Comments Thread For: Mikey Garcia: I Can Stop Lomachenko, He's Not Invincible

[BillyBoxing]

Hopkins was a master at timing? That's a horrible example considering those 3 fighters also had incredible timing.. especially roy.. look at how fast khan was compared to garcia.. but eventually he got timed and destroyed.. spilka seemed faster that wilder.. even won most rounds.. until he got timed.. with one punch. An stretched..

Agreed but Loma also has at least "more than decent" timing.

I think when we talk about timing we also relate it to "counter punching"and Nard was a master at it.

You had some solid points.

But talking about horrible example, assuming Loma is on Spilka level defensive wise and Mikey bring some Wilder's power...

And not sure about Loma being china chin as Kahn...

Garcia is too laid back and economical to outpoint LomA imo. He isnt a killer and a hunter that alot of fans make him put to be. He would rather be a counter puncher than the one taking the initiative. If he fight patiently against Loma, he would lose quick.

That's right. Mikey's style is measured, calculated, bides his time. He can't win on points being the usual MG, but he does have the power to turn things around.

Conditioning, Loma's big on it.

Yea I think that's **** on. That rising intensity from Loma they can't stay with. I love how Loma gets faster and faster as the fight goes on and these guys just think "**** this, I'm outta here". Crazyass fitness.

Your on point bro with all your comments

I know bro, but I said ROy, Taylor and Calzaghe speeds killed Nard game.
So agreed with Roy but don't tell me Jermain fcking Taylor had better timing, counter punching than Nard.
Calzaghe wasn't a counter puncher, he overwhelmed cats with barrage of punches up and down.

I know Kahn was fast, but Khan has been koed 3 times, never recovered from KD except the Diaz fight. I think Loma ain't that china bruh.

Kahn, Spilka vs Garcia, Wilder, we talking about guys who had already been koed before those fights.

Your example are good, but I'm just saying Loma isn't as much there for the taking as those cats.

I am Lomachenko`s fan, but no, he hasn`t.

They both beat Roman Martinez. They bot fought Salido. Garcia did it much better against salido.

Rigo, Sosa, Walters are nice wins, but is is not "much better resume".

Loma beat Linares, Garcia beat Broner.

I see that as 60 -40 in Loma`s favor.

Garcia has bigger reach. Loma has superior skills.

Sorry but Linares, Russell, Walters and Rigo are better than any 4 wins on Garcia's career. No way around it.

I am talking resume not who beats who but I can say that Mikey has never fought anyone with movement close to what Loma possesses

[killakali]

Broner would make easy work of everyone on Lomachencko’s resume.

So would Shawn Porter. So would Marcos Maidana. What is your point? Broner is a 140-147 pounder.

Broner doesn't even have half the resume that Loma has or even the resume that Mikey has.

So if Loma beats Pacquiao then you are going to say that Pac would make easy work of everyone on Mikey's resume right? See how flawed your logic is? You are trying to say Broner would beat Gary Russell Jr LMAO. Broner is a welterweight and you want to say he can beat anyone Loma's resume. Guess what Anthony Joshua would beat everyone on Adonis Stevenson's resume. Deontay Wilder would beat everyone on Andre Ward's resume. Sergey Kovalev can beat everyone on Mayweather's resume. See how ****** you sound?

LOL!
I don't know if I'd toss a STFU out there, but yeah anyone who has watched Joshua fight numerous times knows that was just an unusual performance from him vs a guy who just wanted to survive. At times it's pretty much impossible to KO a 'survivor'.

[PunchyPotorff]

Mikey is right... Loma isn't invincible. I've seen some flaws in his game as well, and would imagine most fans would say the same. He is super talented, but Garcia I think has the tools to put in a great performance. Definitely a 50/50 fight and one I would luv to check out.

Great points, I appreciate reading that mate, except that you're ignoring a bit too much what Loma's bring to the table.

Loma will turn around Mikey, Mikey has slow legs, won't trap Loma like Linares did, Linares is a fantastic athlete with fast legs. Mikey will struggle to find Loma.

Linares could catch Loma like nobody ever did because his speed allowed him to do so.

I agree that Loma inside game won't work versus Mikey, he will have to bring something new, I'm sure he will along with his papa. We are talking about GGG and Abel.

We'll see about that won't we!

Mikey is too sound to be lost in the sauce with Loma's shifting, he will keep his lead foot light and his backfoot steady for the shifting!

He can step back and keep his position solid and make Loma come in or take the fight to him and go to his body!

Loma's options are to try use his speed and footwork and shifting angles to try an confuse Mikey but it won't work!

Mikey wastes zero movement, every thing he does is for a purpose!

He's either checking what you do and checking what you don't so he can set you up!

Loma's overconfidence will be his ruin!
