Is Lomachenko the Most Overhyped Boxer Today?

Wise boxing minds know the kid is a fantastic talent with much to prove. Only the foolhardy profess to know just how far the kid will; alternatively only the obtuse deny the kid's skill set.

 

AS A PROFESSIONAL FIGHTER? he is up there

 

You call it overhyping, I call it enthusiasm.

 

I'd say that title should go to Broner. Lose to PDL, beat DeMarco, and end up on the p4p list. Yeah, sounds about right.

 

It's Matthysse he's an ATG you you know Soto made him that

 

Yeah, but for a reason IMO.

One of the best promises, easily.

 

He's a bit overhyped , just like broner.

 

Nope GGG is. Lomenchenko has potential atleast. We dont know yet.

We've seen GGG get pizza faced by a C level junior middleweight yet he is a world beater who spars heavyweights.

 

Who is hyping him?

 

when is he going to turn pro isit after this years wsb?

 

look at the thread about him vs Broner

 

Yeah.

 

Oh don't worry I understand why he's getting so much hate already, I understand. Same reason canelo and golovkin will never be respected.

 

I think it's clear he's a special special talent. You only have to watch him to see that. Perfect footwork, great defence, picks his punches very well, goes to the body as good as anyone, and his style is almost perfect for the pro game. We have to remember this kid is possiy a top 5 amauter fighter ever, and one unlike Rigondeaux for instance who seems perfect for the pro ranks. So it's understable people are excited and predicting that he has the ability to do big things in the pro ranks, this isn't just a very good amatuer turning over, but someone who at worst is a top 2 of his generation with Rigondeaux.

That however doesn't mean it's a certainty, we need to see him at the top pro level over 12 rounds to answer a couple of question, mainly chin and stamina over the longer distance, before we can sure he will go over to the pro and be the fighter some of us think he will be.

I expect big things of him, can't wait for later this year when he turns full pro. I expect massive things for him, but the change over from amatuer to pro is never certain.
