    "It's impossible to be way better than Lomachenko" :lol::lol::lol: still laughing at this ask salido how he feels about that, loma is nowhere near la cruz technically, cruz if he were a 60kg would box the ears off loma

    Yeah, that's the main thing. Olympic Boxing is great, but the corruption is awful.

    I THINK Stevenson has Nikitin next. If Mayweather is signing Stevenson, he sure as hell better out-pay what the Russians paid the judges for Nikitin.

    As Conlan said today "The American kid's going to pick him to shreds and I wouldn't be surprised if they rob him too."

    Nikitin is already a battered mess after he's last two fights , it will be hilarious if he wins gold looking like the elephant man

    It's impossible to be "way better", which is what you said. The room for improvement to that level isn't there. I don't think it's possible to be "way better" than Rigo as an amateur, either.

    Look man, you seem quite happy with the narrative you've built in your head, so I'll leave you to it. Just quit making it sound like I hate a guy I'm a huge fan of just because I haven't bought into your fantasy.

    Damn shame we don't get to see Conlan vs Shakur, that'd have been an awesome s****.

    You're confusing flashiness with skill, you have no clue what you're talking about. La cruz will get flattened in the pros. Your boy is a glorified joan guzman. Lomachenko is a 2x gold medalist and only 1 year older.

    Although Yoka and Joyce have the better feet.. I'd expect them to repeat the Euro Games semis instead.. but in the final etc..

    fantasy? :lol: i think your buying into your own narrative mate, I can assure you 100% lomachenko is not as good a boxer as la cruz, cruz is a master and a master pure boxer loma isn't as skilled in that department, he had very fortunate decisions over toledo in the olympics and selimov in wsb, cruz is a different pedigree
