Comments Thread For: Crolla: I've Earned This Shot At Lomachenko, Wasn't Given To Me

[lparm]

Is Lomo still the wba champ?

[Andre_parker1]

hate to break it to you playa but this merry sweet dreams of yours will turn into a swansong when you step into the ring with the matrix

[just the facts]

Lomachenko v most boxers is a pointless exercise!
Crolla will lose, but he has earned his shot at the title!

If he doesn’t fight Lomachenko then he’s ducking him, when he does then people slate him for it. Can’t win

How exactly did Crolla "earn his shot at the title"?

Garbage fight and total mismatch.

A pointless exercise. Anthony Crolla is at best European-level. Very limited fighter who won a paper "regular" title off a terrible "champion", and made one defence against an even worse challenger. The fact that Crolla can call himself a "former World champion" epitomizes what is wrong in boxing today with way too many "titles" knocking about. Expect Vasyl Lomachenko to win easily without leaving first gear. Look at it like this; if Crolla fought the 10 opponents Lomachenko has, Crolla would likely be 1-9 or 2-8.

Lomachenko can easily just win the fight but, IMHO, he will try to show the sweet since of the game. And it depends on Crolla whether it will be spectacular fight or no. If he decides to fight it will be nice fight but Crolla may not see the final bell. If he choose to play defensive and throw here and there just to show he still there it will look more competitive because Lomachenko will be going forward letting be hit more but making bought much more entertaining, like in Pedrasa fight or Linares. At least, it won't be looking like bigger guy running all night from smaller.

he is going to light Crolla up for fun

Loma knows he must make a statement, and he has never been afraid of mixing it up to make a exciting fight.

After the first Salido fight, Loma beats him 10/10 and I’m a huge Salido fan.

He has dominated every other fighter since, many very dangerous. Walters, Russell, Linares, Rigondeaux, Martínez.

Crolla earned the fight based on boxing today, and Loma has earned a soft touch after consistently fighting the best.

Loma is very proud, he will fight a legit world Champion after this guaranteed. Loma understands his time is short and the average attention span of the boxing game is even shorter.

We should all support Loma and hope a Mikey, Tank or Benchelt fight happens next.
