Comments Thread For: Lomachenko Fever Sweeps Through The UK

[BangEM]

Yarde won 7 and 8 all right, case could be made for 5, because he started to get to Kova, and won the first minute and the very end of the round. But for the 1st 4 rounds he was just jabbed silly. There was no reason to give him 1 and 2.

Yarde won the first two rounds with those looping hooks he was catching Kovalev with at will. Kovalev didn't establish his jab until the 3rd rd.

But I've seen idiots claim Yarde only won the 8th rd. That's how ****** a lot of the so-called "boxing fans" are.

Luke Campbell also clearly won at least 4 rds on Saturday and two rds were very close. And Lomachenko clearly won 6 rds with a KD.

What an idiot. He's already moved up 3 divisions since turning pro. Yet, idiots like you always want more proof. You whine he doesn't move up, then point the finger and talk about how he's overrated when moving up affects his power and speed. You expect him to have both at same intensity and strength as when he first turned pro? What a clown you are.

[ShoulderRoll]

Right? I won't be sold on Terrance Crawford until he beats Usyk. Man up guys.

Usyk is 6 divisions and 53 lbs up from Terence Crawford. I don't think anyone is suggesting that Lomachenko do the equivalent of that.

Just that he use his talents on better challenges than Crolla and Campbell.

Campbell was ranked #3 in the division behind Commey and Lomachenko. Who was he gonna fight? For all intents and purposes, Commey is next. Moving down to 130 would get him **** on, since there are only two fighters down there worth fighting (David & Berchelt) and Davis will avoid Lomachenko until the end of time. So the only other option would be moving to 140 where there's a tournament, so he would be ridiculously undersized and still chit on for fighting the losers from the tournament since the top 3 are all either just coming off fights, or have fights scheduled.

Does anyone want to see Lomachenko vs Postol/Barenchyk/Relikh?

I don't think he should go to 140 because 135 seems to be his upper limit already.

But with his skills it would be nice to see him fighting better opposition. That's all most people are saying.

The winner of Commey vs Lopez will be good. Tank Davis just moved up to lightweight, maybe he will finally grow some balls and fight Lomachenko. Berchelt would also be a good opponent. Then there's Haney who might become a mandatory at some point.

always come here to the forum to laugh at the same old mugs hating on Lomachenko.

seriously this is funny af

Who though? People are saying he's ducking Tank, people are saying he's ducking Lopez. That's the furthest thing from the truth. Plus, there's no evidence that Lopez OR Tank are even better than Campbell. Neither of them have stepped up yet.

the problem is that good boxers look like amateurs against Loma

I hope Berchelt can show some mexican style. might be a problem for Loma but he's gonna make it.

Tank gonna wait till Loma is something like 35. And I doubt that Loma will accept this fight even at 35, only just to laugh at Tank&Floyd.

Haney, Lopez, yeah. Pretty sure they all come to Loma after Loma becomes Undisputed champion. He won't need to go for them. They all will come to him and he gonna show 'em all who's the BOSS here.

You don't sound bitter/bias at all British boxers are and for the most part, will be domestic level B- C+ type of fighters, you got, Yarde, Campbell, Charlie Edwards and probably Taylor will also lose to Prograis. Domestic C+ level fighters trying to belong in a sport of the elite, own 90% by boxers in the American continent.

What do you expect when you have the two ultimate groupies - Tony Bellend and Adam Smith - doing the commentary? At least, Carl Froch is Polish and he has never hidden his allegiance to Eastern European boxers, which is understandable. It's always funny how Paulie, who's American, is always the decent voice around those clowns.

Just imagine these idiots claiming that Luke Campbell won only one rd when he won at least 4 rds. They did the same with Yarde when Yarde won at least 4rds as well - 1, 2, 7 and 8.

So drunk on Loma’s Jizz that they forgot to watch
