Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Lomachenko Can Make More Versus Linares on HBO

[Ogecca MaMa]

Team GoldenBoy, Oscar De La Hoya flexing with da guap. Lomochenko needs the money too! This is why Lomochenko was begging TMT Tank Davis for a payday, but Tank was like nah, I'm on PPV dawg ; you can keep yo ass on ESPN.

lol. first of all - its your ****** boy that scared ****less to have a loss on his record.

second - its him, whos afraid he wont have enough money for the kfc meal

why lose to Loma and sell crack for rest of the life..

[rrayvez]

That's also a possibility....
But on another note. You said earlier if my boy Canelo takes a beatdown against Triple g,...
I don't see that happening.
I know you taking Triple g and I'm taking Canelo..
You care to make a friendly bet?

I was giving a hypothetical but, what's the bet?

Lomachenko is the new P4P #1 drama king. There's always some kind of drama when it comes to making his fights.

We're getting the "winner takes all" option next.

espn already guaranteed the 5/12 date. What are u talking about?

NBA playoffs??? If some gane 6-7 happens then what Einstein??? Or they run into OT??? Have the boxers wait???

Hahaha! Whoa! winning three round fencing euro-tournaments with headgear ; in 2018 Olympic amateur boxing that looks like the special Olympics! what a clown ass fraud! he probably beat on little 17 year olds like the great Cuban amateurs

-- I see why he wants to fight Gervonta now ; no wonder Salidoe walk through his ass when he introduced him into the pro ranks.

Salido got a split desicion for this weight advantage and dirty tactics and it was no walk through when you lose last rounds. you keep protecting lil ***** tank from Loma because now in your eyes Loma is a giant a giant who moved up to Tanks weight division. You make Tank more pathetic lol
Lil baby tank why does not Loma pick on someone more older and in higher weight division You cant wait till Loma moves up so puzzy tank can come out and ruffle his feathers like he is the **** but never forget he been exposed for the b1tch that he is. PERIOD.

Oscar's not telling the truth, but the rest of your points are valid.

Notice how I said "if." Oscar is a promoter, who learned from Arum, so you already know!

Wouldn't change the fact that ESPN needs a big fight on 5/12. And who knows if 5/26 works for ESPN even if TR had another big fight they could deliver 5/12.

So I guess we end up with Loma/Beltran. Which is unfortunate. I personally don't recognize the WBO and was looking forward to Loma fighting for a proper world title.

Man I agree with a lot of things you say but how can you not recognize the Wbo? Some of the best champions in the sport have the Wbo- Parker at heavyweight, Usyk at Cruiser, Kovalev at 175, Gilberto Ramirez at 168, Saunders at 160, Jeff Horn at 147 and soon to be Crawford who had the Wbo as his first belt at 140, Ray beltran is about to get the 135 lb belt, Lomachenko at 130, Valdez at 126, Magdalebo at 122, Inou at 115. Wba is a joke with 2 champions in each division and Ibf has the weakest champions for the most part. Sauliman has turned the Wbc into a joke as well, just look at what Stevenson has gotten away with

A complete waste of money for that exhibition in which Guillermo threw the fight, costing the sport fans like Walters. The networks are losing money obviously, the theater looked empty so we can rule out any substantial return at the gate that's for sure.

But when Tank fights, its a sold-out show. Billy Dib is a former world champion and Gervonat must get through him to reclaim the throne and his IBF jr. lightweight title.

Gervonta Davis is not even in his prime, so he can take his time to mature into this game. Davis position is incompatible to a aging Lomochenko whos been found out, by a brawler; in light of this your criticism of Tanks skills is laughable as we both know no Uber-Driver like Salidoe beats TMT Tank Davis, at any weight! A prime Salidoe gets KO by Davis, but KO's Lomachenko since the shot version took him to school.

You obviously have no idea what your talking about, loma rigo was sold out in 2 days. It was the 2bd most expensive ticket on the resale market. Hence why Lomas next fight will be at the main arena at Msg.

People are acting like Linares is the A side for whatever reason. He has been fighting on undercards for 250k in fights that only get 700k viewers. Meanwhile Loma got 2 million people to watch him destroy Rigo and got paid 1.2 mill making him one of the highest paid in the sport. Espn is giving Top Rank the May 12th date and Loma is the A side so if this fight cant get made Golden Boy and Hbo is to blame. Oscar shouldnt care anyways hes going to make a lot of money on the actual ppv not the replay. Besides Linares was fighting on undercards and now hes likely being offered a 7 figure career high payday by far and a chance to fight one of the biggest draws in the sport. Looks like Loma is fighting on May 12th regardless if its against Linares or not so Golden Boy would be wise to let Linares fight. If not then theyre screwing Linares out of a lot of money and recognition.

If Loma Linares cant get made because Golden Boy wont allow it then it looks like Beltran will be the opponent. People forget Beltran was considered the 2nd best lightweight a couple years ago when he got robbed against Burns. He should have been Wbo champ way back then. Hes only lost to Crawford since then and has 4 knockouts in a row. Beltran vs Linares would be a close fight in my eyes

I can't tell if this is serious or not. What is some of the "best" champions mean? Parker loses to the other two champs, Kov just lost twice in a row, Saunders is the weakest beltholder at mw, Horn the weakest at ww. Beltran will be the worst at 135. These guys have no right to have any belt.
