy Jones Jr.'s highly controversial decision loss to Park Si-hun at the 1988 Summer Olympics).[32] Referee Hamad Hafaz Shouman of Egypt mistakenly raised Mayweather's hand (thinking he had won), while the decision was announced giving the bout to the Bulgarian

3rd...

Ill put Money on Loma, how much do u want?

[boxingitis]

"He outboxes anyone around his weight. From 126-135."


Where have we heard this BS before??? I would bet $$$$ On Garcia @135 AND I would BET Rig. at 126 (He seems to always go life and death with Cubans)... With a weight drained Loma even with Rig. moving up.

Whenever Loma and Mikey fight Ill bet you.

[Raggamuffin]

Arum and King are fossils. I'm surprised someone gave Arum a mic. Hell they are giving Hearn a mic so go figure.

[Shadoww702]

Whenever Loma and Mikey fight Ill bet you.

Deal! And any amount you willing to lose..

Floydie is a great fighter, but Lomachenko is more complete. And it took Floydie 15 more fights to get his first belt.

Mayweather turned pro at 19.
Lomachenko turned pro at 25.
