Comments Thread For: Lomachenko Drops Pedraza Twice, Wins Decision To Unify Titles

[boliodogs]

I messed up and didn't get my vote in for Dogboe to win by KO. I voted for Loma by KO. I am sure of both picks. Hell, Loma is a 40 to 1 favorite.

Loma confirming what I have been saying in other threads for a while. That he isn't even comfortable at 135 now, but he'll be in a few years. The guy is strong at 130. Go back down! Mikey fight isn't happening.

Pedraza isn't a big lightweight so it is fine.

Loma's English is improving fast.

True, he is not a lightweight but 5 pounds isn't enough weight difference to worry about, He is a 40 to 1 betting favorite because he so much better. I doubt he will ever be a true lightweight because he is way past the age that men grow bigger.

I got Dogboe by mid round KO and Loma by wide UD.

Is anyone actually watching these mismatches.

[BLASTER1]

I for one will definitely be watching the Matrix do his thing at 11 Sunday morning Australian time.
Dogboe is a good fight to watch also.
Can't wait for tomorrow.

I don't think either of these fights are the extreme mismatches that some people believe they are.

I'll probably side with the favourites, but Loma, as good as he is, shouldn't be a 40-1 favourite over Pedazra. Pedraza is not a bum. I'm not so sure Navarette will be a walk in the park for Dogboe either. The Mexican has a big size advantage and has some decent talent although Dogboe should be much quicker. These aren't as safe "pick'ems" as they seem.

Having said all that...How many pick'em fights doing we have remaining this year? I still have three X3's. I gotta use 'em up quickly.

Lomas legacy fight is gone now that Mikey is gonna get destroyed by Spence and won’t ever be the same!

His only hope is for Tank Davis to clean out 130 and move up to 135 and get a belt and fight him cuz other than that there’s no one with the eye test of potential, fan base and backing that matches Tank Davis at 135 except Crolla fan base wise!

Dogboe isn’t a safe bet either, he’s very open defensively even tho he’s a mini juggernaut, I expect that fight to be very entertaining cuz Navarrete can bring it and has skills too!

Pedraza should get stopped around the 11th round unless he shows us something we’ve never seen before!

You do indeed. I was gonna send out another reminder to a few people, yourself included.... if you could cash those fuckers in for a beer on New Years' I'd say save 'em, but they ain't worth shit in another 23 days...

Right. We got 2 next weekend; Zurdo - Hart, and Canelo - Fielding. On 22nd we've got Warrington - Frampton and Whyte - Chisora (on account of the Heavies being a hot topic right now) for sure and I'm leaning towards doing the Charlo fights too, despite some (justified) scepticism over the competitiveness of the twins' fights.

Gonna close out the year with Budler vs Kyoguchi and Nietes vs Ioka from Macau on the 31st so it could very well come down to the wire.

So - what's that then, 8 more fights after this weekend? You got a bit of time, man, but I wouldn't wait too long...
