by the end of this year, if loma doesnt fight mikey or is not making any attempt to fight him, then yes, i'll call him out on it.

how long ago has spence been saying he wants thurman?

Loma is having shoulder surgery you idiot! You think he's coming back from surgery to fight Mikey Garcia?

[Bronx2245]

Vasiliy Lomachenko to have surgery on shoulder hurt in fight

Pound-for-pound king Vasiliy Lomachenko suffered a torn labrum in his right shoulder during his knockout of Jorge Linares to win the lightweight world championship on May 12 and will undergo arthroscopic surgery on Wednesday in Los Angeles, Top Rank promoter Bob Arum told ESPN.

Lomachenko told ESPN on Tuesday that he suffered the injury during the second round of the fight. He said his right shoulder popped out of place and then back in and gave him trouble for the remainder of the bout...

Arum, who was with Lomachenko and manager Egis Klimas at the exam, said that if there are no complications, Lomachenko will return to the ring in the main event of a Top Rank Boxing on ESPN card on Dec. 8...

According to Arum and Klimas, Lomachenko has had occasional pain in his right shoulder in the past but nothing severe.

"Every once in a while when he would spar, he'd have pain in the shoulder but then he'd ice it and then there'd be no problem," Arum said. "But this time it was different with the pain he was having in the fight and after the fight. So, obviously, Aug. 25 is out for his next fight and we're looking at Dec. 8. If the shoulder doesn't come around in time we'll have to postpone it, but we're looking at him being ready to go Dec. 8. But we know there are no guarantees."

Arum had hoped to match Lomachenko on Aug. 25 with fellow lightweight world titleholder Raymundo Beltran (35-7-1, 21 KOs), who won a vacant belt in February. Now, Beltran may defend his title against somebody else on that date and then, if he wins, meet Lomachenko in the unification bout on Dec. 8, Arum said.

and i stand by it. will you do the same for spence? he's been calling out for thurman for quite some time already.....

[WesternChamp]

Of course Spence Jr.'s people have made attempts to secure a fight with Thurman, Porter, and Garcia! They all have the same advisor, Al Haymon! You're just stuck on the double-standard! You can't explain why you fault Spence Jr. for NOT fighting Thurman, Porter, and Garcia, but you do NOT blame Lomachenko for NOT fighting Tank and Garcia! I have my su****ions on why you think like you do, but it's irrelevant!

can you post up links to where they tried to get a fight with thurman, etc? and im not talking about spence saying he wants thurman. im talking about a link to where they actually reached out to thurman, etc.

[_Rexy_]

by the time this fight is ready, Spence will no longer be able to make weight.

[bobd9842]

i like how this dude justify spence and crawford ducking each other but then goes and make claims like thurman and pacman doesnt want to fight spence and crawford. crawford and spence doesnt wanna fight each other lol!

Keep quiet Spanky....no one cares what you think. lol.

Keep quiet Spanky....no one cares what you think. lol.

apparently, you do

Crawford was fighting at 140 and has not had ONE fight at 147 yet so how can some of you say that Spence cannot be the best at 147 when he has been fighting and winning in that division. Spence has nothing to prove at 147 that he has not already done. If anything Crawford has to come up and demand to fight the best, in which I believe he wants the fight. The promoters know how dangerous Spence is for any smaller fighter. Hopefully the fight happens in the fall.

Got to agree with you. Crawford is untested and Spence is a proven Welterweight.

[JakeTheBoxer]

This fight will probably never happen. Spence is a huge 147 fighter, he will move up to 154 soon. Crawford is a new dude in this division, no chance that he follows Spence there.

Spence probably fights ocampo, Ugas, maybe Porter or Garcia and than moves up.
