He gasses and fights in spurts, that's why he lost to Salido. If he fixes this then he'll have no holes in his game and will truly become the perfect fighter. He already has the power, speed, reflexes, and supreme skill.
If we're just going off of skills I'd have to give to GGG. Iron chin, huge power, great jab, great straight, great body body punching, great balance, great precision, great footwork, great ring IQ. I could go on, but this guy has boxing down right now.
That was because it was his 2nd pro fight. He may have had 300+ amateur fights, that doesn't simulate a 12 round fight
lol Salido was two weight classes above him, fought an extremely dirty fight and still was about to be taken out at the end. I have also seen no evidence of him "gassing" since Salido was in worse shape at the end than Lomachenko. I guess I have to respectfully disagree with you.
The man has like 6 fights. He still fights in spurts and gasses. That Salido fight did more harm than good. He can step on the gas if he feels the knock out is coming, he could of had Russel Jr out, but he's still not used to fighting 12 round fights. Once he fully matures to a pro boxer, then he'll be the perfect boxer. Even now, I can't see anyone from FW-LW ****ing with him. Unless Mickey Garcia decides to campaign around those weights.
I realize that Salido is a cheating Mexican roider, I think everybody knows that. That still doesn't change the fact that Loma didn't throw enough punches in the early rounds and gassed late in the fight, otherwise he'd of knocked out Salido. We saw what happened when he let his hands go, the man almost KO'd the cheater.
The man absorbed punches from the hardest hitting SMW's in recent history. We've also seen what a two handed Ward is capable of. :yep
In the ring, I'd say Andre Ward is the most complete fighter. He's fast, has superb technique, great footwork, great defensive skills and is probably the best inside fighter in the game right now. It's a shame out of the ring he's a complete train wreck, never have I seen a fighter with so much ability do so little with it. His boxing skills are only surpassed by his ability to sabotage his own career.
