Comments Thread For: Lomachenko is Out Indefinitely With Labrum Surgery

Its always good to get these things taken care of before they get worse, a lot of athletes get pain killer addictions when they put off surgery for years.

And he still looked good and got the finish. Hopefully he makes a full recovery.

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?

In other words... LINARES WINS

Cuz you imply Pacquiao didnt have surgery.

He probably had shoulder issues before finally injuring, he put it off. Right now is the best time, he can rest and recoup, if he were to wait it coukd get worse he is at his prime now and will peak in two years so best do it now so you are in good condition.

No boxers of the old days were jacked up on *******, heroin, opiods, pain killer stuff, they went into fights injured because they had no choice but to fight, many would fight four to five times a month and while injured and concussed. But they kept their ailments secret for fear of losing an opportunity to make fifty bucks to put food on the table.

Loma should retire now and let the best fighter beat each other up. Then when they all have lost some step he can finally come back from hiding and beat all of them through slick running and hugging.

When he beat all of them, he can call him self TGFE - The Greatest Fighter Ever

[sportbuddha]

So he beat Linares with one arm, impressive!

LOMA the new GGG.. overrated fraud

[sportbuddha]

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
