    I think Loma just gave Hearn the message loud and clear - 'undercard of Joshua fight, and you got me'.

    IF Usyk and Joshua were to tango, then almost guaranteed Loma will be on the card, fighting whoever.

      I like how Eddie has signed Usyk.

      That’s the next phase in boxings evolution over here. If we can one day get two foreign fighters headlining a card like happens in the states.

      But yeah there’s no one for Loma from a Brit standpoint

      Usyk has Bellew, Whyte, and Joshua to go through if wanted. He’s made the right decision

        I wouldn't mind a Campbell fight, but only if Campbell can get a World title before the fight. Whether it's the WBC or the WBA regular, just get a title. Who knows what Mikey wants to do, but he has only defended his WBC belt once in two years. Maybe Campbell will be able to fight for the WBC, while they make Mikey the emeritus champion. Can't keep giving Mikey breaks. Other fighters would have been stripped.
        The Crolla fight is just a big no. Crolla would be a good opponent for Campbell if anything.

        Loma said he is still open to fighting at 130. I said before the Linares fight that maybe Loma should try to fight at 130 and 135 at the same time. Doesn't sound like the greatest of ideas, but it would give him more options.
        Top Rank, of course, wanted Christopher Diaz to get the WBO 130 belt, which didn't work out too well.

        Loma's main focus should be 135, but I wouldn't mind seeing Loma challenge Berchelt at 130. Especially if Berchelt can unify at least one more title at 130.
        Who knows if Berchelt is planning on moving up to 135 anytime soon, so maybe Loma can challenge at 130 instead.

          Crolla and Campbell for Lomachenko? Laughable, to say the least. That would almost be on the level of the Rigondeaux vs Jazza ****ens farce.

            Good on him, he needs to make the most of what is left of his prime. He can't afford to squander it on B-level no-hopers or non-titlists. Of course if no one else wants to fight him he may need to take one of these fights to stay busy.

                If campbell was to fight loma it eould purely be a cash out. As loma would ruin him and as for crolla he just needs to re match ricky burns thats his current level

                  Good for him! 30 years old he aint got time for this BS non-title holders trying to make a name off him. Not worth wasting a camp on.

                    Hopefully Teofimo Lopez continues to rise in the WBA rankings, and we get Loma vs. Lopez in 2020!

                      I watched the interview. He can’t be too far from fighting them if they’re both in title eliminators but I don’t want to see Crolla get brain damage. Campbell has a chance of a credible loss.
