I just dislike a guy moving up before clearing a division Especially a P4p guy like Loma Thats why I don't like Mikey going to 140 for a BELT when Linares & Easter both at 135 right there
Now I hope Linares-Loma falls through & we get Loma-Berchelt Loma can simply move up if/after he beats Berchelt
I'd be down for Loma-Berchelt. I agree with El Chicano, I prefer when a dude clears out a division before moving up unless he's in a dead division or he can't make weight. I mean, Berchelt would give Linares a damn good fight himself if he moved up
So maybe he should! If he is that good. The super-featherweight division will be quite dull now anyway.
Berchelt is one of my favorite active fighters. He's been for years now. That said, even though his style can potentially give Loma problems he just doesn't have the skill to really pull off the upset. Now what I really want to see is to see him fight Tank Davis. Who is the single most protected fighter in boxing right now. Berchelt will rip the kid's ear off.
And a couple of words again on who wanted to fight who. Loma in December asked his fans who would they like him to fight next: This content is protected I personally voted for Berchelt there. Unfortunately he only received 4%... And now try to find Lomachenko's name in Berchelt's twitter. It only comes there when people bug him in comments "fight Loma" or when he's asked directly by journalists "do you want to fight Lomachenko?". I know he had some hand injury, so maybe, just maybe, it's because of that. Maybe he needed some time to get his confidence back after a period of inactivity... Do I personally believe in that? I'm not sure, frankly speaking.
It be nice wouldn't it. The killers he's fought already he has broken with ease. Like a hot knife through butter i've heard some say !
Loma vs Beltran is a joke fight Beltran barely scraped by his last opponent, arguably lost. Beltran needs to focus on his title and that’s it. Loma has better fish to fry. Uncle bob please don’t make Loma Beltran for his “third” title in “third” weightclass
Yup I never really ratee Beltran Berchelt is the true test Espn would eat it up when Loma dominates a vert average Beltran My ideal fights for Loma Berchelt Linares Mikey
Beating all three of those guys would do wonders for Loma legascy. Beating Mikey (tough) would put him p4p no 1
Depends. If politics drag and stall the process then moving up is sometimes the better option. Personally I'd like to see Lomachenko clean house before taking Linares as well.
