    Yep Kambosos has fought Lopez and Haney x 2 within his last 4 fights both men naturally much bigger than him that's 36 rounds with the elite big boys. Hughes was a bad style match up for him. Loma likes to box but he also loves to bring the fight and I think that could bring the best out of George.

    I'm seeing various billings for this fight - including lame ones like 'West Coast Collision' & 'Warriors of the Ring'.

    They need to get the billing of the fight correct - George v Loma - 'At World's End'.

    He isn't a bum but Lomachenko is a generational fighter.

    Question is, is he shot enough to make this competitive?

    And yes I know Teo beat him when he wasn't supposed to just as GKJ beat Teo when he himself wasn't supposed to but...styles make fights. Stylistically this is a catered-to-order feast for Loma.

    Not excited at all for this fight. Kambosos has 3 terrible performances in a row.

    Lomachenko and Kambosos have both been willing to fight every top guy in the division and this is the thing that I respect them for. Lomachenko is past his best at this stage of his career, but should have it easy against George. Loma by TKO.

    I agree that both have been willing to fight everybody they are both warriors. I don't think anybody at 135 is stopping Kambosos he takes that Spartan mentality seriously. No retreat no surrender he will be there until the final bell win or lose IMO.

    Going for Kambo he's awesome I love the guy but he's not going to win unless he can get one good shot in.

    Loma wins easily on points or by K.O

    I think Loma stops him. GKJ is too easy to hit and he will get caught with a counter shot coming in. Or just get caught coming in plain and simple.

    Bad, bad match up for GKJ. Loma wins by KO

    Quality fight this.

    Loma fights the man who beat the man who beat him. Also has a chance to reclaim glory at LW.

    If Loma wins this, and Davis beats Martin we have to see them in a unification fight surely.

    Loma has a legit shot at greatness here:

    Kambosos@135
    Davis@135
    Haney@140
    Lopez@140

    Winnable fights them and if he closes out his career winning those 4 I think everyone will consider him an ATG.

    I agree. But I'd swap out Haney and Teo for Shakur and someone else for the vacant WBO belt. Just so Loma gets the undisputed status he rightfully deserves

    He was basically undisputed anyway when he lost to Teo.

    At LWW he'd rule a new division and avenge two losses.

    I think he loses to Teo again tbh, especially considering the size differences at 140

    Unless age has gotten to Lomachenko, I would think a 118-110 decision or late stoppage in Lomas favor.
