    I think Selby has a great chance in that fight, not saying he wins it but I don't think he will be outclassed like most believe. I am a big fan of Selby and can see him more than holding his own against anyone in the division.

    This.

    The "Welsh Mayweather" tag would be the last time it gets used if Lee shared the same ring as Vasyl.

    Nothing to do with him being with Matchroom you clown, its an opinion and I rate Selby very highly, I don't think he wins but I think he would give a very good account of himself and it would be a very tough fight for Lomachenko.

    You actually know nothing about boxing , after about 3 rounds lomachenko would have his number so bad selby might even quit becuSe he would be that badly outclassed

    No matter how highly you rate selby you must be seriously underrating lomachenko if you think selby is any sort of a challenge

    Bad style match-up for Selby, I don't think anybody can outbox Lomachenko (not even Rigo).

    I'd like to see Selby take on GRJ before even thinking about fighting Lomachenko.

    Lomachenko was a top class amateur, arguably the greatest ever no doubting that. As a pro yes he has been very impressive in winning a world title so quickly but lets actually look at his performances. Lost to Salido who is a good fighter and may have been unlucky in that fight also, he beat Russell which has turned out to look like a very good win and he had one very easy fight I believe on the Mayweather vs Pacquiao undercard. Selby is a cracking fighter and I know he doesn't have the reputation of Lomachenko but he has a lot of ability still. Just because I believe it makes for a good close fight doesn't mean I know nothing about boxing. From a lot of your posts I could very easily have said the same about you.

    You have to be a real Matchroom or Sky Sports disciple to give Selby any chance whatsoever against Lomachenko, and I rate Lee. Lomachenko quite simply is better in every aspect of the sport.

    Selby would have a good chance.

    Lomachenko is obviously brilliant but he gets put on a pedestal because of his amateur career. He can be beaten as proven by Salido. Obviously this fight would be completely different and Salido fought dirty but people act as if Loma is untouchable.

    It would be a very tough fight for both imo.
