Comments Thread For: Linares: Lomachenko Has Been Protected, Let's See What He Got!

[Johnny_Roa]

you still getting fcked up Linares

[Citizen Koba]

His last few fights, a small Rigo moving up two weight divisions, a featherweight Mariaga coming off a clear loss to Oscar Valdez, a club fighter Jason Sosa who a few fights earlier was soundly beaten by Walters, who himself was coming off a huge layoff to fight Loma and hasn't fought since.

Outside of Gary Russell Jr. - he has a long list of real crappy wins.

I ain't gonna get into an argument about the quality of guys he did fight, cos you can pull apart any resume if you choose... I'm curious to know who Jorges thinks he didn't fight though.

To be protected surely you've got to be being protected from someone. Berchelt maybe? That's about the only name I can think of that people might have thought Loma still needed to fight at 130, and Jorges himself is currently #1 at 135, so it's hard to see what Linares is talking about here.

Ha ha - well I like Jorges, but I can't really understand who exactly he thinks Loma has been protected from.

Protected from what?? The guy fought the worst possible style match-up in his second fight.

Rigo who many fans said he was ducking and that rigo was going to break his jaw and destroy him etc.- probably even you...made him quit in 6 rounds lol

Walters who many fans said was going to destroy him...Loma again made you haters eat your words and made him quit...neutralized the "axe-man"

Sosa who knocked out Fortuna, who just put a whooping on the so called-Ducked champion Robert easter who you are probably a big fan of. Also a champ

Russel Jr- also a good fighter many people thought was going to beat Lomachenko- Loma schooled him.

Marriaga who went to war with one of the best featherweights in the world, Valdez...Loma toyed with him and made him quit. Marriaga was also a solid fighter

Now he is facing the consensus #1 Lightweight in the world to become 3 division champ in 12 fights...

Now let your hate continue, he's far from protected

Yes, terrible resume even for an 11 fight novice.

Yeah they pampered him fighting a rugged mexican world champion who plays headbutt and low blows his 2nd pro fight lol

WTF are you talking about? Sosa fought Smith 5 months before the Loma fight? Do you just repeat bs rhetoric haters say? Sosa came from his biggest win KOing Fortuna who just got robbed against Easter. Walters layoff is the same most fighters take time off Gamboa was in he same lay off situation when he fought Crawford. Rigo is small yet so many said he would break Lomas jaw. and Marriaga against Valdez and against Loma showed the level difference between the fighters and was only pt in as a replacement for Salido.

Protected? I'd go as far to say there's not been a fighter in history who's been less protected than lomachenko . Fought for a world title in his second fight and fought Walters rigondeaux and Russell Jr within 10 fights.

this comment is so laughable, haters always forget that before the bell Loma vs Walters was a 50/50 fight so was the Rigonduex fight. And you wrote about fighters moving up to fight loma, Isn't Loma just move up to SFW in june 2016? Why you left-out that fact??

Or Maybe you are the same with Larry and co. I remember Larry comment about loma which is "if loma doesnt want to fight the big fishes he shouldn't swim so deep" in reference to Loma holding a belt and P4P rank those he should stop ducking other champs in his division, but then a month later gervonta davis have his belt but Larry and co feel davis is too green to fight Lomachenko. The hypocrisy

I'm a pragmatic guy, i always feel in order to have Long and ilustrious ATG career a fighter should have 10-15 bums in their resume. Is not shameful, Floyd/Manny/SrL and many others ATG did just that.

Linares is a good boxer. It sucks that one of them has to lose, but this will be a pure beauty of a fight to watch. Can't wait for the fireworks in the ring! This is one fight where I can't decide who to cheer for. Probably both of them
