Am I the only one who was NOT impressed by Lomachenko's performance?

    He got hit more against Linares because Linares is a way better fighter and that fight as a whole was way more skilled. You want to see Lomachenko in a competitive skilled fight where he overcomes size disadvantage and everything, you go with Linares fight

    You go with Sosa and Martinez fights if you want to see Lomachenko absolutely dominating decent level of opposition and if you want to see variety of his offense

    What's the reason of watching Pedraza fight if you want to see the best of Loma other than 11th round?
    You called it his worst performance. I disagree with that.

        Let's just agree that fights that I've offered to OP are way better showcase of Loma's skills and Pedraza is not the fight to base an opinion on Loma

          Tank got no credit for beating Pedraza, now that he fights Loma it's different. He's this great top 5 fighter.

          Also, people are influenced by commentators, they see what's happening in a fight but let commentators tell them it's a shut out and they believe it.

          I believe Loma is clearly the most skilled pro boxer in the world, but 135 is not his ideal weight class, these guys are just too big for him to dominate.

          I still will say he deserves props for continually jumping up in weight and prior to moving up he was nearly flawless as a boxer.
          Pedraza was actually a decent name for Tank. The problem I had was with Pedraza looking a bit drained and fighting ******ly. Not to say Tank wouldn't have beaten him anyway, but I think a better version of Pedraza stepped in the ring with Loma. He gave a good account of himself, but Loma is just on a higher level.

          I would like to see Commey vs. Pedraza.

            Im certainly no big fan of Loma but he recently had surgery and its only his 2nd fight at the weight and he got the job done

            Think fans are too tough on fighters performances these days no fighter in history has looked his best in every fight and unlike a lot of sports who compete 30+ times a year you only get 2 or 3 chances a year in boxing to shine the important thing is winning

              Walters always was a B class fighter, he was famous because he K.Oed a small Nonito

              Rigo was too fu.cking small.

              Linares is a good win but nothing great.

              Russell is the only great win.

              Loma does not know what means world class fighter

                He’s lucky he wasn’t fighting Tank Davis last night. Tank would have crushed him last night.
