    But of course. I'm not trying to offend anyone but Welsh boxers do have a track record of milking them titles. :lol:

    yup. Gradovich was behind by 1 point, 2 at most of if you are biased. Then the famous british stoppage happened.

    Lomachenko will need to make sure no more than 2 punches connect on him at a time, or a british ref will jump in to save him, after he wins every single round leading to that chance flurry.

    This would be an easy win for Lomachenko. Selby looks tailor made for him and his ''Mayweather-esque'' defense isn't all that.


    The ''Welsh Mayweather'' he is not. He's still a good boxer, though.

    Selby won Gradovich confidently, but he's nowhere near Lomachenko. Still would like to see this fight better than Loma vs. Russel II.

    If he fights Loma no one will every call Selby "the Welsh Mayweather" ever again.

    Neither Selby or Gradovich is that good.

    Btw I agree Lomachenko would beat Selby, I have no doubt about that but give credit where credit is due, Selby did a number on Gradovich, it wasn't close.
