Loma passes the eyeball test for sure! Special talent, needs to put it on his resume for him to earn his spot without him having to be shoved down our throats by the media. Just my two cents.

Is this the same roby who called lomabumko before the fight and now jumping and said loma has special talent?is this the same you roby?wow, wow...
Buahahahahaha....so ****ing funny..shame on you

One of those actually posted tripleposts above that link. What a doucvhbag sshole.

That thread was hilarious lol don't know how I missed that one. I gave up on trying to get some guys to think objectively about the fight. People didn't want to look at the facts. Everything about the sport's matchups isn't just personal opinion. Some people forget that. I was reminded of that fact with Canelo v. GGG. Won't forget it again.

At 135 Loma will still have a substantial speed advantage. Mikey has the power advantage. I think Loma will frustrate Mikey. He won't be standing there in front of him like Broner. I favor Loma to win this one by UD.

Speed doesn't really matter all that much when you're dealing with well-schooled fighters, especially with Lomachenko's style.

All that movement does is try to compel to an opponent to open up and make mistakes; Mikey puts that jab right on the sternum, and who knows how Lomachenko would react.

Me 2. Either way Mikey isn't some 48 year old 120lb midget

Is this the same ****** who so sure before the fight that rigo will not only win but if he lose it will never be ko/tko and loma win will be controversial?so what about quitting?is that better than ko/tko for you?now after rigo hope it will be mickey, and after loma toy with him, hope you never said something ****** again...learn boxing again son, you really need it..
Yeah ******, rigo are not walters/sosa, he was worst than both of them...its just so ****ing funny when i read your old post about loma...buahahaha...

Speed doesn't matter?

Tell that to Roy Jones opponents during his prime--good boxers such as Hopkins, Toney, Hill, had no answer.

Tell that to Pac's opponents during his prime--good/great boxers such as Barrera, Morales, JMM, Cotto couldn't neutralize his speed and reflexes.

A lot of fans and boxing insiders thought Russell Jr. Walters and Rigo would trouble Loma with their boxing skills. Didn't happen.

Mikey is a solid fighter with good counter-punching skills. But Loma is not Broner or Salido. He won't be standing in front of Mikey, and his punches have a cumulative effect. Not one-punch KO power but he will wear Mikey down and frustrate him over 12 rounds.

I actually would like to know what the casinos think the odds are.

These guys dont know what they are watching. All that flashy **** Lomachenko does like the exagerrated movement and pitty patty slaps only open him up especially to someone who uses rounds to figure out range.

Garcia's footwork isnt flashy or overplayed like what Lomachenko does, but he is always in position to defend, counter and parry.
Garcia sets traps Lomachenko probably wont even know hes being set up to walk into something, usually when opponents try to cross quickly through the distance Garcia's jab covers. Hell, Garcia throws out his jab and Lomachenko hesitates to go through it, Garcia wins on ring generalship, he doesnt even need to damage Lomachenko, he'll simply win by limiting Lomachenko's own aggression.

These "boxing fans" say timing kills speed, but in this convenient case, speed is unbeatable.

Because Mikey will be the big bully when they fight, just like Salido was. U gotta bully Loma if your gonna beat him, cause u won't out slick him or out quick him.

Fighters r quitting not because they can't find him, rather because they're scared of his countering power, so they became too scared to throw punches, but Mikey won't be .

Not sure why Salido is even brought to this debate. Loma lost to Salido , got better while Salido lost to Martinez who Loma destroyed year later. Mikey Vs Loma is good fight but lets not bring Salido into this like some how Salido blew Loma out of the fight , Salido won a split desicion fight based on Lomas first half of the fight and of course coming in much bigger and hitting in the balls. Loma is way better now

[DJrabit]

Mickey will do the same thing he did when he fought Salido . He will quit. Or maybe he will reject the offer so he can do Garcia vs Figueroa II.
