“I have zero respect for (Lomachenko) for his comments that he made about Floyd’s legacy,” Ellerbe told BoxingScene.com. “The Tank (Davis) stuff, that’s fight talk, so you ignore that.

That person is just going to silently do their thing and prove it with their actions and not words," Lomachenko said to Loma TV.
