Comments Thread For: Arum Eyeing Lomachenko Comeback Fight Against Masayoshi Nakatani In Summer

[Apollo7]

Nakatani seems like a warrior who will fight anyone, I like him. Not many people seem interested in facing Loma now he hasn't got the belts so this is a decent fight. Nakatani is huge for a LW, he's tough and relentless so he should make Loma work hard. Will be impressed if Loma can be the first to stop him.

Maybe Loma's pride isn't gonna let him come back down to 130, or perhaps now he's older he's doesn't fancy the cut.

Arum might have better fights for him at 130 for him to choose from: berchelt, valdez, herring, frampton, stevenson.

Maybe fight one of the losers to earn a title shot?

I think this is the ideal scenario: Loma fights the winner of Berchelt vs. Valdez, Stevenson fights the winner of Herring vs. Frampton, the winners unify at 130! All in-house fights for TR and ESPN, and if it's Loma vs. Stevenson, that's HUGE!

The fight, if possible, should take place in Japan! SOLD OUT!

That may end loma’s career. These Japanese cats are absolute warriors

Good I'm just ready to see my guy back in the ring

Vaseline Lomachenko. That's a tough fight and it's logical. Lomas hardcore fanbase won't be able to handle another loss and this is a loseable fight for vaseline

Nakatani is a good fighter. Hard to look great against. It will be a tough fight but if Lomachenko can make it look easy, it would look good on him. He could have easily taken a much tougher fight. Like some Szeremeta level opponent.

Ridiculous that Lopez won't give him a rematch. Scared.

Lomachenko wasn’t planning on giving Lopez a rematch had he won. That’s why he opted not to add a rematch clause in the contract. That and being prideful, showing off. Thought Lopez was going to be so easy he wanted to prove a point and not add one.

Are they really?

Inoue is good, so is Nakatani.

Ioka is a decent fighter.

But the rest i’ve seen in top 10’s over the last 10 years were overhyped and seldom fought outside of Japan. And when they did, got destroyed.

I was not expecting these 2 to battle it out, but this fight is very intriguing. Nakatani can hurt Loma and will make this an interesting fight. Looking forward to this one being made.
