Comments Thread For: Linares: Lomachenko is an Elite Amateur - But He's Still Learning

[Free0001]

Very interesting analysis except GRJ did not, in any way, outbox Lomachenko. I am not sure what u saw that would lead u to believe that but I would be interested to hear. Peace.

You're right, in the sense that Loma's style eventually overwhelmed GRJ, as it has with 99.9 to arguably 100% of his past opponents. My real point is that you can take the slickest boxer with mad speed and good power, and he/she will statistically speaking, lose to Loma's Hummingbird Style, every time.

Masters of Checkers can't compete with Masters of Chess; Checkers players need to learn how to play Chess, if they hope to dethrone the Chess king. Make sense?

Better yet, develop a higher form of Chess and make the Master look a fool, like Loma does with these traditional boxers...

I'm not sure Linares has the style or the attributes to beat Lomachenko, Linares is a good technical figgter but I don't think he'd beat Loma in a boxing match skill for skill and I think he's not the type of fighter that knows how to really get down and dirty and use his size to neutralize Lomachenko' skill and speed and wear him down, Linares is also a bleeder and Lomachenko will definitley land on him so he might swell and cut by the mid to late rounds where he could actually have an advantage over Loma.

I have to favor Loma in this one and hopefully we can see him fight Mikey next.

Hummingbird Style...hmmm very interesting. I consider him to be more of a Hummingbird/Mongoose/Mosquito hybrid

Linares is only making himself look bad by suggesting that he's reached his ceiling where as Loma has not considering Loma has performed at a higher level vs superior opposition.

Sounds like just another ******ed excuse to discredit Lomas incredible boxing skills

It was actually a great analysis by the bloke, you are a walking embodiment of ******ation.

GRJ outboxed lomachenko.

Lmao.

People saying a young Floyd could beat lomachenko. How?

Floyd has never fought anyone like Loma. His main offense is legit neutralized by what lomachenko does on a normal day. How is he gonna pull counter someone who doesn't commit on punches? How is the gonna use the Philly she'll when Loma would just side step it?

If Floyd was to neat Loma it wouldn't be with skill. It would be with size.

If time travel were possible, 130lb Floyd vs. 130lb Loma is one of the fights I'd make.
