And we get Sadam Ali vs Beefy Smith on the same day!

oh yea!? thats wassup should be a decent scrap

[BrometheusBob.]

so after loma schools linares, will there be any argue about him being number 1?

Probably, but not from me.

If Loma beats Linares he will already have a better win at Lightweight than anything Crawford has...

True. I think he will beat Linares, Beltran and Campbell within the next 12 months and hold the WBO, WBA, WBC & Ring titles. That will be solid no matter how you slice it and on top of what he's already done really put his career at a high level.

Waste of Loma's time, except maybe for the money. Linares is (below) average at best.

I actually think this goes the distance and Linares wins rounds unless his face gets cut up. I see a 117-111 type fight.

I doubt it but I hope you're right. The fight will be more exciting that way

[otrocubiche]

I hope Linares comes to fight and doesn't quit with a scratch in the wing like the previous chicken.

Commey would be the tougher challenge but this isn't a bad fight.

Should be good.

I was at that fight. He was looking good and dominating and then his face exploded.

[Eff Pandas]

Nice. Good fight to make, but ultimately I think this is gonna be Loma vs Rigo II minus the quitting maybe. I don't think Linares will be able to hang with Loma.
