Comments Thread For: Lomachenko: 135 Is Not My Ideal Weight Category Right Now

He's smart for staying there. Fighters routinely go up two or more weight classes on the day of the fight, so a move to 140 means he will be fighting guys who are 154+ on fight night. Mikey walks around at 165.

"Lomachenko was ahead on one scorecard (86-84), down on one scorecard (86-84) and even on the third card (85-85) when he stopped Linares" What the ****?

Must be Canelo's cousin.

You’re such a nutthugger that if you read the article he’s clearly said he’s staying there. Wonder if Mikey will now focus on moving up again no Loma said he’s at 135 to stay? Probably since Mikey’s a gutless chicken.

I think you and I are the only people that believe Loma will school Garcia. It will be easier fight than Linares. Linares offensively was very good and has exceptionally fast hands and quick feet. Mikey in comparison is a tortoise. Mikey has exceptional timing I will give him that and solid fundamentals but he has operated at a luck lustre pace and because his opponents don’t have a brain cell between them they have never pushed the action knowing he has suspect Stamina.

Loma will hit Mikey for fun and get out of range with ease.

This is why he loses to Mikey. Great "big guy" thing. He wont be suprising Mikey with anything and Mikey is the BIG guy in this fight.

scuuured!! loma knows a mikey or pac fight could be up next lol..

[MrShakeAndBake]

Already making excuses for when mikey taxes that azz!!

Wtf u talking about rookie, Lol Mickey is terrified and ran for the hills into higher weight division. Loma King of 135 is running this **** now.

Reality hit. Arum is serious about making loma mikey.

" uh uh uh, 135 isn't my best weight. I'm still growing into it"

Haha. Lomachenko is already having Salido flashbacks

In other words, he ducked Pacquiao at 140 because he felt he was too small.

The Pac fight had a chance but that's over with now. Loma is safe - he'll get that Crawford protection.

Yeah it’s just a mess for Mikey styles wise. He’s a lot slower and more predictable than Linares and styles make fights. There’s a reason Mikey ducked Linares twice. I genuinely think Mikey won’t be able to handle adversity hence his choice of opposition. Notice how as soon as Salido turned it up on him and he got a chance to get out he did right away?
