Lomachenko is HUGE FAVOURITE vs Linares according to Bookies!

Damn. I don't bet but I might put money on Linares.


This is going to be a tough fight.

So a near 7-1 underdog then?
I still wouldn't bet on Linares, the guy fights in a clean composed manner which I don't think that's how you beat Lomachenko, you have to be next level to beat Lomachenko at his own game because he does it so freaking good.
Unless Linares bring an entire new him to this fight and fight in an aggressive manner I really don't see him winning, but then we also have the problem with him fighting that way with the very weak chin that Linares has.

Odds are clearly against Linares for a good reason.

I’m confused at why people say Linares has a weak chin. Any basis to that other than him getting stopped twice in his long career?

I see a tough fight with some rounds tough to call especially early but 8-4 type fight for loma. but maybe with 1 or 2 rounds in the 12 that could go either way

It'll be Loma's toughest fight, but he'll come out on top as always

Loma is the best fighter on this planet

[#mandownESJR1]

it will be 100x better than what we got last night.

His chin is fine, he has weak tissue paper like skin though. Which is bad against a sharp accurate puncher.

I predicted Loma winning on a cuts stoppage when they announced the fight. Linares is going to get carved up like a Turkey.

You mean if you bet $100 on Loma, you only win $11 ( not $111 ) ?

Linares being 7-1 underdog is pretty long imo.
He has to be the liveliest 7-1 underdog ever. Damn, even Pac was not as bad as 5-1 underdog against Barrera the first time .
A draw might be a great bet on this one.

I think it has more to do with his sharp eyelid bones.
