Comments Thread For: Gary Russell: I Want Loma Rematch For Myself; Not Fans, Not Media

Like i said earlier, see you in a year...

GRJ needs to move down to 118. I want to see Inoue vs GRJ at 118. That's a good fight with fast guys. GRJ's power looked good vs Gonzalez but since then he's been punching like a woodpecker at 126. He looks small for the weight. I mean, Loma was small for the weight, and GRJ was smaller than Loma. GRJ should move down to 118, not move up. GRJ vs Chocolatito is a good fight. All those guys can converge at 118, Rigo, Inoue, Donaire is back there, Chocolatito, and turn it into a money division. GRJ just isn't interesting at 126 and definitely not above.

You nuts? There is 122 division inbetween 118 and 126 and I doubt grj can safely make 122. what 118 lbs, man?

Gary can beat Tank but not too sure about Lomo it may be different if he fought more often and didnt fade towards the 8th or 9th round

IMO Russell's arms are too short and his defense too weak for him to ever be a threat to Loma. He can't keep Loma from getting inside and he can't fight from the outside to negate Loma's strengths. Will always be a bad matchup for Gary.

He’s a bit bigger, but he’s also just better.

If they were the same size, their fight would’ve went differently.

Oh no, outside of speed Loma is better in every category.

Nah

I would not pay a penny for a Loma vs Russell rematch just because I cannot see the dynamics of the fight changing from the first fight.


I would pay money for Russell vs Davis though as that fight is very interesting to me. Tank loves to walk guys down but he would be walking into the fastest set of hands this generation. I cannot pick a winner going into it. Very interesting to me.

[Yoseph]

I would like to see it.

Nah

Lol if I had 100 mil I wouldn't have to work again. They weighed the same and despite Showtime's announce teams claim that Russell was "competitive" during that fight he was not. He was badly outclassed, but hard to get around that "nah" argument of yours lol. That's the response of someone who has no argument. Don't worry though another month and nobody will be talking about Groundhog Gary til his annual appearance.

Nah

break it down then. in what exact areas was the size disadvantage a fight changing detriment to Russell? loma's footwork was too much for him. Russell is talented and good fighter, but loma is just plain better.
