    Yep. You need to pay attention to Gvozdyk's CCA and ring attire because it's simply on another level. Kovalev's CCA is absolutely immaculate too and I recall Twink Davis wearing a pair of shorts once that were such a delicious shade of blue I nearly died on the spot.

    Hagler's navy trunks with the baby blue waist and stripes is the sexiest.

    Hagler is a different breed. After retiring he moved to the most cool and stylish country in the world. the man has unreal taste.

    Ridiculous that Loma wouldn't fight him really.

    Good point, Italians are god's people and Hagler was such a refined and debonair gentleman that he knew that Italy was his true ancestral homeland.

    Yep. The best compliment I can pay Hagler is he was Brit Level in his prime.

    Pac’s parry, catch and shoot would be negated against southpaw Loma. While I agree that Pac’s feints used to be great, that part of his game has left him. He doesn’t move his upper body or feet anywhere near as much as he used to, and that’s what he used to feint off.
    A counterpuncher isn’t what can beat Lomachenko, especially not a short armed southpaw counter puncher.
    I disagree that Pac sets traps, I don’t think he knows what he’s doing most of the time. It’s that unpredictability that allows him to be successful.
    Lomachenko is a bit small for Pac, but I’d still expect him to win easily at this stage. Pac doesn’t have the power or work rate he used to have, he is less active in the ring now and he fatigues.
    Prime Pac might have been able to outwork Lomachenko, not this version.

    People still doubt Lomachenko’s power? Despite him one punching guys (world champions) at the highest weight he has fought at? It’s almost unparalleled the way Lomachenko has brought his power with him through the divisions. I think people get confused by the way Loma varies the power on his punches.
