Buahahaha...i cant stop laugh on this

Haha there some biased ppl on here but that guy takes the cake haha

this Loma nutriding is reminiscent of Amir Khan's nut riding... remember Amir Kha ? Super quick dude seemed to be matrixing cats, whatever happened to him?

He didnt have tough chin. Loma,just moved up to win,belt in third division by getting off canvas, shaking it offand stopping the bigger guy. Lol settle down

I didn't think I had smoked THAT much last night, but the judges had this as a draw?

[_Rexy_]

The weight jump didn't slow down Loma at all. Still had his speed. Still has power, but lightweights can eat it better than the lower weights. No ones quitting on their stool anymore. They can take it. Loma needs to tread at this weight lightly.

It would make sense to next go for fellow beltholder Beltran. Old mans ripe for the pickings. Loma could beat Easter too. That guy looked less than impressive against Fortuna.

Light welterweight, Loma would lose there. That weights too big. He would do fine against the B class of that weight, but he'd get dropped by any top talent.

I agree, Loma should stay at this weight at least for a while. If he wants to move up, he should at least get experience staying at LW for a couple years and trying to become undisputed LW (If he's ready or not for Mikey is yet to be seen, it could have been a moment of arrogance where he was caught off balance, he jumped right off the canvas. But he also can't afford to make those kinds of mistakes.)

This...... mikey is slower than linares....and is not as good a combo puncher

Yeah, mikey solid and all but cant keep up with loma. Plus his power is comparable to linares. But doesnt have speed, quickness, and combos like linares has. Loved the fight last night though! Probably have unification fight next against beltran. Mikeys folks done said they dont want loma fight for yrs to come

If his ring IQ is so high, why does he constantly put himself in bad positions and make fundamental errors like he did tonight?

The biggest cause for concern I saw tonight is how easily he can be hit. Everybody, even history’s greatest defensive fighters can be hit with single shots. And as offensive minded as Lomachencko is, he’s gonna get hit some. That’s just part of letting your hands go. The biggest thing I saw was him getting his with combinations. And he was also getting hit when they were on the outside. Everything wasn’t a product of him being countered. Some of it was just him having his defense penetrated.

He figured Linares out, and made adjustments! That's what champions do! He started being first, and he stalked the bigger fighter! The setup for the liver shot was a thing of beauty! He did get hit, and I think Mikey hits harder than Linares, so that's a fight I'm very interested in!

Lol Not hating. I like Loma as a person. He seems like a good person and keeps it real. As a boxer though, he's honestly like a B-B+ boxer in my opinion. Nothing about his skill set is impressive. No power, No ring generalship, No game plans. The only thing decent about him is he's alittle fast. He makes too many mistakes to beat Mikey.

This...this man...really make me laugh loud And clear...buahahaha...no power, no ring generalship, no game plans?...buahahaha...lol,lol,lol

Not a chance, LINEAR P4P KING will f-ck Mikey up for good!!!

What does that even mean ? " **** him up For Good " ?

[Bronx2245]

Haha, 15 ..... You Americans love to exaggerate. I would give him a reserved 12

I would give Linares a reserved 12! After all, he made Loma look human last night! I have a feeling the WBA will do something ******, like order an immediate rematch, like they did with Hurd and Lara!

Linares looked like a Welterweight in there. He literally landed one lucky punch the entire fight. Linares face was all messed up too.
