In short, It can only be determined in the ring.
Maybe bigger fighters will find it easier to go 12 with Loma - but not Linares... If he doesn't quit, then the ref or the corner stops it.

Linares is a bigger, far better version of Gary Rusell Jr.

Same as Pacquiao who lost to Morales the first time, but demolished Hatton and De La Hoya. Size only matters if one can use it, and it's very hard to use size against Loma. The only effective tool against Loma could be speed (think Khan - Kotelnik), but statistically chances of matching Loma's speed are going down as he goes up.

Good fight on paper but can see it being very one sided. Linares is overrated and his style is bread.and butter for lomachenko. Wouldn't be shocked if he quit too
