Comments Thread For: Report: Lomachenko-Linares Fight Finalized for May 12 at MSG

[Willy Wanker]

Arum was just pretending to negotiate the Linares fight in order to make Loma-Beltran though. He only does in house fights! Just like Loma-Rigo! And Ramirez-Imam! Loma is ducking Rigo! And Linares! This is obviously fake news!

Loma left 130 to duck Berchelt and Tank Davis!!!

THIS FIGHT WILL NEVER HAPPEN!!!!

cherry picking division jumping fraud. hes just broner for trump fans

[Bronx2245]

much younger? loma fought him the next year. also look what he has done since...mikeys 4 belts but against who? if loma wins hes going to have elite wins in 3 classes. no lipinets here

GRJ and Linares are elite wins! Rigo @ 130...uh, NO!. Elite name, wrong weight and time. Still a good win though. I'm slippin'! Didn't realize that the Salido Mikey beat, was basically the same Salido that smacked up Loma. My bad!

Can you not read? I was playing round saying that Loma still has plenty of fights to match ANTHONY JOSHUA, not TC, in how many undefeated fighters he has defeated by a certain amount of fights/time. AJ has 20 fights and Loma has 11. TC already has 32, so he can't do it anymore.
Anyways, you missed the point.

2018 Beltran is World Champion, was 2014 Beltran World Champion? Beltran wasn't a great fighter in 2014 either, so let's not make it out to be a great win back then. He is a decent fighter. Nothing more, nothing less.
2014 Gamboa was coming off a year lay off. I'm just going by other people's standards of activity. If an 11 month lay off is bad, Walters, then a year layoff has to be worse. Not exactly Gamboa's best moment in his career was it? Gamboa fought once in 2013 and didn't look amazing. He fought once in 2012 and didn't look great either.

I'm not even arguing P4P here. P4P is subjective. It's also imaginary. I just don't like how people say Loma's resume is "lacking," but then big up Crawford's.
Loma will seperate himself soon. Crawford isn't getting Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter, or Keith Thurman before Errol Spence.
Loma has more options at 135 and 140.

"Loma will seperate himself soon.." Until then, Crawford above Loma in my P4P! ESPN needs to apologize! I am a Lomachenko fan, don't get it twisted! He's the best I've seen since Mayweather, but even Floyd wasn't ranked Ring P4P#1 until 2005! He fought in the 1996 Olympics. You do the math!

I don`t wanna hear excuses when Loma stops man from higher division.

Well, you might want to stay off this forum until at least his next fight is signed because it will get ugly. Like the Rigo fight there were awful threads daily about what Rigo was going to do and the same posters then started threads discrediting it daily.

Oh booyakasha! Another win for Oscar! Loss for Arum! How exciting! Should we celebrate?

I mean, I'm going to celebrate the fighting getting made. You can celebrate Oscar's "win" though if you like. I'm a boxing fan, you're a negotiations fan I guess.

I'm happy that I won't be having two switch channels and can enjoy both fights in their entirety.

Sorry if that bothers you.

I remember hearing things like break Lom's jaw, mash in the side of his face, etc. I actually saved all those responses with bookmarks and then I replied after the fight calling them out on those responses.......never got a reply back. They probably cried rivers of tears and drowned in them.

I'll keep calling out Crawford's resume in the meantime.

can't wait for this fight

i expect it to be very interesting. this is gonna be the fight that fans expected from Loma-Rigo - battle of two technicians.

Linares is a great boxer, very smart also and naturally bigger than Loma. he's higher and have bigger reach. pretty sure he gonna weight more than Loma in the ring.

this is a new challenge for Loma and it will be much harder comparing to his title fight against Martinez @130.

i think he'll be P4P #1 if he win against Linares

Really???? Man you are another level of hate

It's not hate, it's insanity.
