Comments Thread For: Lomachenko Claims He'll Still Return 8/25 After Shoulder Surgery

[chrisJS]

So is he ducking someone or is he coming back to get deliberately injured and duck someone else?

Surprised that I haven’t seen the usual morons claim that yet.

[Randall Cunning]

Chance of Bob offering the mandatory lad a step-aside deal/undercard fight and doing Loma-Beltran instead?

Im sceptical he'll actually come back so soon. If he does I imagine he'll be fighting Yordan

[Corelone]

This is not lawn darts we're talking about. I'm thinking it's worse than he's admitting. What commission will let him fight like that? Who would insure such a catastrophic pre condition? If he gets hurt, it would surely come up. Those must be some good pills.

If you watch after second round in the corner of the Linares fight you could see Loma telling his father his shoulder was hurting. So I dont think this is a made up injury. It probably wasn't as bad of a tear.

i did watch the fight live only once..didnt notice...but ill take your word for it...i believe ya

[VatoMulatto]

I understand the surgery he underwent to repair a damaged shoulder was successful but this was QUICK recovery. I thought they said this type of injury would take some time to heal and Loma was going to be out until December, but he's already back in training and is scheduled to fight next month. Remember, that surgery took place just 6 weeks ago.

Why make up an excuse in a win in which he knocked the other man out? You're reaching bro

he was knocked down and the fight was very close at the time of the stoppage

when you factor in the fact that espn is trying to make him one of the faces of their boxing program and its bob arum...its not out of the realm

others say they noticed him complaining in between rounds...i believe them....im just saying...with bob arum its always fishy...especially when you saw with pac it was obvious BS

[daggum]

lets see if he has the stones to fight lipinets like mikey did

[Ajvar]

Guys, RELAX. He is coming back to sparring sessions, not real fight. Most likely we will see a photo of him and some well known gatekeeper of higher division being in protective helmets in the ring.

At some point I agree. but Pac aint no Loma. that guy was crying right after the loss. he was praying for fight with Floyd and was using every "excuse" he could in order to fight him. and once they did and he lost, mastah..my shoulder hurts. mastah says this, master says that... Pac is fine in my books but Loma on another level. especially knowing him personally

Fake surgery, lets not act like we've never seen this in Boxing before.



Lomo said he's had this injury for a while, but now it's in the Linares fight: NOT TRUE.

Shoulder popping out of socket from a torn labrum: NOT TRUE. Lomo would have shown signs of this in the fight because it hurts like a bítch.

You can have a DISLOCATION, but thats far different that popping out of the socket. Thats more of a ligament issue.



We all know Manny's shoulder surgery was fake, interesting it's the same doctor. Just because you're a doctor doesn't mean Jack Shít. Michael Jackson hired a doctor to dope him up 24/7. If you got enough money, you can buy anything.

Just some sleaze doctor for hire, right, got it.
