Comments Thread For: Lomachenko is Out Indefinitely With Labrum Surgery

Speedy recover.

Damn thats sh^tty timing. Thought we were gonna get a active Loma & now we got an injured Loma. This dude is never fighting 3 times in a year again lol. Although I guess if he's fighting the caliber of guys he's fighting in his last couple fights then its a 2 fight schedule he's on anyway.

It was obvious something was wrong. I noticed he kept shaking his arm during the fight, including the early rounds.
They were also icing the shoulder as early as the second round.

I was hoping it wasn't that serious and he would still get to fight in August, but it's better to get it fixed as soon as possible and it looks like he may be ready for December.

That is some boss stuff right there. Injured shoulder and still took out the Lightweight Champ in his first fight at Lightweight. In a fight that could end up being the Fight of the Year.

LOMA the new GGG.. overrated fraud

In other words... LINARES WINS

This either was meant to be sarcastic (but lacking context to make sarcasm more understandable, a bit too understated, if you ask me) or you are being..well, not very bright

Not good, i think it's especially important for him to be active due to the high focus on rhythm and timing.

So he'll have a warm up in December and no intriguing fight until May next year.

Serious question: my sense is that there are more injuries in modern boxing than years gone by - do you agree?

More performance means more things breaking, training today is so advanced on the old ways leaving the body more refined like a Formula 1 race car and off course easier to breakdown, elite Racehorses and track and field athletes are in the same boat.

I’ve been wondering for a while now why people hate Loma soo much? This is a serious question. I just see a very talented guy, once in a generation type talent, he isn’t protected, given his time in the pro ranks he goes after titles and has an exciting style (which is rare nowadays) and he seems a pretty straight forward guy out of the ring. Is it because of his country of origin or being white or something? I’m perplexed

Shhhh...you'll be labeled racist by some idiots here for suspecting racism in others.

That said, I don't get this lack of credit either. Seems completely unfounded. But hey, there is a genious on this thread who said that "LOMA the new GGG.. overrated fraud".

Loma is a 2 time Olympic gold champion and 3 division world champion in 12 fights. But nah, not good enough. Maybe once he beat AJ, people would give him the props. I wish those with such "high standards" realize that they completely obliterate their own credibility with these kind of statements. Not to mention that any decent amateur, even no Olympic medalist, would put these couch Rambos to sleep in the first round.

Terrible news, hope he has a fast and full recovery. His fights are always something special to watch.
