    Lomachenko fans need to be careful now before they jinx him. They are very vocal about Mikey Garcia and Tank supposedly being scared of loma.

    Just remember history repeats itself.

      Depends with how the fighter deals with fear. Nigel Benn once stated that? He would have a element of fear up against Roy Jones, but that would make him be up for the fight even more. Nigel Benn also meant to be afraid of Gerald Mcclellan.

        Well most of the time the A side is seen as the scared one (wrongly)...while in reality they also have all the home town advantages and get gifts so they win more often.

        This is the case for Ward vs Kovalev 1 and GGG vs Canelo...they won because they always get the benefit of the doubt in a close fight when in reality the majority of the fans had the other guys winning.

        But yeah Danny-Mathysse and Pacquiao-Floyd are better examples

          After the "scared" fighter loses people then come up with excuses as to why their guy lost.

            most of the fights you mentioned were dubious decisions that the a-side won because they were the a-side. you could just as easily say have you ever noticed the scared side wins dubious decisions when they finally fight their boogeymen. its like they get extra points for finally accepting the challenge lol. also what about all the fights that never happened because they didn't want to fight?

                We all know you're one of those guys who always ends up on the wrong side of history. You always make claims that so and so is scared. But then that guy ends up winning

                It breaks your little heart and then you live in denial and come up with excuses. Just don't jinx Loma now

                  Pac ducked and had his promoter come up with excuses for years.
