Zzzz. Nakatani is damaged goods at this point.

[Monty Fisto]

nakatani will destroy him. this man is unstoppable and had lopez worried. hes also about 6 foot 5.

I know you're probably joking, but just in case you're not, Nakatani isn't even six foot.

We know Devin, Ryan, Davis, and Teo dont want to fight Loma.

[tokon]

Nakatani or Verdejo would put him there. Both tough and rough fights. If I was his manager I'd pick Verdejo.

Yes, both are credible opponents and I'd pick verdejo too!

Thanks.

Bob Arum has revealed that Vasyl Lomachenko vs Masayoshi Nakatani is being eyed as the comeback fight for Loma this summer. Nakatani was an awkward test for Teofimo Lopez and recovered from that loss by knocking out Felix Verdejo last year. [@IFLTV] pic.twitter.com/zeuyzQSRQw

While that scenerio would be a good option, I don't think Loma should walk straight into a title shot - at any weight. Whichever weight he decides to continue on at (from what Arum is quoted it looks like 135), I think he needs to beat at least one top 5 fighter and earn his shot.

If Loma stays at 135, then Nakatani will be a great test. I just don't understand why Top Rank is not trying to get Berchelt vs. Lomachenko? Miguel Berchelt is 37-1 w/ 33 KOs, and has not loss since 2014! He should be a perfect opponent for Lomachenko at 130 or 135! I think the fight is way overdue!

Staying at 135 is not a good move

[PrBoxing88]

Nah, Nakatani needs to give Verdejo a rematch i think.

I think they want to match Berchelt against herring if he beats Frampton.
