    Can Lomachenko be a star?

    Yesterday i saw great reactions on twitter of this fight. Casuals love Loma. Also UFC fanboys seem to love Loma, a lot of comments of how Loma is the best thing they ever saw and how they he got them to watch boxing again. If you watch his twitter he has a steady rise. During the Rigo promotion he was around 60k followers now hes has grown to 120k after this fight with a good amount of fan interaction on his page.

    You forgot to put how actual boxing fans love watching Loma.

      If he's the best they've ever seen, then they haven't watched much boxing, but that goes without saying. The same can be said for any casual boxing fan that just started watching in the Mayweather era. I'm sorry, I'm just not impressed with guys fighting twice a year. And that goes for anyone

        If he were a welter or heavier then "Yes, absolutely!" as an undersized lightweight, I'm not so sure.

          Definitely a future ppv star if he makes the right decisions.

              I heard a few casual fans talking about the fight so he's gettting there. If he keeps winning in the way he did last night he will be a star.

                People keep comparing him to Floyd and Pac lmfao but naw i dont see it.

                He dont have the “ it “ factor to be a worldwide star

                  Yes I think he will be a star. Hes already getting there. Arum made a smart move moving these guys to ESPN. Loma has a lot of charisma too unlike Crawford so that helps.

                    Yeah there was talk from casuals about the fight over here in the UK. He Needs a rivalry I think to take it to the next level though.
