  • Barry Hearn: Lomachenko is very good but he's nothing special and not an ATG

    https://********/OOj9JcafpdM

    I wholeheartedly agree with bazza. Stop hyping up these idiots because they show flair and can move against overmatched opponents. Legends are made when they adapt to different styles and make it look pretty easy.

    Campbell hurt Loma a few times in there yesterday and if he had committed more and made use of his uppercut - who knows what would've happened? And Campbell isn't the strongest guy in the world, yet he put fear in Loma's heart.

    We would have a better idea of how great he is if he fought better opposition than someone like Campbell.

    But in fairness to Lomachenko some of that better opposition (Mikey Garcia, Tank Davis) has gone up in weight or is just too flat out scared to fight him right now.

      The problem with old boys like Hearn is that they talk like the greats were knocking out killer after killer, which isn’t true. They all had decision wins over contenders.

      Anyway I think it’s too early to say Loma is an ATG but let’s not rewrite history either and make out those fighters were doing things they weren’t

        When you fight a top 5 contender in your division who happens to be a olympic gold medalist and people label him as a bum.

        Then you're somehow not that bad.

        People said Loma was afraid and we would know how great he is when he fights Rigo and Walters, now that he steam rolled them, they were too small or inactive.

        If Loma beat Mickey or Tank, it will be Mickey was shot and Tank was green.

        We already know the song, so Loma better still go his own way and ignore NSB ******s period

        It was the same with Floyd, the better you are, the more haters you get in this sport...

          Luke is rated the #3 LW, both loses came from sd and he avenged one. Barry saying he got Luke hurt many times but couldnt finish? i wanted Loma to be first to stop him but Luke pulled some dirty tactics to survive, guess you gotta do what you can to survive but i dont understand this no fighter finishes all his opponents. Loma has dropped, stopped, or badly hurt every fighter hes been in with.

                Loma is great, but for me not in the Mayweather level of fighter. Also, P4P I'd take Tyson Fury over him quite easily as well.

                  Campbell was an Olympic gold medalist with a height and reach advantage. He is a highly skilled fighter. Its impressive for Loma to beat him.
