I'm not as confident as he is

Really excited to see Loma back in the ring again.
Get ready for greatness.

I believe Linares will give Lomachenko a much tougher fight than people think. He's bigger with great speed and outstanding combinations, has great footwork and has been facing elite opposition for years now. The one weakness he has is his face cuts easily. It used to be that he faded, but since he changed trainers and diet 6 years ago that hasn't been the case (amazing what that does to a boxer).

This has a potential to be a FOY candidate.

I believe the first half of the fight will be fairly close especially Linares with his fast hands but as the Fight Continues I see Loma taking over and winning by a decision...

[semisto]

Loma will school him like others

All good points and should be a fantastic fight. It's good to hear Linares talking so positively. I see Lomachenko winning.
