Vasiliy Anatoliyovych Lomachenko Vs. Naoya Inoue @ 126—Who Wins And How?

Hard to say, Inoue has cracked a few chins, including those of bigger guys, already and is very fast so will definitely land on Loma too.
Right now, Loma wins on with size and ability to use it.
Few years from now, once Loma slows down, Inoue by KTFO.

 

The only glass your see is when Inoue smashes it.

 

This remains to be seen & I'm not so sure on that.

 

I like this fight too....

 

Loma wins this fairly easily. No disrespect to Inoue but he will just be too small. You don't come up divisions in weight and beat one of the top 3 pfp without some particular stylistic advantage. In this fight the come forward boxer puncher will be made to miss and get countered by the technician until stopped. Not even sure he can hurt Loma but this is boxing, almost anything can happen.

 

So you're saying inoue at 115 punches harder than linares or campbell at 135? Hell no.

 

Inoue via 7th round KTFO

 

Inoue in 126 lbs would not be the same dangerous fighter he was in lower weights. He is originally a light flyweight and currently is already in his third weight class. His speed will be much slower as a result of bulking up the muscles and his power unlikely have the same effect. Great fighters like Donaire and Hasegawa once tried it before and they didn't survive. Maybe he can simulate the success of Pacquaio using the same formula and method the later used, but it's a rare case that a boxer from lower weight can fight so far exceeding his original frame.

Maybe if Inoue facing the likes of Valdez or Xu Can, I think he'd still have chance. But Lomachenko ? That's too much. Not only Loma is bigger, he is whole different league much higher level opponent than he ever faced.

 

Actually Rigo rejected the fight when they originally talked about making it happen (at the lighter weight). Then Rigo realised that he had nothing else so he pursued the fight at 130, he made it happen and Lomachenko obliged. Rigo liked the higher weight because it took the pressure off from the inevitable loss, same as Mikey against Spence.
Also, you don’t just randomly move up and down in weight when you have targets in a particular weight division.
So ignore facts, ignore context, ignore what happens. Let’s hold hands and hate Lomachenko together.

 

So you think Ancajas would beat Inoue, but you think Inoue is going to jump up 2 weight classes to beat Loma? Yeah, if Loma is drained, he would get knocked out, but no way anyone logical would bet on Inoue jumping 2 weight classes and beating a Loma on the same form as his previous fight at 126. There's weight classes for a reason. We saw it with Loma/Rigo and Mikey/Spence.

 

Loma is technically superior and naturally far bigger and stronger.

Inoue literally has nothing on him.

And Im a fan of Inoue.

 

Yes they have...

 

Actually the fighters agreed to everything at 126. Arum nixed it by making a lowball offer.

 

Inoue will move up the weights & his punches will be harder that's what I'm saying.
BTW Inoue is 118lb
