    Who's being pompous? I don't rate Walters, I never have, and even if Loma doesn't stop him, he'll still dominate him for 12 rounds and wide a wide UD.

    I was right twice last week, Gvozdyk stopped the unstoppable Chilemba and Kvovalev outboxed the almighty himself.

    I don't care about those other fights. You predicted Kovalev would knock out Ward and you were wrong. And that's all that matters to me.

    He still beat him, but didn't get the credit.

    Walters isn't some kind of defensive genius like Ward, or anything close to Ward, he'll lose by KO, but if he doesn't, he'll still lose.

    You can't have it both ways. You called a knockout, you were wrong. Ward got the decision and you were wrong again. You have your opinion on who you thought won the fight and have stated it numerous times, but at the end of the day Ward still won a close fight, not Kovalev.

    At least if Walters goes the distant don't be on here acting like you called it. Admit you thought Loma would KO Walters and give credit.

    A win is a win, I don't give a **** how he accomplishes it. That being said I predict Loma by KO, if he takes it by UD, so what, I'll still be right.

    But you don't get to gloat as if you called it that way. Period.

    The 70% of the fanbase who are complaining have a very valid complaint. Here's the reality if Kovalev had of officially won on the cards, I wouldn't be going all out trying to rub in under people's noses, I usually only do that if the match ends in a KO like Vargas-Ali, personally I wish Kovalev had of done more, forced the pace, not let fear of elbows or headbutts mess with his head so much, it wasn't a gloat worthy performance, regardless I usually say my piece and move on, not like the rest of the bul**** artists that inhabit this site gloating for days on end about something they have no right to gloat about.

    Well in the rematch if Kovalev hurts Ward again he now knows he needs to go for the kill. Even Kostya Tyszu was saying he has only himself to blame. He allowed Ward back into the fight, and lost a tight decision. I hope he learned from this.

    The way I see it is that Walters isn't quite as good as Kovalev whereas Loma is better than the current version of Ward. This fight will go similar to how many optimistic Ward fans predicted that fight would go. Walters can trouble Loma early but I don't see Loma getting lazy or complacent in there. Walters will be dangerous for 12 rounds and I think Lomachenko will always have that in his mind.

    My prediction is that this fight will go very similarly to how Usyk/Glowacki and Crawford/Postol went. Lomachenko will box with safety in mind. He will stun Walters once or twice and show that if he went on the offensive he may be able to end it. But he doesn't let himself get caught up in risky trades when he has the fight in the bag. The difference being he doesn't taunt and dance as much as Crawford did.

    Why everyone is comparing this fight with Kovalev vs Ward , both fights are completely different. For me Loma wins either with a late TKO or a wide UD. The fact that he has lost once makes me think , he learned from his mistakes and won't make them again. He is just amazing to watch , it's a complete different universe. In the Ward vs Kovalev case we had 2 undefeated fighters which were confused. Ward between rounds 1-6 and Kovalev between 7-12. It's Kovalev's mistake that he didn't go for KO , he knew he could be robbed , Ward reacted better in the end and with a pure luck got the win. This Saturday we won't see the same scenario. Lomachenko already got "robbed" and he learned from his mistakes.

    Nah. Salido beat him, but that's because of all the low blows, failure to make weight amongst other things. But if you're referring to what I just stated as the reason you say Loma got "robbed" instead of losing the fight legitimately , then please disregard my message BECAUSE IN THAT Sense HE Was "robbed", From A FAIR fight!
