Damn Loma looks so small here. Cant wait for this fight. Both elite fighters and great human beings.

linares looks way bigger than lomachenko he should have no trouble with him after all lomachenko is only a 11 fight novice

Either you are brand new to boxing or trolling. Novice? You clearly have not heard of Loma before today.

Linares looks huge compared to Loma. I'm not sure if he'll use it though in the fight. If he levels out to Loma's height it'll be easy work. If he CAN use that height, I can't see how Loma wins this.

[Tricky-Pablo]

Loma will hit this guy all night until he quits like Quitondeaux, Walters, etc.

Linares is huge compare to Loma, i want to see how he wins this. If he wins too, P4P king no contest!

[Boxing Logic]

Damn the size advantage is way bigger than even I expected. I'm officially worried for Loma. Obviously Loma is better in a P4P sense but fighting fast powerful guys who are also way bigger than you is probably the hardest thing to do in boxing. If Loma is not big enough to get Linares respect, it could be Salido all over again when Salido was 11 pounds bigger in the ring, just with an even bigger, way faster opponent. Loma is going to have to box a masterpiece. I know haters will say "but Floyd fought bigger guys" except that's actually not true in this sense, Floyd never fought someone this much bigger than him who was also as fast as him, and was not put at numerous other disadvantages to take the sting out of him like a catchweight or selective drug testing etc etc. Floyd wouldn't even fight the fast guys in his division like Khan, let alone, say, Paul Williams at 154, or Sergio Martinez at 160, to give the closest comparisons I can think of from the crop that existed at 154 and 160 at the time. This is going to be difficult for Loma.

Did not know Arum was so small! lol

[FinitoxDinamita]

??? You didn't watch the lara Terrell Gausha undercard??? You missed out on some GOOD FIGHTS!!!

Charlo / Lubin??

Jarrett Hurd / Austin Trout???


And your on a boxing site...SMDH

Im sure you werent into boxing during the 90s.

You are comparing a once-in-a-blue moon stacked card against Don King whose events were regularly stacked from top to bottom.

Who gives a sht about Lubin-Charlo man? Yea that card was good but it’s really rare for promoters to stack cards like that.

Nothing can come close to what King did in the 90s.

[MrShakeAndBake]

Linares is a sharper dresser anyway. He won't win any kind of decision, but I think he's going to really test Lomachenko.

hah Loma is wearing luis vuitton, while linares is wearing some parot costume looking sweater lol ok buddy

[Dle]

Could Linares have the same advantages that Loma had on Rigo? All is fair in Karma.

[fourtheboys96]

I'm surprised Linares is this bigger than Loma considering both are former 126lbs champ.
I like both fighters. But I want to see Loma vs Mikey more than Linares vs Mikey.
